cambridgeshire canary 6,715 Posted November 28, 2020 May have only seen him for 45 minutes but what a player huh? Strong, quick all over the pitch and not a single one of our players have so far been able to deal with him.. He just storms past them with ease like he's made of pure muscle and lightning. Been a while since I saw a wingback as attack minded as him, not one to critise other teams players and all but think most would agree he's probably Coventrys best player and so far has looked a little too good for them. Given we currently have our main backup rightback being Byram who as much as I do rate it seems is yet another one of our players who tends to end up injured (Not much of a surprise right now sadly) anyone else think Dabo could do well for us? Of course I'm not saying I want Max Aarons to go and god forbid he does but if he does- Could you see us making a cheeky punt? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,161 Posted November 28, 2020 Had my share of disagreements with Midlands on here, but to be fair to him he's been telling us for a long time that Dabo is a good player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Wynless Jones 161 Posted November 28, 2020 Looked ok to me, nothing more. Totally anonymous in the 2nd half before he got taken off. I'd have to see more of him to judge if he'd be good enough for us, especially should we go up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted November 28, 2020 Looked good, but we have Bali Mumba who is a right back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He probably is a good player rather than a player who just had a good half a game, could easily see him getting a decent move one the footballing economy begins to improve.

I don't want to sound like a negative Nancy, but we probably need to be thinking long term about an Aarons replacement for six months time. I guess we need both a Premier League shortlist and a Championship one, and Dabo may be on the latter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said, I don't know enough of him to say either way, but just on today then I'd say no. He seems to be highly rated, so will try and keep a look out. Sadly though apart from our game, I actually don't pay much attention to the other Championship games, seems such a poor standard this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,511 Posted November 28, 2020 I thought Dabo was very decent. Possibly their best player. Fingers crossed that Max starts at Luton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dylanisabaddog 4,914 Posted November 29, 2020 Dabo is too short for a defender in the modern game. We have enough problems in the air as it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big O 225 Posted November 29, 2020 He played well first half but the inexperience of Martin and Sorensen did show. Noticeably Farke put Placheta on that side and he does seem to be very disciplined and hard working defensively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which reminds me about how supposedly the reason Spurs ended up not buying or wanting Max is due to Mourinho complaning that he was too small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was prepared to make an exception for Ashley Cole but Jose likes all his players to be a minimum of 5ft 11. Looking at the Premier League last year it seems he is not alone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
