Scoring a routine goal and celebrating like he’d just won the World Cup final, only to get himself booked and add extra time. And what happens? Man U equalise. It’s embarrassing. When you over-celebrate like that, you're asking for it to come back and bite you on the ass. Celebrate when the final whistle blows, not before you’ve actually finished the job.
Have you ever scored in your life?!
 
At this point I dont think narrative about his great character is valid.

To me he is just a big child. Drama queen like someone mentioned above. Keyboard warrior. It can work in favour if you deliver on the pitch. But only short term. But when you play like a donkey... Lets say this kind of character won't help you go though bad moments.

He is a big fish small pond kind of player IMO, if you build the team round him, manager has his arm around constantly and you coddle him he will bag you a good amount of goals and be a nuisance up front. Issue is he's nowhere near good enough for a team of our stature to stoop to that. His move has proven beyond doubt that Everton/Watford was his level and this step up was too big, he lacks so many of the basic talents that are an absolute necessity for a PL 9 in the modern day.

He doesn't deliver on the pitch often enough to be worth it. And the falling over at the slightest touch is getting really frustrating and embarrassing.
 
Fucking crap player, grifter and drama queen - get rid asap.
Could not believe we signed him from day one and done zero in three years to change my mind.

I don't understand why players take off their shirts when they score - they know they're going to get booked. If I was the manager, I'd fine them as well, that'll soon put a stop to it.
 
Absolute cringe having a living team mate tattooed on your back - what a moron.
Honestly cannot stand the bloke.
I’m the same. It’s his sulky face and depressing body language that kills me as much as his complete inability to be half decent at football.

Imagine being his teammate on the pitch and that’s what you have in front of you as a striker. No wonder we don’t go forward enough or quickly.
 
Went through the first few pages. Yeah I know, comedy gold.

But not really. Even though this place is guilty of indiscriminate and forced optimism whenever a new player is signed, people for the most part still found it difficult to say nice things about him other than him;

being a shithouse- worked out fine
being able to cover multiple positions- euphemism for a utility player, someone who gets this label because he is hardly exceptional at any particular position he covers
knowing the league- another euphemism for being mediocre

We got what we paid for essentially, except him turning into a part time footballer in addition to all these.

There was a point in the second half before we scored - 1-0 down and chasing a game at home, he gets a ball lumped up to him and instead of trying to trap the thing and get the team up the pitch he went down as if shot holding his back in apparent pain while De Ligt laughed at him - we lost the ball and play moved on.
Its this kind of shit which he does constantly that really gets my goat.
Bullshit artist who isn't good at any specific thing and very ordinary or utter wank in every way.
