2025/26 Iliman Ndiaye

No one is Leighton Baines. Well except Leighton Baines obviously.

But noticeable, in my opinion, that KDH seems to be drift more to the left side to interact with Grealish, than he does to the right.
KDH being left footed means his natural inclination is to go over there.

He’s played most of his career as the left sided CM in a three so it’s just his game at this point.

I think having Garner doing similar on the right would help Ndiaye but Gana isn’t the type of player to sit in on his own as a 6.

Maybe Rohl can help with this.
 

He’s a forward. Wide or up top. Should never be in a central midfield role, even as the 10. Was a big part of the problem in the first half, though I can’t blame him.

Great cross for the goal.

So many people have said down the years to play the likes of Ndiaye and Mcneil in a number 10 role but it's such a difficult position to play. So easy for the game to just pass you by.

He really struggled with the play going on around him. Better with the game in front of him. Nice to see our winger take a player to the by-line. Was the right decision when we had players in the box. He’s been fairly poor recently, but worth the wait in the second half.
