These doc arguments are becoming so tedious and repetitious that I am starting to long for the days when we had adama arguments...

Careful, he ain't signed elsewhere yet...

I could understand this view on another thread but this one is about Doc

 

[The Dude]

He is a defender. He needs to be more effective in the keeping the ball out of our net bit. Going forward is window dressing.

Ditto Semedo. Who's without the window dressing. Obviously.

One season aside, Doc's crossing assists stack up well v Adama!

Same as Doherty as RB. And without the being arsed.

Semedo is a much better defender than Doherty.

Semedo is a much better defender than Doherty.

Barely.or is that bearly?

To answer the poll the answer was £15m.

Tbf this is the first argument about Doc since his resigning I think, all other stuff has been an anti Doc pile on, at least Dude is giving a bit of balance (even if he is wrong)

 

[AndyWolves]

We should have play doc right midfield and Adama at RB.

More a reflection on Adama, than the quality of Doherty

 

[Law's Bus]

At the end of the day, I think everyone would be delighted with eating humble pie if Doherty is a success.

However, having seen him for years where he was consistently a terrible full-back, everyone is rightly sceptical about him being anything other than a terrible full-back.

Again, I'll remind people that Doherty was third choice for Nuno's bespoke right wing-back role, which, yes, he did well in when we played it. But that's like re-signing the second coming of Bully and playing him as a winger - he'd have been awful at it.

I think this account may be one of those sock puppet social media company businesses that famous folks use.

Was he?

 

[prawnking]

On Doc v Semedo - I'd be quite happy if we'd never re-signed Doc and also fucked Semedo off for a better player this summer too

 

[Kenny]

Was he?

Think German Phil was his 1st choice but he was broken
Tried everything he could to get Jordan Graham to play as a RWB. He didn't like it and later moved to Birmingham and was used as a RWB

Would say he was 2nd choice but have to give credit to Doc as he sorted his shit out under Nuno. Changed his diet, attitude to training and got the results.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Was he?

German Phil was the original idea but he was broken immediately

He then wanted Jordan Graham to play there and he said no

Credit has to go to Doc for how he adapted to that role and while it should be a given, he actually got himself fit for the first time ever rather than waddling round with a massive gut. But that role no longer exists so it's folly to pretend he'll have the same attacking output now, it pretty much isn't possible. Enough of us have seen him at RB for Spurs and Ireland and he was not good.

I would never have predicted how effective a wingback he'd become over the next three years, outside of the elite players he was as good as anyone when playing to his strengths. A WB not a FB.
