2017/18 Oumar Niasse

[orly]

If our former manager had got his way, we'd have properly replaced Lukaku, and signed a left sided centre back too....

Exactly.

Our previous managed had clearly and repeatedly said to the Board that he needed a target man striker to bring the rest of his side into the game - and was led down a make-believe Steve Walsh road that we had a chance at players like Diego Costa. He was instead asked to go into a Premier League campaign with Niasse (willing, but can't hold the ball up to save his life) and Calvert-Lewin (utterly horrible footballer) and we were goosed. He didn't even bring in Martina to play left back because, er, he'd also said that position needed solving, too.

We'd still have spent £68m on Klaassen and Sigurdsson and would still have been the slowest team on planet earth though.

Oumar confirmed as STAYING.

Oumar confirmed as STAYING.

Finally some good news

Lets not rewrite history, everyone did.

Not everybody, just all the usual "experts".

When will managers learn, you can't get rid of oumar, oumar gets rid of you. Fat mans time is coming

Not everyone....

I would rather him stay than DCL, atleast Niasse is a useful super sub.

 

[Death]

Highlight of the season.

 

[EFCPaul]

Without his goals this season we'd be 19th, that's a statistical fact.

Not the greatest player to play up top for us, far from it, but definitely got one of the biggest hearts. Very good chance we'd still be in the Europa League if Koeman had shown him a basic level of respect.

Oumar should be given 90% of the first teams wages, a statue in the centre of Liverpool and have the new stadium named in his honour.

The king stay the king.

 

[Fletch]

He should have his pick of lockers from underperforming players, like this week he should have Schniederlins locker etc etc

 

[wiggie]

I would like to see him and senk up front

 

[Ricochet]

Can we stop calling him a [Poor language removed] footballer yet? What else does the lad need to do?

Agreed, so sick of the Oumar naysayers! He can score (finish) unlike everybody but Rooney.

And that ladies and gentlemen is why he shouldn't be sold!

Exactly, we would be dumb to sale him right now...Cenk has proven he can score in the EPL yet and DCL isn't much of a scoring threat. We need Oumar and I would be devastated to lose my favorite player.

That would be interesting but I doubt it will happen. Big Sam only played DCL and Oumar up front a couple of times, which I thought would work if given a proper chance.
