I'm going to regret saying this now because, you watch, he'll have an absolute stinker haha. But watch him tonight. Spend as much of the game as you can just watching Daka and pay attention to some of the nuance of what he does. He contributes quite a lot of little bits of play that go completely unnoticed the second he slices one pass in to touch or miscontrols the ball in a funny way. 3

He's created some of our better opportunities of the season too, James' goal against Wrexham was like the first good chance we'd created all season 1
Paninistickers Posted 10 March Posted 10 March Treated like total shite yet again. Whatever people make of him, every manager treats him like shite. I just don't get it. 2 1
Hales Posted 10 March Posted 10 March He scores, runs his little socks off, gets some confidence........and then gets dropped for a lump of poo 3

Finnegan Posted 10 March Posted 10 March The commentator literally just said it was strange to see Ayew outside the penalty area. 1

You used to fascinate me. Thought it was so cool we had a black player back then, despite you never being in the first team

LcFc_Smiv Posted 10 March Posted 10 March The shot from outside the area was typical Patson, it tickled me, which is funnily enough what he did to the ball! 1

But look at the alternative at the moment, yes he’s not worth what we paid etc., but he offers miles more in general than Ayew does. Ayew also does not score regularly, does not press, doesn’t like to carry or pass it forward, poor first touch, he doesn’t get in the box… he isn’t a striker.

Then you get a striker in that does his job of scoring
Mike Oxlong Posted 10 March Posted 10 March He has a very broad repertoire of how to fluff his lines. I'd love to see a reading of his brain activity when a chance beckons

Well let’s make a link here. He has scored a couple in recent games including the last game and gets dropped. Do you think getting dropped after scoring is a way to help any striker become prolific? 1

I'm not sure John that why I couldn't manage LCFC, but I do know squad rotation is very important and you have to be something very special, ie Vardy, to be a obtain the can't do without title. Actually love Daka's work rate and the way he stretches the game but can't do without doesn't apply to him. For me anyway.

I thought Rowetthad messed up with the selection of Reid and Ayew but fortunately it worked, even though Ayew was a waste of space still. But it was just the point that commenting that Daka is not prolific whilst the conversation is about him being dropped after a good game and a goal last time out is part of the problem. He’s not exactly been overplayed this season so not sure leaving him out last night was necessary. Honestly he probably would be able to play 2 90’s a week as he at least had fitness and energy that a lot of them lack. His confidence has clearly been destroyed for quite some time now to the point where even though we have seen him for 4 and a half years now, do we actually know how good/bad/awful he really is?

To put It politely, he's not even good enough in the mediocre Championship. His presence in the team is living proof of the recruitment and financial mess of the last 5 years 1
Leicester_Loyal Posted 21 March Posted 21 March I can't wait to see the back of him and Ayew, as well as about 80% of our players. This bloke has been a useless oaf for 99% of his minutes here, what a waste of tens of millions of pounds. 4
Nods Posted 21 March Posted 21 March Has he ever struck a ball well on his right foot in his time here? I'm being serious.
Blue ROI Posted 21 March Posted 21 March I defended Slimani as he at least scored important goals in 2016/17. And Akinbiyi wasn't here all that long. Considering those and how long he's been here Daka has to be strongly considered our worst striker.
