2017/18 Oumar Niasse

[evertony]

If you're dissing Oumar then you need to take a long hard look at yourself. Look at his treatment and look at how he's reacted and what he's delivered. Then compare that to what's been delivered by the vast majority of this squad over the same period.

Only one winner here.

Oumar F****** Niasse.

Oumar F****** Niasse.

His previous treatment is irrevelant to his possible selection now.

We’ve won 4 out of 5 and people are calling for the centre forward who’s done well in those games to be dropped for him.

It’s just lunacy

You're going to love watching us under Sam.

If we get 10 million plus for him in January we should take it. Once we get another striker in first

Yes that’s exactly why people think he’s crap because he doesn’t do Rabonas & Calvert-Lewin does loads.

People think he is crap because they had this preconceived notion of him being the "next Ali Dia" or a "competition winner", some even going so far as calling him out for being some kind of pawn in a scam and are so very desperate to not be proven wrong that they keep trying to knock him even when evidence of him actually being half decent are happening right in front of them on the pitch.

He scores goals and he causes headaches for the opposition. I don't give a toss how many keepy ups he can do or whatever. The bloke has a very rare talent of being in the right place at the right time and is a very good finisher. He is also good in the air which gets overlooked. He aint perfect, nobody is, but he is a useful player who will always score goals like his playing history suggests.

This however is fair comment.

Like any other player Niasse needs to take his chance when it comes around and give the manager a welcome headache. Same with Baines and even Coleman when he gets back.

You dont change a winning team.

Niasse has the enthusiasm to chase the ball.

But we need a striker with the skill to hold the ball up and bring other players into the game.

 

[streeky]

In his own little way this lad started our turnaround and for that part needs to be respected until the management decide to move him on, until that day I think the match going fans will continue to love him.

 

[Fansince1988]

We’ve played with a holding the ball up centre forward for years!?!? Are you messing?

Lukaku (well he tried) Cahill (played that roll) Feguson (did it for years), there were times we didn't do it but then we bought rubbish strikers (well some Moyes ruined) you have to really go back to the 80s when we're really had fluent attacking strikers, you could even say Sharp played the hold the ball up roll at times then, Rideout? Campbell? Yakubu?.Im not saying Niasse is the answer but he's definitly good enough to be a squad player here, were not Man City yet.

Well i hope and it might be a BIG HOPE, that when things settle down, he may try to to make us more fluent in attack, just think back how many teams have won the PL using the hold up method every game, Leicester won it with fluent attacking, Man City, Chelsea, UTD (at times Fergie did use bigger strikers) but that did have more about them. If we stay playing that way we will just chugg along and never win anything.

Ok pal, convinced me there by using the liverpool match when he was out of position and we set up to camp in our own box. Can definitely use that match to judge him on.

Il just forget he scores goals. (You will say they are all tap ins and he has no real finishing ability but he has shown he can finish vs Bournemouth, and if they are all tap ins, who cares, his positioning is clearly good.) at least he is scoring goals (as many already as our 2nd highest scorer Last season, Barkley, scored all last season but off much much less time).

Positioning? He's scored two goals with his arse and one when he fell over... Bournemouth he was in right place at the right time and palace was a mistake from the keeper. The rest of the time he literally cannot control or pass a football

 

[Fansince1988]

not good enough, need a new striker in jan who can do both of niasse/DCls job

niasse is a truly terrible footballer but will score you goals

DCL is a lot better than niasse but the one things he lacks is goals

Well what's the answer then? I'd prefer goals.

He scores goal which wins games, DCL doesn't his looked good recently because of Rooneys purple patch, when that dries up who gets the goals?.

If you look at Keane for example, we may have a Manager that will do just that! Earn your place & keep it or enjoy the Pine.
