Cody Gakpo Player Thread (F)

Yep

never a midfielder, should have been him instead of Jota up top as he offers a lot going forward.

Please let's never play him as a CM again.

Totally agree since he offered nothing in CM however ironically I would use him there next Saturday for the last time and put Nunez upfront.

We should have enough against them to beat them even with Gakpo's experiment.

We're wasting the chance of playing two players to their full potential because of not having a true no.6: Mac Allister who is moved from LCM to DM and Gakpo who is brought back to play CM instead of CF.

This is another reason I'd love us to quickly get the No.6 position fixed.

Would be pretty disappointing if that is it for that window.

Saw some people call his display a disappearing act...but to be a disappearing act you actually have to be present in the first stages of it. He wasn't.

By the standards we've set as an attacking force in recent year, I thought he looked miserably out of his depth. Causing some concern and worry that he is a few levels from what we expect. Not good enough.

Gakpo has scored for Holland playing LWF.

It will give him confidence in front of goal after being played out of position.

Lad's in a knee brace and the boss apparently thinks it could be a bad one. All of that to get robbed at the end. F**k you PGMOL, F**k you Premier League and F**k every last one of the referees involved in yesterday's game.

We get 6 Yellows 2 reds and we have a serious injury!   Like you say word for word!

Looks like just out for a couple weeks

Hearing 4 -5 so wouldn't take anything as legit just yet

Another international break coming up

think Gakpo is a very understated performer he doesnt get noticed much again a bit like Ray Kennedy he glides over the pitch almost effortlessly . Hope he is ok soon he is a major asset for us.

Yeh sounds more like 3 weeks and hopefully back for Derby

Any idea if he's back for either Toulouse or Forest?

He is back training so will prob play against Toulouse

Id say bench at best thursday.

Starts against Fulham hopefully. Quality player and game intelligence is clear. Such a clever player too. He's not Bobby but it feels like he's growing into that Bobby role and it makes us dangerous.

Needs to stay closer to in and around the box for me, not as effective when he drops deep.

Wanna see even more goals from the Lad.

What is this fella actually good at??

What is this fella actually good at??

to be honest he should start ahead of Nunez

He’s a decent player, this is my issue with people saying sell
Salah and reinvest

We spent 120m on gapko and Nunez. We have dropped levels and have a major problem. We will really lack that quality when Salah goes up top as nobody else can even lace his boots imo

But still I rather him than Nunez right now in the team

Don’t get him in midfield at all. He was of one mind yesterday and that was to shoot. Might as well have started him at CF.

I think he may start up front v west ham. Keep nunez for last 30 or so.
