Reminds me a bit...of how Davies uses to run with the ball? Like similar build and not quick, low socks and winning free kicks, but obviously has some skills.

Certainly doesn't look like an Olise or benrahma who at that level were like obv super silky, or zaha or someone who was just so explosive...just sort of like quick feet and jumbly.
Have you just give us a Yannick Bolasie scout report :?

He went to professional level quite late (at 19) so in theory he’s got more development to do than your normal 24 year old

Apparently Bobble has said on their podcast thing that Ndiaye has completed his medical. Just a question of PSR timing around completing the deal now I guess.

I wonder if it would make more sense to complete the deal on July 1st.

Pepe, ndombele

Are these recent enough for you?

I was just taking the piss with bakayoko

I do think this guy will be very meh tho

He is slow clumsy greedy, take a look at his highlights and there isn't much in there to get excited about

Granted we need players in so it's fine I just don't see him as an upgrade,

I am pessimistic but the last few years have give me reason to be

After watching a few highlight videos he reminds me quite a lot of Richarlison. He does use skill to beat players but it’s never super clean so it’s more like he fights his way past, Richy was the same.

Looks like he can carry the ball forward well like Doucouré and will put a shift him so I see the fans taking to him.

I think he’ll be a good solid signing if he stays like he is, anything above that is a bonus

His end product looks well ropey from the YouTube clips, but we couldn't work out a way to play without Doucoure last season, and I think with this guy we now have that... We've seen with this team under Dyche that the system is the most important thing and when an important piece is missing it all falls apart, fingers crossed this lad solves the Doucoure issue.

I think he's a bit more technically gifted that Richarlison, and seems to enjoy playing through the middle of the pitch more. I can see the comparison in running style and physicality. He seems to have a decent weight of pass from the clips, and 11 assists in his last season for Sheff U (in addition to 14 goals) seems to support that.

Don't think he's good in the air, so we can't afford to be lumping it long to him.

I'm quite excited by this one.

Yeah that's a point, if we sell DCL we have Beto who isn't a target man and Chermiti who is too inexperienced to lead the line full-time.

Ndiaye looks like he can play a through ball, which compliments Beto's strengths, but if we want to play direct to the striker to hold it up, we really need to bring in a target man.

We might have to play a bit of footie. Perish the thought!

He only played once for them in the prem, other 2 seasons where in the Championship.

Think he will do fine though.

Offers something we haven't got currently.
