2024/25 Iliman Ndiaye

[Vaughan]

I think the exact opposite

O'Brien did a pretty good job as a hybrid right back and, if Branthwaite stays, you'd assume him and Tarkowski will be the first choice CB pairing so most of O'Brien's playing time will still come as a right back. Don't get me wrong, I want to sign a new right back as well, but Mykolenko's lack of ability with the ball is one of the major flaws in our approach play - a new starting left back is, to me, a bigger priority than a starting right back (though both should 100% be on the priority list this summer).

i agree, however, i think there’s a good few right backs available on a free we should be looking at

if jake gets injured we need better than patterson or coleman

coleman in all honesty shouldnt get a minute next year apart from a 10 min run out at bramley moore

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Had a great game today - almost unplayable. Everything good came from him and Alcaraz. Looking forward to those two coupled with a fast winger next year.

PAGE 3 !!!! Not on my watch.

My favourite player. Loved seeing him and Charly today. Let’s hope today was a preview of next season.

 

[jonnyg]

Glides past opponents without needing much pace. Feel like he could do this into his 30s

 

[maccavennie]

Started off sloppy but bloody hell did he put a shift in from 10 minutes onwards. Travelling with the ball, taking 2-3 players out of the game

 

[EGWToffee]

Thought he was superb today. I gave him MOTM

 

[dannyboy]

Great at times today. Need these performances for the full 90 minutes. Possible that'll only come when our centre mids are good enough to control the game though.

 

[Bluelenny1984]

Love this guy!

When he’s triple-covered he needs to think pass a little more. And when he’s isolated he needs to think shoot a little more. Just a few tweaks only. He’s great.

He's ganged up on a lot because there's little threat coming from elsewhere on the pitch. Hopefully that changes soon.

 

[Daytripper]

The way he held the ball and turned in the build up to the penalty shout was superb, he’s pretty strong for a slender lad.

 

[BenToffee79]

Ndiaye a joy to watch, a true gem of a footballer and someone you build around thought him and Alcaraz were fantastic today, a wonderful footballer ,first touch and turn very Arteta/ Pienaar like

 

[Vaughan]

his knee was fine right? got worried there

 

[Bedfordblue]

That’s good if we have an Alcaraz or McNeil (or better) along side him, give them more space.

It was great to see him wriggle away from 3 of their players just before he went off - he was injured then too!
