Matt Doherty

[Totti]

Meh.

Expecting better. He's playing like a right sided Davies right now. Doesn't really offer anything going forward. His final ball is literally no improvement on Aurier from the showings so far and he was done THREE times defensively today.

But, a cleansheet to his name. So fair play.

I'm sure he'll improve as the season goes on.

Doherty will offer us plenty this season, new team and not used to playing RB in a back four. Needs to clean up that 1v1 defending though.

Can’t remember when it was but in the 1st half he made a real half hearted tackle and lost the ball, he’s got to put more effort in when defending.

Did people not learn from Hojbjerg.

Give him a chance.

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

He gave the ball away directly three times. He is weaker than I expected. I hope he has more than I've seen so far.

 

[TonySoprano]

Hasn't impressed me going forward that much which is what i thought we signed him for.

Defensively him and Serge aren't that much different. Neither is good enough but we'll have to make do with using one or the other until we can sign a top class right-back.

Backing him.... He'll get there.

.....Not like he hasn't previously proved himself effective in the EPL.

Looks very average atm.

 

[Cravenspurs]

Not surprised by the struggles. He was up there with CFs in terms of runs in the box last year as a RWB. Wolves play with the most inverted FBs in the league I have to believe and we have him in a flat back 4. Baffled me when we made the signing, but I did think we would see more 3 at the back this year, which we haven't. KWP is a much better RB whereas Matt is a much better RWB.

I think I prefer Aurier and thats saying something.
