His moment will come Bloody right. When fans, commentators and pundits all say the same thing you have to assume there is something in the conspiracy theories of teams not viewed as a draw winning. And while we're on the subject, I'll take your offside and raise you the red card decision, it was my understanding referees are genuinely more lenient towards the end of games. Eufa couldn't have the tournament favourites getting beat on their first game I suppose. I can make these comments now because when Daka gets screwed in Moscow I'll be keeping my mouth firmly shut!

I just meant fitting them all in somewhere. Daka will have to have some game time. More he plays the better he'll get too.
Raj Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 I might be missing something or everyone's hype pre game I was expecting him to be like a young Ronaldo. I'm sure he will come good though
drumbeat Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 I think people can see that with Daka there's some work to do yet. Fortunately, there's a good deal to work with. Everyone coming into the Premier League finds it a step up, it takes time to adapt. You could Soumare coming more into the game as it went on, Daka's step up is a bit higher than from Ligue 1.
StanSP Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 Gutted for him not to get his goal as it looked level/onside to me. He deserved it too. Impressed with his press and helped us put their defence under pressure. I think he should play on Sunday. 1
Switzfox Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 No chance he starts on Sunday. But he will play against Millwall and probably get some minutes or another start in Warsaw so we will start to see a bit more of him now. Give it a few games and we will see if we have a player or not. I suspect he will be very good eventually but just needs some time to adjust to our style and learn a bit from Vardy.
Nick Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 Daka has proper pace. He’ll be our next Vardy but not quite yet. He needs time. 1
LVFox Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 Thought he looked good through the middle, but a little raw. Any idea why he was moved to RW after 2”30 minutes or so? Thought it worked better with him up top and Ayoze on the right
lcfcell Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 The guy is clearly a great finisher. Just a bit of a problem we don’t create any chances 1
Pliskin Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 If pipes was saying he doesn’t think he’s the one I whole heartedly disagree. He shows last night with his finish that he is an instinctive finisher. He will adjust and when he does he will be amazing. Ask Chelsea fans what they thought of Drogba early into his career, and then look what happened. You can tell he is class, he needs to play some games to adapt and then he will be flying. 1
Scanchez Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 I think he'll bag a few against the other teams in our group.

I liked the look of him up top and Nacho in behind but when he went out wide he didn’t really threaten that much.

Pliskin Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 Stick Daka up top against Millwall, and leave him up too against Millwall. 3
Hales Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 He needs a run of games. After yesterday I really want to see more of him and Soumare and less of others that are not in form! 4
Ric Flair Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 Gutted he didn't get that goal given, it was a rasping finish. 3

However, I'd suggest that issue was more to do with Soumare's first half performance & Kelechi's poor defensive ability (Maddison offered far more in that regard when bought on but god forbid anyone praise him on this forum!), than Daka not doing his work up top.
HybridFox Posted 17 September 2021 Posted 17 September 2021 In a cynical way, having had his first goal chalked off, it could just ignite that fire that he really wants it now. There's merits in continuity against Brighton. But have a feeling he'll have to wait until the cup game against Millwall.
Vardinio'sCat Posted 18 September 2021 Posted 18 September 2021 Napoli then Millwall as your first 2 games? Bit of a contrast... 1
beepee1984 Posted 19 September 2021 Posted 19 September 2021 Just thinking, why did we pay £30 million for a striker Rodgers has only used in the League for only 26 Minutes in the first 5 games. Is he just going to be a B team striker? Europa and Cup only

Europa and Cup only ANY striker we bought would probably have played the same amount because Vardy has started well and whoever came in wasn't going to come in and be number 1 choice ahead of him. Now we have cup games starting up Daka will get to start plenty of games as Vardy will need to be rested. Edited 19 September 2021 by moore_94
