BriHughesywhere would he fit in? instead of Bielik and Sunjic as the defensive midfielder then? we need to keep JJ and need to do the big changes in the summer
Either as depth or as a replacement for one of those two as we can’t play the TM way with those two starting.
Signed him on football manager a couple years ago as he was a tidy mobile midfielder with an eye for a pass.
That is truly the extent of my knowledge. I trust our recruitment, and it seems like a smart move to loan and then potentially get on a free in the summer.
To be fair he was very highly rated on Football manager for a few years. As others have said I don't think he really fullfilled his potential for various reasons. This is also the extent of my knowledge.
BriHughesyBehaveDanBriHughesyunsure. is he any better than Bacuna? no. we've sent Khela out on loan. Patterson and Kamara have been playing well in the 21's. I hope we don't start signing for the sake of it. we've had some really bad loans like Richards and the Albion lad. i hope Dozzell isn't in that ball park
He's better than Gary Gardner who is regularly in the squad.
disagree. Gardner is an experienced player who can come and do a job if needed. hes what we need at this time. Dozzell is flaky and can't get in at QPR
Never thought I'd read the words "Gardner is what we need at this time" on SHA in the Lord's year of 2024
Is he like Adam Clayton? Or maybe Mikel San José?
Waste of time looking at him when we still have a relatively young Craig Gardner sat in the office.
Oh and he’s “lightweight” (do I get bonus points for using a sha buzzword?)
Le ModSurprised no one has mentioned the first away game of the season 2017 or 2018. We lost 1-0 at Ipswich, we had some chances tbf but Dozzell went off late in the first half with what turned out to be a long lay off I think. But in that half he was the best player on the pitch.TBF he was only 18 there, he's 24 now so might have a filled out a bit.
Can see he has good technique and balance, obviously left footed, lets see what he can do

Me too, 😂. Paid 1.5m for him. Got promoted and played him a few times in the prem before replacing him with someone better. Sold him for 5m I think
Exactly this. We need players asap IN THE FIRST ELEVEN to get to the dizzy heights of 18th
Our current crop worry me. Imagine if Stansfield got injured or left 🤦🏼♂️
One QPR fan has called him, alongside Laird, Sanderson and Roberts “The Poundland Spice Boys”. Quite funny I thought. They are unanimously delighted to be moving him on which is a worry.
I would rather be aiming for players who at least a moderate amount of the selling clubs fan base rate.

If Mowbray thinks he can improve us having seen him play then I’m all for it.
A central midfielder who can pass to another team mate on a regular basis would be a thing of beauty.
LOOK AFTER THE BALL.
We've very few players who can do this and those who can are rarely on the pitch at the same time.
Don't know much about him, but assume that's the logic and he falls into 'good footballers' requirement TM talked about.
Plus losing half that squad in the summer, good age, if available pick them up etc etc.
Might be wrong but I think this is from this season
According to Sofascore, Dozzell has an 83% passing success rate, wins 42% of all ground duals and has outperformed his XG, scoring twice from an XG of just 0.68.
Dunno if that's good or bad.
Dozzell has a 82 percent pass completion this season.
