He gets a lot of hate from our fans - some justified, some not.
But fair play, he put in a shift today when he came on. Arguably one of his better performances for us.
Great header for the winner and put himself about.
He's definitely better as a striker instead of on the wing. He's obviously not going to start ahead of Salech or Robinson but if he can perform like that from the bench, he has a part to play in this relegation battle.
Think he deserves credit where it's due today.

He gets criticism not hate i don't think there is one of us that hates him and your right he does deserve the credit for today's performance let's hope he kicks on from this

Credit where’s its due as scored a vital goal today.
Has become a whipping boy at times and deserved it on occasions.
Hopefully the goal will give him confidence
Sat Mar 15, 2025 8:40 pm
Totally agree. When the chips are down you need people to step up and he certainly did that today.
This run in will sort out the men from the boys and players who actually care and for all the stick he's taken he could've quite easily downed tools.
He showed great character today more than some of the favourites who are from immune from criticism.

He deserved the criticism because he’s been garbage for 2 years and his antics left a lot to be desired at times
However, he didn’t deserve the personal abuse he received that was out of order
The least he can do is put in a shift every time he pulls on the shirt and best for all concerned if he moves on in the summer

Doesn't help that he usually comes on too late to have any effect on the game & then he's played on the wing for some obscure reason.

About time he did something.

Ok got the winner but I still don't think he gives 100 per cent every minute he is on the pitch.

Always causes problems with his physical approach. Hasn't had a good scoring record here .he's not a winger and not an out and out striker so that kind of sums him up .I do feel he gives a lot of effort and I'm delighted for him and us today hope he gets more for us

No player wearing our colours should recive hate.
Pathetic

Personal criticism stepped over the line towards hate.

Strong and physical, always gives 100% when playing, hardly ever pulls out of a tackle, cant ask for more, well done Yakou.

Agree got to give praise when due if willing to give stick when due

Agreed - nothing to do with love or hate!! Well done Yakou - great performance by one of OUR players and he scored one of the most important goals we have scored all season!!

Considering the donkeys we have signed over the last few years I am baffled why he gets so much stick. Always seems to give his all in my opinion and though he hasn't scored many he is always a physical presence.
Sun Mar 16, 2025 5:27 pm
Not sure its hate but let's be honest he's had a terrible season 2 goals scored .

spot on! absolute garbage, scores one f**king goal and puts his finger to his mouth ??!! what?? that done it with most city fans
Sun Mar 16, 2025 7:16 pm
A few replies to this sort of prove my point.
People are happy to criticise him but refuse to give him credit when he deserves it.
And yes, I stand by saying it's hate that people put towards him.
That includes racist abuse, totally unnecessary.
Yet other players but in consistent poor performances but get an easy ride.

But harsh to be fair.

He's got 4 goals and 1 assist in 66 appearances. Alot of starts and as striker in this 2 year spell.
As an attacker, he's been beaten by Ashford in the same duration but less than 50% of the games, beaten by Salech in just shy of 2 months.12 other players have more goals and assists this season. 2 others are shared, one of those is Alves; again here a strawberry season.
Hs's likely on a good wage, and has been given plenty of opportunity. He's earned criticism. Not abuse, criticism.

Other than your last paragraph, I can't argue with the points made there. But he has received abuse, a lot of it racist - I've heard it myself at games and I won't be the only one.

Yeah, that's not acceptable to anyone, never mind someone in our shirt! Sickening.

What about Meite AND Salech, anyone?
Play to strengths and just hammer the box with balls, as opppsed to wing to wing tappy football that likely ends up at our back 4?
