R.Bear Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Has flaws and I don't think he will ever be a prolific goalscorer but he definitely has strengths and is useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) I think he’s a much better option than people realise. Yes, very raw, a bit more maverick than Emery probably likes, but what he has is terrifying pace and physicality, mad shot power, and a proper aerial presence. If Watkins is out for a few games then I hope we just let Duran enjoy the limelight, don’t get on his back too much when things don’t come off. Seems like a proper confidence player to me who needs to feel loved. Edited March 14 by KentVillan 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Been injured for months looked good. Let’s use some logic when judging his performance young player learning his trade shaking off the rust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Showed what he's capable of tonight and if I had to choose between him and Rogers to be on the team next season it would be Durán. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Jhon Durán is very quick with the ball at his feet and caused them constant problems... If Watkins is out Durán will be a handful for any team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reivax_Villa Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 He needed this goal and so did we.. We will get more impact from him now in the coming weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post M_Afro Posted March 14 Popular Post Share Posted March 14 We have never had another 20 year old striker as exciting as him in all my years as a fan. We really should be excited by his potential. He’s got the lot and if he somehow manages to piece it all together then the potential is massive. He could be a £100m footballer one day. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WooJung Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Goal Is going to do him good. Yes, he'll try to shoot from improbable angles, but he does that anyway, so I'd rather he did it full of confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul514 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I thought he did well. We should give him more minutes when we can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 He has something. It’s one big raw ball of energy at the moment but boy he has something. Wouldn’t be selling unless we really had to. If all goes well and he avoids injury, he *could* become devestating. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie has him just beaten. Regardless, that just proves that stats mean nothing compared to the eye test. That Vellios for Everton had a similar great goals to minutes ratio for Everton a few years back when he was coming on for cameos at the end of games. It's deceptive when you're not playing 90 minutes each week. He can score great goals but his finishing is very poor. This isnt based just on tonight of course. Poor finishers arent prolific. He can improve of course but generally, you either have it or you dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
