Dolman_Stand Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 If I had to pick one it would be Joe Bryan who is comfortably the best player we have ever produced but him and Jay are at different stages of their careers and JD is still a class act at Championship level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midred Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 He was wonderful up to Christmas 2017 then he was waiting for offers and lost interest for the rest of the season. Now he's settled and playing well again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey 6 Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 It’s tough because whilst I don’t think Dasilva is the best at defending, Bryan isn’t great either. Fulham fans really didn’t rate him much this season as a left back. Most weeks you’d see them moaning about him! When he gets forward though he’s a better player than Jay. Finish with both feet and is usually good for 5-10 assists per season. Probably say JB edges it at the moment, but I have no doubt JD Will go onto play Premier League football as well.

Dr Balls Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Always really liked Joe. Great attitude, plus clearly intelligent, and as we know loved the club (Loftus Road 2018). Not really a left back, but as a left wing back in the right system or a left midfielder he can be fantastic, especially going forward, with a shot as good as any striker. Tonight bears that out.

Superjack Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 I know that it is only two pages, but it's late, and I can't be bothered to read anything but the OP. Is this really a discussion?

Fuber Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 On Balance, Bryan - harder in a tackle, and very strong for his height, so is JD, but his height makes him more of a target. Equallym DaSilva is 5 years younger; so has the potential to be better, Imo. Now - Bryan - In the Future? - Debatable, wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While both vulnerable to balls played behind them in defence, Jay maybe just shades it as a defender. Joe though is country miles ahead as an attacking wing -back. Shot, cross, pass, heading all far superior. Joe all day long for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 The only aspect of the fame Dasilva is better at is ability on the ball. Everything else Bryan is better.

Leveller Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Neither is a great defender, but JB is bigger and stronger and a better tackler. JD is good on the ball, but not as good going forward as JB. JB considerably better overall at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However he always was a bit defensively weak. Ill go for JD but always love Joe. Top bloke too (met him on a dog walk) A bit like Flint as he was a fans favorite he was excused for the mistakes he made in games Too often he'd be caught out of position and ball watching.

Mr Popodopolous Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 As a defender, I've never been fully sold on Bryan. However he is and can be a great outlet- still with room to grow as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mihai Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Dasilva is much more technical than Bryan. I see Bryan more like a LM or RW. Dasilva looks more dangerous when attacking and passing, and dribbling also. When we talk about goals and shoots, Dasilva is something like let's say a Jordi Alba, offering big support wide, going narrow sometimes to disrupt their shape. Dasilva doesn't have to score, or shoot too much. He got the ability to get much better than Joe is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about that, not to say it's not true. What I do know is that he certainly stopped playing the great football he played up until the cup games at the end of the year. He seemed uninterested hence the view thay he downed tools. That's one of my last memories of his time here unfortunately. Great player though and wish him all the best.

The Gambler Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 i think Bryan has an outside chance of being in the Euro squad next year. That game has just raised his profile immeasurably - if he starts next season well he has a shot at an England Squad. who is ahead of him?
