Doucoure coming straight out and saying Arsenal, Liverpool, and Tottenham want him. I think he would fit our team well.
Said he preferred Arsenal because of Wenger though.
Will Wenger still be there after this season though?Said he preferred Arsenal because of Wenger though.
Such a paradox
Though the question was 'Arsenal or Tottenham' not which club he'd prefer overall.Said he preferred Arsenal because of Wenger though.

Why do you feel he's overrated? I can't claim to watch Watford consistently but when I have seen them play, and in their highlights, he's stood out in a good way pretty much every time. Good engine, strong on the ball, decent ball skill, good passer of the ball and a pretty good shot.He's overrated anyways imo. Nothing to get worked over.
Sorry overrated isn't the right term. I just don't think he's what at least Arsenal need compared to how he plays.Why do you feel he's overrated?

Liverpool definitely need some top class midfielders to play with Keita. Keita feels a level above everyone else in that engine room. Not sure whibthey could get but I would hope it’s better than Doucoure'
You're right. Liverpool wasn't even mentioned as an interested club.
What don't you like about Doucoure? Based on what I've seen he'd walk into our midfield pretty easily. Not sure we're actually after him though. Milner is getting older, Henderson is unreliable due to injury, Can is leaving and Lallana is also getting older/injury prone. I'm sure that we're going to be in the market for at least one midfielder on top of Keita, if not two (though I'd like to see Ejaria and Woodburn given chances as well).Liverpool definitely need some top class midfielders to play with Keita.

It’s not that I don’t like Doucoure, I don’t think he is an upgrade though. At best, he is the same as they have.What don't you like about Doucoure?

Doucoure was a poor man's Bakayoko.
Good body, decent speed and skills, but IMO nothing great about him.
He plays like a version of Diaby that never gets injured.
