The Kieran Dowell appreciation thread

[toffeeste]

I'm guessing from your user that you know more about him than we do?
Any insights?

As stated watching him in the youth set ups and odd performances for the first team.

Really expected this season was the season he broke in to the first team.

Still expecting big things. Hoping he is a regular starter. Hes has no narural position. He can play wide left or wide right or a number ten. Box to box midfielder not affraid ro put a foot in.

Either get in the box late or drift just outside like paul scholes.

If he gets 12 or more goals. That would be a good return for his first proper full season.

Love your belief in him, and in his cameo vs Millwall he showed a touch of class.

12 goals would be a real return. Be surprised if he produces that. This is a tough old league, obviously not the same class as Prem, but very tough and fiercely competitive.

Thank you I hope you're right about him.

Hes got one hell of a shot on him though. Scored some crackers this pre season and for the u23s.

Give him space outside the area and he will test the keeper.

Big test. U23s is not the same as the championship but still koeman rates him.highly

Just seen highlights. Good finish and his vision to see the forward one on one. Shame the guy didnt put it away. He looked like he played ok. Was he wide right or central? Seemed to have an open role.

Doea like to hit it from outside the box. Wasnt clean but went in.

He had a sizeable impact on the game - the lad that he replaced had been a passenger and Dowell's quality showed immediately after coming on. He seemed to have a fairly free role between midfield and attack which suited him nicely.

Brentford were going in quite hard on him so I think the word is already out that this boy is something different.

He's a joy to watch - it's a delight to have him in a Forest shirt.

Mark Warburton will always set up his side with 2 or 3 "free roles". He's a technical player and is playing under the right gaffer.

Had some good touches and played some great passes. Ruthless from Warburton to yank Clough despite us winning but impressive move and showed we wanted to get on the ball more, had a half-decent impact when he got on the ball.

[Thomas Freedman]

I hope he enjoys his time here, id love him to stay permanently

Never happen. Everton value him highly.

Shame that Clough got bullied out of the game as he obviously has quality. Dowell's size gives him the advantage

[Ravi]

Dowell would walk into any team in the Championship. That's the difference.


He could be this season's Tammy Abraham.

Weird though because there isn't that much in it.

Clough is 1.70 m and 64 kg, Dowell is both taller (1.7 and lighter (59) so you'd expect of the two that the stockier one would be harder to push around.

Probably not a case of what you have but how you use it.

[Mr. MariAndy!s]

He's taller than 5'10", isn't he?

[Spaceman]

Not at the height mentioned, even I am taller and I am very small.

[Flagman]

I'm quite short for my height.

[BaconSaver]

He was excellent yesterday. Clough just couldn't get in the game at all, he was getting bullied off the ball every time it went near him. Dowell got involved a lot more. Talking of Clough, I just watched back the iFollow highlights and one of their players looked like he booted him but Clough didn't react.

When we're those stats updated? When Dowell was 15? He's taller than that and certainly going to be heavier than Clough.

Having a free role is one thing, but not bothering about tracking runs when we're 2 goals up away from home is another. Good player, but both Clough and Dowell played a big part in allowing Brentford to run into our half way too easily!
Maybe that was the plan, but it looked naive at times.

You're taller than me.

But then, most people are.

The sign of a confident manager. Changed a winning team at ht

Looks about the same height as Cohen and he's about 6 foot or just above 6 foot.

Dowell was still shielding and protecting the ball well when Brentford players were harrying him and pushing him in the back.

I was really impressed with this kid after seeing him live. The ball sticks to him and you always feel he's going to find a teammate with a pass that will open up the opposition. If not, it'll still be a good pass.

Clough didn't have the best of games and there was one occasion where he just lumped the ball forward without looking and it ended up way past Murphy and into space. I knew then he wasn't on his game.

Osborn isn't a left wing back but he did much better second half. I've been a critic of Traore but he attacked well down the left when he came on and the Dowell goal came about from his good work.

Good to have so many options.
