I'm as excited about Daka as the next guy.  But half of FT is now dropping Vardy faster than Claude Puel.

 

This is the PL top scorers list

 

 

 

Let's enjoy our GOAT leading the line a little longer.  BR can continue to work Daka in more and more, without declaring him the regular starter

 

 

It's absolutely nuts! Top goalscoring striker in the league and people want him dropped. Madness.

Vardy is still clear. JV scores goals that Daka doesn't even attempt.

 

Vardy is more refined and will make the right decisions and cute finishes more often, but daka is more explosive and potentially creates more room for the rest of the team from that. Basically Daka is more similar in playstyle to 15/16 vardy in my opinion, chaotic but uncontainable, whereas vardy now can go missing a fair bit but has impact when it counts. What really excites me about Daka is that 5 or so years down the line he will hopefully have a mix of prime Vardy's athleticism and the game intelligence that vardy has currently, i always wonder what it would have been like if vardy's physical and mental prime had lined up.

Glad we signed him over Edouard.

Our recruitment under Rodgers has been fairly shocking, but signing Daka over Edouard has been by far the best decision they’ve made

[OrielCaziado]

He’s got a million mile to go to be compared to Vardy but he’s at least offering us the chance to rest the greatest of all time. I personally don’t think he’d score half the amount of goals the main man would score in the equivalent games but he’s a massive plus to help Jamie stay fresh.

Same although I do think Edouard may come good in time in the PL.

I actually think he's more of a wide forward as he comes alive in those channels between the centre back and full back as seen from his assists today. Vardy plays far more on instinct whereas Daka is more measured in his approach as seen from his assists today. He actually reminds me of Sadio Mane and if he can get close to those levels, we've got one hell of a player.

He can play a bit, this lad.

I reckon too.

His movement for his goal was just pure world class striking spidy sense. Simple, but genius at the same time. Guy is a legit baller. 

[Harpenden Fox]

Vardyism is still our dominant religion, but the Dakarites are gaining devotees week on week.

 

Behold, a new saviour was born. And they shall sing:

 

O come all ye faithful,

Patson is triumphant.

 

Amen

[Dahnsouff]

Plenty of games for both, no need for the either/or mentality,  I do not think it’s wise to stunt Daka’s development by only starting Vardy, just as much as we don’t need to only start Daka at the cost of benching our top scorer. The time of sharing is here.

Real deal. Movement, pace, passing and a fabulous ice cold finisher. The lads got it all.

I don't think people are happy to see him dropped. They are happy that we have a like for like replacement that allows Vardy to rest and be phased out into his retirement or whatever without leaving a massive void. On top of that Daka has something else to his game which allows a change in approach and a plan B when things may not be working.

 

It's great to have both.

Remember when we were brigaded 2 summers ago by Celtic fans saying Edouard was better than prime vardy 🤣

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Why the dichotomy in views about Patson and Jamie by some? We are lucky. It's transition time and let's enjoy both to the max and hopefully they'll get the game time and opportunities that allows that transition to work effortlessly. No rush.

Yes, I thought that too actually. I wonder how a front 3 of Vardy, Iheanacho and Daka would fare? Pretty scary for the opposition I'd have thought!

 

Behind them if all fit how about:

 

Schmeichel 

Ricardo Fofana Evans JJ 

                 Ndidi 

        Tielemans KDH (or Soumare 

 

(admittedly, no room initially there for Maddison in that formation but for me, it's always been about putting your best team out rather than your best players).

Thought it'd be a couple of seasons before they came calling but might as well bed him in now for when Benzema winds down.

[Ric Flair]

He just seems like one of those people that makes you feel safe when you look at him. He's a bloody lovely man and I'll repeat, he will be in the top 3 strikers in the world by 2023.
