Confirmed Signing Iliman Ndiaye

[carolinablue232]

From a BBC

"In fact, his stats show he is far more effective in that withdrawn, second-striker role, bagging seven goals in 13 games for Sheffield United in 2022-23, as opposed to just three in 26 when operating up top for the Blades.

Similarly, at Marseille, he was deployed all across the frontline but only once in his most profitable position. Along with only completing 90 minutes twice for the French giants, perhaps this helps explain his paltry goal contributions return."

Has to be the Doucoure upgrade who can fill in wide if needed. Hope he's not been signed with the assumption that we don't bring in an actual winger.

Is he injured yet?

 

[Gilbert..]

Might have been the championship but i quite like the way he looked comfortable running at speed with the ball under control. Slotted some nice finishes aswell.

I am hoping for good things

Boss, welcome Illiman.

15 mill, great deal, well done all.

Thanks mate, appreciate the kind words as I worked hard on getting it over the line.

Or he joined because he's a big fan of the bantz on grandoldteamwebsiteofbantz .com

I heard he was a blue kipper lurker

I'm a Blades fan and he was a special player for us, the most naturally talented I have seen. It may take a bit of time, but if you stay patient with him I think you'll see some player. He is definitely good enough for the Premier League.

He'll feel right at home then.

Oh Iliman Ndiaye
You came and you played without taking (penalties)

 

[DanB90]

Looks like the kind of player I thought we’d be getting when we were after Kudus.

A 10, but more a ball carrier rather than a playmaker.

(Yes, I watched about 40 seconds of a YouTube clip).

Who's our striker if Dom goes? Beto is like a tall Niasse. Chermiti looks like he's kicked a ball before in his life. He might have to get a chance.

IF Dom goes he needs to be replaced.

Beto and Chermo arent a replacement.

Chermo, MIGHT be decent, if given game time, but I dont ever see Sean Dyche playing a 20 year old ST, sorry.

 

[Blue Smoke]

Been watching a few of the video clips.

Not a natural finisher at all. Good close control but plays with his head down too much. Overdoes it too much. - Beat your man, commit the next, and lay it off to a player who is now in space should be what he does.
I think dyche will need to get the showboating out of his game and first impressions are that he may be more frustrating than effective.
Glad to see someone who has a bit of pace and dribbling about him though.

Could have pulled your finger out!

The Marseille fans are laughing at us. He's had a terrible season I'm told

He was their 2nd highest scorer, so the joke is on them really.
