You can go back to any of these threads about pretty much any striker we have ever had, including Vardy, and see similar being said.

Yeah, I can't remeber exactly when it happened but I think West Brom bid 3 or 4 million for Vardy and there was the usual comedy geniuses do the "I'll drive him there myself"

I'm by no means saying Daka will turn out to do what Kelechi did for us but he had exact same after his 1 in 31 or whatever it was. 

 

We do love to label players competition winners on here.

Yes, so what the hell has happened to him since then.  Can't control a ball, constantly falls over, muscled too easily off the ball, never uses his pace because he falls over.  Stats, don't lye.  Woeful, striker in every department.

 

I am convinced the real Daka was kidnapped the one we now have is his identical twin brother, pub player at best.

He was still bad then. A half decent goalkeeper would have saved the first goal in that hat trick anyway.

My wife is convinced he’s Johanes off Strictly!

I always think this. In the handful of games Daka has looked good for us - and appreciate there is not a lot. It’s when he has played in 2. Two that jump - his hattrick in Europe - Kelechi was the second striker. Brighton where we got battered, Kel again was the striker. 
 

Ayew is not a 10. And we’ve had some fabulous players in the 10 role. We are dependent on Ramsey hitting the ground running and make that spot his. I don’t think Daka can play as a lone striker. However, with Ayew, it might take a bit of the burden off him, allow him to occupy the box. Have some to take the hits. 
 

It’s the only reason I’d like to see Ayew back starting. If we are going to have a striker/goal scorer this year, it’s going to be Daka if we don’t sign anybody. Maybe adapting the formation for him wouldn’t be the worse thing.

The last few games Bobby Reid has pretty much started behind him and most the time runs next to him. 
 

He works hard but he is average. My nan would beat him to a header, not as quick as he once was dubbed. 
 

He’s lucky the rest of the team around him should mean we don’t rely on his goals

Shame he doesn't have the balance of Johanes, Daka can't even walk without falling over😂

Pipes on the WYS pod suggested shifting Daka wide to utilise his pace.

 

For all his faults, workrate and pace are not two of them.

 

Worth a go trying him from the left with the instruction to take his fullback on and push us up the pitch.

 

Could be our very own Forrest Gump.

Wingers aren't our issue though, we have three very capable / good options at this level when Stephy is fit. Why would we put a crap striker on the wing at the expense of one of them? Naff idea imo

We’ve done this before, and realised he can’t actually run with the ball without standing on it.

The energizer bunny has great workrate with no actual use that’s the closest analogy to Daka.

Out wings are probably our strongest positions. We don't need him there

I agree.

 

I'd have him so wide that he's off the pitch, out of the ground and using his searing pace to run all the way to the train station and off to pastures new.

 

Although he'd probably get on the wrong train or at least fall over tying to board it.

It's got the point now where he is that bad, you class a good game as him being completely forgettable, rather than just remembering him falling over his own legs.

33 games without a goal. Honestly he just does not look like he is ever going to score again. I don't dislike him but I have no respect for him. He does nothing well.

He looks a really nice lad, but as a footballer he’s an absolute joke

1 goal in his last 46 league appearances and 21 of those in champ
