Popular Post Yorkie Bear 633 Posted November 30 Popular Post Share Posted November 30 He’s our top scorer this season but most would be happy for him to leave. He misses many chances but scores some good goals. He keeps going but occasionally shows his frustration. Whatever you think of Dessers, I don’t hold with the derision that is meted out to him. This happens with other players too but Dessers is the main recipient. I find this derision, particularly by supporters at the match, somewhat unbecoming. It is said in some quarters that his confidence is low and this adds to his poor decision making in front of goal. If this is true then when he misses an easy chance, after our initial cry of anquish it does not help to constantly barrack him. When someone is low and out of sorts they need supported, not hounded. I’m sure the management and his team mates are doing their bit to support him. I just wish our supporters had a tad more understanding. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,149 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Dessers scores good goals right enough. I just wish he could score a few of the rubbish ones too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,806 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 I don't hold with booing or harassing players. My issue with him is his skillset doesn't suit what we need. He can't hold the ball up, he can't link play, can't create space for himself or others and he misses so many chances. He has 5 goals (League and Europe) from an xG of 9.4. That's a huge underperformance. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,398 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 (edited) Suppose someone had to fill the space left by Lammers so Dessers gets it but Propper not far behind. Edited November 30 by MacK1950 spelling 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CammyF 8,369 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 He isn't the player we need going forward, but he isn't as bad as some make him out to be (his goalscoring record for us is decent). He should score more goals but is currently carrying the goalscoring burden on his own, as he did last season when Sima got injured. The scramble to have Igamane (or Danilo) to replace him is premature, both of them have a lot to prove, even after Igamanes performance on Thursday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo 7,184 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 He’s been our main striker just look at the goal difference between us and them across the city it’s 28 looks like our striker is on strike he’s a dud the type of dud that gets a manager sacked . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
