Oumar Niasse

[banno]

The Russian league clubs have been back in training for a few weeks now. Niasse may not be match fit but he should be nearly physically fit by now.

He said himself that he is supposed to be 2 weeks from the required fitness but it should only take him a week to reach fitness. So Yes you are correct

its great to be waiting to see him play just because he is new and cost a bit, rather than praying he can save us from continued poor form

Fat Stan found this to be an interesting little article from the Irish Examiner:

1 - why do you refer to yourself in the third person?

2 - This doesn't really need its own thread does it?

1. Perhaps a joke on Niasse doing the same thing?

2. Agreed.

I would have perfered to sign ighalo but he would have been harder to sign

Would have preferred to spend the transfer fee on defense, but this seems like a reasonable gamble against a Lukaku departure or injury. Most of the fee is offset by Naismith's departure anyway, and with the big TV deal money coming in next season, this transfer fee will seem like less of a big deal when we look back at it.

Only ever seen Niasse in this seasons Europa league, however bits and bobs so opinion goes off of reports.

Apparently he keeps himself in tip top shape all the time. And he has energy to burn. Which begs the question what job he will do in the side. I think he will be a left sided Lennon, just pressing up high and tracking back. But if that's the case we will miss Cleverlys ability to drift inside to help passage between CM and the forwards

Very very different players as far as I can tell.

Niasse seems like Sadio Mane to me. Ighalo is a powerful striker.

Has he got clearance yet guys?

Rumour from Twitter is he got it on Friday afternoon from a feasable ITK, but he's 3 weeks from full match fitness. Should be appearing from the bench in the next few games. Not confirmed by the Club that I know of, but the fitness thing was talked about by Bobby in his pre-game presser
