Bubbles Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 No matter what, if Kieran Dowell bangs one in against former club F*rest and celebrates infront of the trent end then he will be our best loanee of all time.. Mason Mount who? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TibshelfRam Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Apologies if this has already been said throughout the existing pages of the thread but: I never saw Dowell as a direct replacement for Mount and it is probably an unfair comparison. In actuality, I always thought that Harry Wilson looked at his best (and we did as a team) when he played in the middle alongside Mount in October/November time. And to me, Dowell is probably slightly more similar to Wilson in that role. I recall posts - and my own thoughts - around this time last season struggling to see where Wilson fitted in and what he added to the team. I can't say that I think that now. Dowell will come good, I've no doubt about that. What I'd say is that, going forward, we are clearly still a work in progress - we haven't 'clicked' yet. But I think that we will. We haven't quite got the balance right. I'm hoping that with Bielik coming in, we will play a slightly more offensive player alongside Dowell in midfield and I think that with Bielik behind, and then a box to box player (a la Holmes) Dowell will be given more licence to roam and create. I genuinely think that he will click once we get the balance, system and personnel right. I do think that Bielik, Holmes and Dowell supplying Jozefzoon/Paterson, Lawrence, Waghorn and Bogle and Malone in support will look creative and fluid moving forward.

Instead of giving it 15 games before we make up our minds on him let's give Knight 15 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
