As much as I appreciate him now, I still think he's better coming off of the bench at home. He's scored enough I'd keep him around the squad for that.
 
we can't afford to sell him, can we? I'd want another striker in in the summer, which would have niasse as a fairly decent 3rd choice striker, but right now, we shouldn't be selling him. He's our only goalscorer.
 
A sad indictment on our team that he’s still so important to us. We’d be foolish to let him go this season, could take Tosun a while to settle.

Fair play to him though, limited footballer but works hard, hassles defenders and a good finisher. Deserves all the praise he gets and more.
 

I'm sure he would be more than happy to be an impact sub, well worth keeping on the bench.
He comes off the bench with fresh legs a bit of pace and can cause a bit of chaos or poach us a goal. That's his level. Over 60 minutes from the start he's shown he's not as effective. That's probably more to do with him being better suited to the higher tempo football we play when we're desperate to score than the crap hoofball and sideways possession we play before we inevitably concede.
