He's come close but the constant tunnel vision towards the net is hurting his team He plays like that all the time. Its not so much hero ball as a lack of vision. David was in great position to receive passes that never came. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcrash Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 46 minutes ago, Obinna said: I noticed that David tends to go down and appeal to the ref quite often. He doesn't exactly dive and attempt to embellish, but he uses his body very well to get between the defender and ball. When there is contact and no call, he is always quick to throw his hands up at the ref and ask why. David's not a diver and a lot of those are legit fouls which aren't called because he doesn't embellish them like, say, Neymar.

Gian-Luca Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Scoring against a team like Roma (first Canadian to do so, I'm assuming as I'm not sure who else would have had the opportunity - except maybe Cristante before he started playing for Roma and obviously he's not Canadian eligible anymore) certainly won't have sent those scouts away with a negative report johnyb and Cblake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams who'll be making a bid for David will be studying hundreds of hours of video on David and they'll be comfortable that his game will transition well in a higher league given his play against quality teams in Europa League like St. Etienne and Wolfsburg, in addition to Roma. dyslexic nam, johnyb, Cblake and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryker911 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I wonder if there will be any scouts at the Canada game? Could be a good opportunity for someone else to step up and get noticed.

Hard to say since many of our younger guys will be with the Olympic team. Maybe someone like Kaye or Layrea that.got into MLS late and have never played overseas.Always good to get our guys more exposure that they would not otherwise receive.

StretchArmstrong Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Just reading ESPN Soccernet's "Transfer Talk" page, which is usually a bunch of bollocks, but it's just great to read the following: - The Sunday Express claim that Gent striker Jonathan David has made his way onto Chelsea's transfer wish list this summer. That said, Frank Lampard will have his work cut out to lure a player valued at £20m from Belgium to Stamford Bridge, with Liverpool, Manchester United and Spurs also interested in snapping him up. johnyb and Cblake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Should we be worried about David? Every picture I see of Mbokani (the guy he has passed for the Golden Bull currently) he looks like he is going to murder someone or has this massive smile (and looks like he going to murder someone). dyslexic nam, JuicyHam, johnyb and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be an awesome move. Talks of PSV and Ajax were nice at the beginning of the year but those options should not even be seriously considered anymore. If they are, he should fire his agent right away. He has shown he can play against much better opposition in the Europa league and he needs to make a higher jump.

Since Canada doesn't have the population and money of the US, Canadian players are more likely to be signed in Europe for talent than marketability, right? I mean Pulisic is still a very good player IMO. I just want David to be better Cblake and JuicyHam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
