2024/25 Iliman Ndiaye

[18efc78]

Love the way he turn on a sixpence then scampers off with his head bobbing

 

[N0L1M1TK]

Really good again. He's actually enjoyable to watch, which is a big compliment as many of the others are not.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Absolutely love the way he runs with the ball

Ball sticks to him like he's a little video game guy.

 

[pfim]

Stayed out there more than 90 minutes without turning into a winter squash.

Between he and Mangala, we finally have two guys who aren’t afraid to accept the ball under pressure. Can be transformative for a squad.

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

Something that we haven’t said about too many Everton players: he’s FUN

 

[Goat]

He plays the footballs.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

He plays the footballs.

Gorgeous to watch.

 

[Kenyon]

It seems we aren't getting him the ball enough. Going to have to learn to spell his name

 

[Street end man]

Hames? Who's she?

 

[bluestevon]

It seemed like Mcneil was on the ball more than him in the first half

Yup but he was recieving it with back to goal and it ended up invariably going backwards, Ndiaye was our only player progressing it first half

 

[DualityNSNO]

An actual footballer. Hope Dyche doesn't Dyche him up.

 

[knowing your history]

Best signing the club have made since Tarkowski.

Simply has that touch of class on the ball.

 

[Ivo]

Absolutely love this guy, hope he keeps playing well and we keep hold of him. Be good if, after what seemed like a difficult time in France, he sees us as his 'home' now.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

I thought he was great again today, He tired a bit 2nd half but a constant threat especially when we were looking to break.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

The sort of player that no-one moans when he gives it away, because it’s not too often, and usually when he’s trying to beat a man and set up a break/chance, or trying a high risk/high reward pass. Totally fine with losing possession by trying to move forward, excite and create chances. Far better than losing possession by getting trapped with no options, or just hoofing it. And when he does lose it, he doesn’t look to the heavens, he kicks and scraps to try and win in back or at least slow the opponent. Can’t coach that.

Nice to have a player that the opposition might have at least mentioned in their preparations as a threat. Makes life so much easier for the others.
