The boy has the look of being something good but lacks confidence in front of goal , think it will come though I remember Forlan at Man Utd was the same when he arrived but went on to do well let’s stick with it

The pressure of such a big club and expectation maybe. Doidge possibly the same with the big transfer figure that had been banded about, even if it had been inflated by the media.

I'm not usually one to criticise but Doidge cost us the game today. Unbelievable chances but just didn't look like scoring. Really poor performance.
IMO he should have been replaced by Kamberi as soon as Aberdeen went down to 10 men.

Just don't see what anyone has been seeing in him. He's meant to be a striker & misses chances my granny would put away. And
he does it over and over again.
Get him out the first team, get a hypnotist, get a psychologist, try & sort him (ball, net; net, ball), I hope it's possible.
Otherwise, he's going to be another example of a lower English league huddie people keep thinking can cut in the SPFL
when he blatantly cannot.

He’s very consistent.Did the same against St.Mirren.He’s only getting a game because the manager doesn’t want to admit that he’s another disastrous signing.

Feel sorry for the guy. Strikers go through these runs usually just takes one then he'll get a few. Good he is getting into the positions.

I thought he was better all round that Cosgrove today. Cosgrove hardly scored in his first 20 games for Aberdeen if I remember correctly and now can’t stop scoring. Obviously if he continues to miss clear chances it’s a huge issue but he may well be 1 goal away from settling and scoring regularly.

It’s down to confidence, the fact he’s getting the chances is promising.
Missing the pen on his debut just sums him up right now unfortunately.
He really needs to start producing though, fans and the team can only be patient for so long and he has already cost us points with his misses today. He also missed a couple of really good chances against St Mirren.

Felt for him. Can't fault his effort or workrate and he did v well in the air....but ultimately he did not do the main part of his job and it appears he just doesnt have that finishing instinct. That said, Flo made an erse of a good chance too.

Having watched it now Doidge actually had a really good all round game. I like him. He’s strong, quick enough and good in the air. He gets in good positions and makes good runs.
Of the four chances the first two weren’t too bad. Think he did what he could with them, but he will want to do better with the likes of the last two.
He’s shown before he can finish and I think it will come.
Kamberi had a poor miss too.

He did have a good all round game and he was missed when he went off.
I don’t think pointing out Kamberi had a poor miss as well in his time on the park is really ripping him.Last edited by Andy74; 06-10-2019 at 10:25 AM.

If doidge managed to put away the chances he's had,he would be on a decent tally.
Hopefully the big man starts tucking them away 👍

I used to spend way too much time (and, unfortunately money) at roulette tables thinking the ball just needs to slot in once and it’ll suddenly all start to work out.
He’s not scoring because even though he used to knock them in for Forest Green or Dagenham, he’s not playing against the kind of teams Forest Green or Dagenham play.
Overall, we’ve a mediocre team with a mediocre manager playing mediocre football. “Luck” isn’t going to change any of that.Last edited by steakbake; 06-10-2019 at 05:41 AM.

He's 27 as well so it's not even as if he's a promising youngster with time on his side to develop.
As I've said on previous threads, he seems like a decent team player but strikers are judged on goals and when we're spending a sizeable chunk of our budget on someone, I'm expecting them to be competent at doing their primary role in the team.
What Doidge did yesterday was a striker's equivalent of a goalkeeper letting in four howlers. If Maxwell had done that then people would be wanting him dropped for weeks.

The one thing I would say though is that I'd like to see him and Kamberi have a proper chance up top together. The managers downfall is going to be his rigidity and inability to see his formation isn't working. With 2 up top and Allan supporting in midfield we'd at least see some goals imo.
