Iliman Ndiaye

You’d imagine there would be someone somewhere who could tell the difference.

Come on, the way we play is soul destroying for any forward players. He has nobody around him, if he goes for a give and go with Beto or Barry, he wouldn't get it back, there are no patterns of play, he's got a 6ft 5 centre back behind him who can't link up with him. It's like when we had Dom chasing aimless balls all game, getting slammed by centre backs, running himself into the ground and then we complain when he misses chances. Our football, under Dyche and now Moyes is from a bygone era.

Jack Grealish got double his assists (6 vs 3) for the entire season despite being injured for half of it. By the third game of the season he had already got more assists than Ndiaye would do over the season. Plus he constantly talks well about Moyes...so maybe it's not totally all bad?

That last bit aside, maybe Ndiaye's just ready to move on and that's fine, it's understandable. But I think you're making excuses for him a bit here. There are certainly issues with our setup, but I still think Ndiaye could do better too.

I'll add again, I'd like him to stay as he's fun to watch and we need some of that, but I think it's also fair to say he could've done more last season.

Not even getting into Senegal's starting 11.

Strange how Idrissa is fit to play though.

[Kerryblueboy]

Gana is definitely out this summer strange to see ndayie not playing

[Cereal Killer]

Not as good as Jackson, Sarr or Mane

[Indiantoffee75]

I don't begrudge any player wanting to move on to better there career. It's the same in most industries/sectors, people moving on to further advance careers.

Fair, fair. I’m just devastated he’s leaving

Being saved for the bigger group matches?

[Cereal Killer]

Must be training as well as he finished the season playing for us, at least he’ll be getting a rest now

[Kerryblueboy]

Assist straight after coming on

Any hints?

"Their username rhymes with"?

[Toddacelli]

Can't really blame him, as an attacking, flair player it must be sole destroying playing for us with our tactics.

Particularly hard on the boots, is it?
