2025/26 Iliman Ndiaye

[Victus]

 

[Bedfordblue]

Street footballer. Looked like he had a knock in 2nd half

He got clattered but got back up and seemed to have run it off so I was a bit annoyed when he was subbed, but watching MoTD this morning he was gesturing something to the bench when he got up.
Hopefully nothing too serious.

I thought he went off because he looked knackered and why wouldn’t he, he ran all over the place for sixty minutes up and down that line, he was my MOTM before he went off and not just for anticipating where Grealish was going to put that centre. I hope he went off because of that tiredness and not through an injury— he is invaluable to Everton with the amount of work he does and getting you off your seat with plenty of it.

There's a Brighton chance on the highlights where he's stood at the edge of the box once it goes wide and is definitely nursing his leg, looks over and shouts to the bench. But hopefully just being cautious

Love this lad.

Fair enough I hope you are right.

I would put him behind the striker and let him score goals and work on his playmaking game. He already scores goals. For him to reach the next level he has to be able to feed other players. I think he can do it. Let Grealy and Dibnasty handle the wings.

I would be very happy if Grealish and Dibbling do as well as Dniaye did last season in his first season here, I think if the three of them play together they should be clever enough to swap positions during the game to keep the opposition guessing and fully occupied.

I wonder if he could play as the striker with Grealish & Dibling on the wings, and neither full backs overly attacking I don’t feel like crosses from open play are our go.

Would love to see a front line of those 3 with Gana, KDH + 1 other in a midfield 3.

He could but he shouldn't...he is no striker but can cover there in case of emergencies, I guess similar to gordon for Newcastle. He needs to be involved in midfield where we need his creativity

It depends if our play goes through Grealish and Dibbling with KDH or Alcarez we may want a centre forward like N Diaye. If we play hoofball again it is no point playing him as a nr 9

It might be why, Chermitti is being allowed to leave? I have just said in the transfer bit. We aren't going to get a becent striker, on loan or cheap this late in the window.

Kinda my line of thinking, we attack mainly through Grealish’s side similar to how we attacked down Ndiaye’s left wing last year.

If we look to create more opportunities to slide the striker through on goal, maybe Ndiaye isn’t a bad option

Footwork exhibition going on from Ily here. Doesn't want to be outshone by grealish clearly
