Every day that goes by, passing up on Richard Kone looks worse and worse....braindead!

He didn’t want to come to us. Apparently he wanted to stay in the London area!

When he came on he reminded me of a child playing at their local park! 

He was trying to take on 2-3 players at once and then decided to take every corner that we won despite his set pieces being woeful!!

 

Genuinely, my 11 year old son whips in a better corner than Ayew and he can put it in the same area every time. I find it astonishing that a professional footballer can be so bad at set pieces.

At least Daka, for his faults, tried to pass and move and also actually move. Ayew plays at his own snails pace, almost oblivious to the match situation.

He's a greedy bastard hangs onto the ball way too long takes free kicks corners etc he's obviously got main character syndrome. He doesn't deserve that number 9 shirt.,from Vardy to him tells you all you need to know what's wrong this club.

The Haaland maths is a bit out 🤣

He assisted two of his own goals, took the corner and headed it in. Impressive… but no Jordan Ayew!

Our best CF option to how we want to play. 
 

How people think Daka is the answer is beyond me, atleast Ayew can hold the ball up, play back to goal and be physical to allow the x2 10’s to play into/beyond

 

Daka doesn’t even look fast anymore 🤣

We don't have a good option

 

Yes Ayew holds the ball up well, but often for far too long, if only he played the ball better

 

Ayew drops too deep and Daka positions himself against the last defence and the threat of his pace is enough to get defenders to drop back and create a gap for the number 10s  to play 

 

I would keep swapping them until one actually does something useful

Not saying we have good options, it’s just he’s the best we have. 
 

What an earth do you think Daka offers as a player individually or towards the team? You say his pace on the last man but I’m watching him lose races, gets out muscled by every defender he’s come across and that’s even if your lucky enough to see him stay on his feet. All well and good stretching the game but when your hitting in behind and losing it every time for either the opposition to either regain possession or out for goal kicks it’s not worth him being there. 
 

We ultimately play 343 in possession  with x2 10’s. A CF dropping deep with rotation of runners from the 10’s is effective for the team. As with the goal then, atleast you can hit the 9 who can pin his CB to play off too. You’re not going to get pace in behind with him but 1. The wingers are fast enough to give that outlet 2. Majority of the teams sit deeper against us. 
 

Ayew gives the team alot more than Daka. Honestly after about 5 years of Daka and from what has been seen of him this season without the tag of being in Vardys shadow, he’s failed miserably and offered the team nothing.

I'm not saying Daka is any good, but I am saying his style of play suits us more than Ayews

 

If we are playing 2 x 10s, Ayew dropping in creates a crowd and there defence can step up whereas Daka pushes up and creates space

 

Just with Daka on the pitch against Swansea meant the defence could not step up and this allowed the number 10's the space they needed. On that day it was Reid and James creating the chances.

Today Ayew did well to create the goal (although Ramsey had a lot to do), but in my opinion have the space in front of the centre backs where the 10's have space creates more goals like James side footing his goal in the other week and as Ayew too often refuses to release the ball the chance has gone.

 

Daka is no Vardy and I want to see him replaced, I don't overly mind if Ayew is the number 9 I just want him to keep their defence pushed back - I repeat it is not the performance Daka puts in, but the tactic he is asked to play when selected I prefer

Scored about 2 goals in a 16 year professional career as a striker. Has no pace, bumbles around like a lost dementia patient. Holds the ball up - big whoop, just makes us even more slow and ponderous.

Can't stand him. Useless, Slow and Lazy. At least Daka tries.

When does Daka try? He gets out muscled, out run and just when you think he might do something he falls over. Ayew is limited but not as much as Daka is. Who has had the longest career in the premier league?
