That's the right word too. The main stand can't wait to jump on him. He tries stuff, it doesn't always comes off. I'd like to see him see the season out. Doubt we'd be able to sign better.

Fruitygoo Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 He played ok in our good spell last year but so did fane and hardley anyone praises him. He kept it simple but now he can't seem to do that... I don't hate him and its ridiculous to say i do... I just think hes average at best and we can do better.

They can't wait to jump on him. Largely the forward brigade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's hardly a shining beacon of light in an average league two side. If someome offered ANY amount of money id snatch their hands ofd. Hes not the sole reason we are where we are but he can go for me. I dont think we'd be any worse off without him. I do like the way he gives 100% but you watch him. Hes generaly either chasing one of his misplaced passes, or chasing a man because he was out of position. Is the system helping him... No... He picks the ball up too deep but even if we change that he wouldn't stand out. If he was as good as he thinks he is.... He wouldn't be with us. What is he good at? Running with ball? Too often goes down blind alleys Getting us forward? Too often slows play down Winning the ball? Nope Bringing other players in? Holds on too long Dan Gardner would be a better player if he was too busy showing off Dan Gardner.... So who would play instead of him, if he was to be injured tommorrow? No one is even close to being a suitable replacement, he might not be the best. He is the best of a bad bunch ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he makes mistakes but that's because he wants the ball 10x more than anyone else. Passion, pride, effort and charisma. Get off his fucking back. Probably the same idiots who wanked over Placide and Richie. Look where that got us. His fucking run at Hampton, in the cold and wet rain, in the 88th minute, MIGHT have saved other club. 50K. 85K WHEN we beat Maidstone. Then 850K if we draw a top prem team away. Without DG that wouldn't have happened, fact. Yes he makes bad passes but that's because he's the only fucker who wants it. PS. Who signed him? The last line made me piss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maouche would most probably be Bunn's immediate choice, much to KIG's delight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a ridiculous overstatement. Yes, his run resulted in a goal but his overall performance was poor against non-league opposition. His two recent relegations from League One would suggest he's not great at that level and can anyone really convince themself that he's anything better than average in League Two? I don't disagree with the 'get off his back' sentiment; there's no point in giving any player stick. At the same time, people should be allowed to discuss their opinions of players, just as you've expressed yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 The best midfielder in the club by some distance. If he goes in Jan and trampoline shins Fane comes back we will realise what we have let go. DG is a decent player. Not brilliant but we have far worse in his position. I'd be keeping him even if a bit of cash is waved our way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sort of player who can instigate a counter attack with a deft turn and incisive through ball or a lung bursting run the length of the pitch; and then in the next move mis-hit a five yard pass to the opposition or get caught in possession in the middle of the park. At the moment he is either carrying an injury or needs a rest. Decent player still prone to making too many mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusunga_Is_God Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 No doubt he'll be absolutely stellar at Fleetwood. Maouche is as good if not better than DG so shouldn't be too hard to source a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Maouche hasnt got the physicality to mix it in the league. There are plenty of Danny G's out there but I wouldn't trust us to find one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Lyden will step up to the late after Saturday's second half showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
