I mean I could see it but it would take a lot for that to happen but then again it is just hard when we go up against such a superior team like France. #2 in the world for a reason.

masster Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 The Italian press is continuing to report that David is a firm target for Roma this transfer window. While I posted previously that I thought he could form a nice partnership with Tammy Abraham but the finances of the deal would be difficult...it sounds as though Roma is very open to selling Abraham back to the Premier League so they would have the money to afford David.

If they do that then David playing at Roma would be pretty good. Roma are not only contenders in Serie A season after season but they regularly make Champions League from Serie A.

Unnamed Trialist Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Have to say two of our potentially best chances vs France failed to come off his feet. The first was the clear break where he needed to find Osorio earlier, a tad. Then his shot top of the box, where again he could have shuffled it over to Oso who would have been clear. Based on the reaction Osorio saw both plays clearly. David always has the ball inside his body but some shots, to get past a defender, have to be pushed wide of the body. He doesn't do that. Btw both the plays show Osorio exactly where he was supposed to be. If he were lacking pace and speed I don't think that'd be the case.

First one looked offside to me when I watched it live but maybe not. And yeah second one was Eustaquio that he definitely should have slid in.

In any case there was a reaction to not getting the pass from David and both were amazing chances, and late enough to have been candidates for game winners.

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Seeing David in game from outside eyes (mostly English as a transfer target, to be clear) you maybe see why some people struggle to embrace him. His normally calm ability with a final ball does seem to desert him in a some big game situations. (Say Aston Villa, last World Cup or bit in these two friendlies) Now that unfairly ignores his press, his willingness to track back and his ability to be in excellent spaces a lot of the time. That said, at the end of the day, if you are looking at a striker who mostly offers goals, based on his stats, and he is not scoring against big oponents, you worry. His Canadian goal record for instance is somewhat that of a flat track bully. I think the more he experiences good opponents and good defenders, the more his good work will become more natural and we will see goals. It is why a good situational transfer is so critical right now. jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an excuse, but I'd like to see how many km David ran vs France. I can't imagine he had much left in the tank at 85'. jhoops__ and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
