Lewis Dobbin

This lad will rip up the league. No doubt about it, could easily be doing a job in Champ. Cheers Frankie

Most of his highlights reel he is on the right

He’s played 23 games on the left and only 6 on the right. Not watched the highlights reel, as I feel they’re not usually entirely reflective of a player.

Interview he says he doesn’t have a position and can play anywhere across the front. 

He’s played on the left the most though, and that’s where we’re lacking the most, so I strongly suspect he’ll feature there predominantly. Most wingers can play either side though of course, albeit with different styles (cutting inside / getting to the by-line). Seems he’s played up front a bit as well, so might be an option to move there if we go two up top, most likely within a game.

He’s all right foot in his highlight video from the first page. If he plays out left he will be cutting inside the whole time.

That’s exactly what I mean. The modern way to play wingers is to invert them, so they provide a greater goal threat to support the lone striker. Dobbin seems well suited to LW in a 4-3-3.

I think you are going to be a great actuary.

I can see him being a bench/injury cover player. Certainly initially. 

Handy to have pace to bring off the bench. 

[Magicman]

He will come on for either NML or Barkhuzien plus extra striker sub. Just need a new CF and RB then ready to fly . 

[sage]

This may be a short loan. 

Calvert-Lewin just picked up a knee injury in training. 

 

[Sparkle]

Any videos of him being kicked six feet up in the air by a league one defender and how he reacted ? - I suppose we will be watching in real time.

In the 3 minute highlight reel I watched, it took him a minute and a half before he passed it to one of his own players or had a shot on target. I'm hoping my Youtube judgement of him isn't representative.

Worst case bench warmer..

Best case, tears L1 a new ? hole and we canter to the title..

Low risk signing 

[EnigmaRam]

He will play most games. The forward positions are the ones that get subbed the most. I would imagine starts in the cups and on the bench for league games but he will play a lot.

I agree, run the opposition defence ragged, swap things around and run them ragged some more.

[BramcoteRam84]

He’ll start off on the bench and will probably get his chance in the Pizza cup, if he’s as good as Everton fans seem to think and will rip it up then expect he’ll be starting relatively soon. We’re light in wide areas so signing him, if we get Oko-Flex, Robertson and then another RB and GK then I think this squad is in a very good place and certainly one that should be challenging top 6 and promotion.

If he signs will his team mates call him Dobby?

 

Doubt it. I will be something quirky and original like Dozza ?

[Curtains]

I’m thinking great signing

Hang on a minute my actuarial friend. You said he was a naturally left side attacker. The stats you offered don't confirm that. They actually suggest he has played 55% of his games in a position other than left wing. Based on his YouTube montage I reckon if you took away his right foot there is some risk that he would fall over. 

[RadioactiveWaste]

Know nothing about him, so I'll confidantly state he's the best thing since sliced bread / an utter waste of time and effort will never make it, after all he didn't make it at Everton and they lent us that Dowell fellah.
