Rample Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Expected a lot more, didn't come close to justifying his reputation. Maybe if we were doing better, if he had more confidence, if we played in a way that suited him, things would be different, but for the best that it's over. Wigan will be a good place for him, he should get a run there and might become another Nick Powell type moderate success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleEatonRam Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I'm in two minds about this. On the one hand he obviously must have something about him as he was decent at Forest and Sheff Utd. But on the other it was quite clear from an early stage that it wasn't going to work out for him here. So in that regard I'm glad it's over, for both parties.

I will start with Anya - £4.5 million another fortune in 4 years of wages, very little interest in playing football - one goal and hardly any minutes on a football pitch - compared to a young lad who has proved his ability elsewhere but it didn’t work out for him here in 4-5 months on loan - I rest my case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaltRam Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 We've had worse, but what a bloody let down he's been. Cheerio Kieran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He barely played a Sheff Utd mostly on the bench and was “ mehhhh” according to my blades mate! Anyways I’m starting to think we should go easy on Dowell he’s clearly been sent to Wigan as punishment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he just decided to play like he was from the local pub while he was here because he used to play for Forest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Good signing for Norwich. I was a fan of his prior to his loan here and then he did well after he went to Wigan. It just didn't happen for him here, but wouldn't be surprised to see him do well next season. He's shown that he can be a good player at this level and perhaps a settled location will help him progress. All the best to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 If you give him the ball in space, facing goal from 20-30 yards out he'll notch a few goals but that's really all he's got. That doesn't make him a great player, although it seems to convince quite a few otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Good luck to him, he wasn’t much good in a severely poor midfield for us at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Terrible disappointment here. Cocu gave him every chance but he failed to justify his selection and it became increasingly apparent we had better midfield youngsters of our own in the academy. Given Dowell's still rated and has got himself a good move to Norwich, that's just an indication of how promising our own youngsters are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
