Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Bad, bad night from this fella last night, poor finishing and decision making cost a couple of certain goals.
Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Been pretty shite since AFCON, legs look heavy compared to before. Think it took too much out of him. Even those shots were weak when we know he can generally strike a ball well.
Re: Iliman Ndiaye
With Grealish out it's obvious he thinks he is the main man and declines to pass to team mates who are in better positions.
Thought he was pretty greedy last night and his finishing was poor.
Cost us two points.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Don’t think he was terrible, but games like that do underline why his assist/goals stats kinda look a bit light to what you might expect given his broader performances.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
We've seen the best and worst of him recently. The finish against Chelsea was excellent, but as others have said, he made poor decisions last night and then failed to deliver. I don't mind him going for it, but every finish he attempted was tame.
He's looking tired, as are a few of the others who play every minute of every game.

If someone offered us silly money, I'm not sure I would that disappointed if we decided to take it and rebuild the side with a different attacking outlook.

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Nah, we've got too much to do, selling him and asking for a replacement who gets near his ability and rebuild is just not likely.
Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Zero chance of getting anybody with his ability.
But getting someone who can match or surpass 6 goals and 3 assists in a year? With "silly money"?

Re: Iliman Ndiaye
Why are we so keen to get rid of our best players. Keep them and build with them.
We'd not get silly money for him, and we'd be unlikely to get anyone as good to replace him as the ones we'd want wouldn't come, even if we spent it wisely.

Him and KDH looked like they’ve never played football together before today.
Fullback an issue again.
He cuts inside because there’s nothing on the overlap, takes in two or three, finds himself on the right and there’s no fullback there either so he runs into trouble.
No issue with him but he needs to be better infront of goal, for sure.
