What more do you want? He was one of the most efficient goals scorers per minutes played in the league. He is #6 on the list, in front of Raheem Sterling and behind Harry Kane. Who cares how he scores? The bottom line is he scores goals at an excellent rate, on a low wage, and with a good attitude despite being treated like crap for a lot of his Everton career.

I haven’t got a clue how he does it, but like you say he puts the ball in the net. He’s done it too many times and at critical points for it to be just a fluke. Also, as you say, his attitude is first class. I wanted him gone a while ago, but his bloody perseverance and his goals just cannot be overlooked.......
 

Positioning and finishing, those are the skills that Niasse doesn't have...[/B] You can not praise someone's finishing just because he scores. He scores but it doesn't make his finishing perfect. Take a closer look at his missed shots. All random, no striker technique, he is just swinging, kicking, pushing, fighting.

I can easily say that he is more like a bully in the school who terrorizes the little ones, scares them but there will always be someone who knows karate, krav maga, etc... to beat him up.

He has something precious tho, striker's luck. Many don't have that.

This guy can score somehow, I'm not a fan or not a hater of him either but he must remain in the squad. Just do not praise him blindly, it is funny he is being praised for what he doesn't have in his skill set.

Pacey, reads the game well, rarely gets caught offside, pulls centre - half’s out of position all over the gaff making room for other players to run into, scores goals, and being in the right place at the right time to score isn’t luck, it’s a knack, everything a good striker needs.
 

Niasse will be creating all kinds of hell with the signing of the boy Ritchie. I fully expect him to ascend to the level of Messi/Ronaldo/Kevin Phillips/Pele.
