Confirmed Signing Iliman Ndiaye

[efcste97]

Another sensible but not exactly exciting addition. Has the trickery & enough turn of pace to break the lines. Something we’ve lacked in the squad.

He’s going to be a fume magnet when he’s off form.

I don't know what you're basing this off, most off form players are 'fume magnets' from everything i've read/seen Ndiaye is a very hard working player.

Wears his socks at half-mast like another recent forward who was less than a success.
Can you guess who it is yet!

And one older one the late Dave Thomas, brilliant winger in his day, how DCL would have loved him on the wing, one the best crossers of a ball we ever had. Never wore shinpads either.

 

[Houghty19]

Just hope he's ready for his first vomit inducing training session

Feels like we’ve been doing mostly 3 or 4 year deals lately so 5 is a show of faith I guess.

More PSR friendly I would think

Abdoulaye Doucoure breaks 80% of our attacks down with his inability to play football

Having a player who doesn’t have the touch of pissed donkey will help us move up the pitch

If he's played there it's 100% a huge upgrade.

He's basically Dele Alli but actually able to play for the club.

Me too ,really excited to get this lad .
Just don't let him take the penalties -Barn door Barlow mkII ,he will get the fans off their seats for sure so I wish him all the luck in the world .I just wonder who he will play up front with unless Kevin has a plan .

Lets make no bones about this, very underwhelming signing, Ndiaye at the age of 24 should have made a mark somewhere by now if he was going to make it at the top level.

I`m certainly not getting excited by Ndiaye for over £15m when so close to PSR, jibbed the PL when Sheff Utd came up and was very very poor in a poor French league, 3 goals in 30 for Marseille and 21 in 77 Championship games doesn`t make me giddy like some others on here.

I fully back Everton getting the deals done early and understand the Tim and Harrison signings, but Ndiaye I can`t see working, we played better with Doucs in a midfield 3 and breaking forward, this guy is not a 10, he is a second striker and will be ineffective defensively..

So wide off the mark with this it's unreal.

United offloaded their best players like him and Berge and never replaced them. Ndiaye was linked to a host of teams, including us, and chose Marseille who were playing European football.

He was played outwide rather than down the middle which didn't benefit his game. Still played 46 times for them and started their Europa League Semi final.

We've bagged a good player and upgraded the attack.

Like the look of this lad. Could end up being a good signing. Hope so anyway. Welcome to Everton.

Agree 100%, this is a signing that could be in the Pienaar and Arteta bracket who had both been a little underwhelming before coming to us. Only time will tell but I think this fella is exactly what we need. He may not be a starter at the beginning but I think he will eventually cement a place in the starting 11.

And not to forget youg Ronnie Goodlass. He could take a defender on and whip in a decent cross. Remember the League Cup semi at Burnden Park when The Latch rose like a salmon to nod us into the (best forgotten) final.

 

[roy vernon]

He can trap the ball and run at pace with it, I just hope Dyche gives him a run in the role Doucoure has been playing. I think he'd be a massive upgrade.

 

[Blue Parkender]

Not a Dyche player.

Maybe Dyche won't be here that long, rumours that Friedkin will bin him for a proper manager.
