Still no way back for the lad.

It's not even a rumour that Koeman doesn't like him, he has outright said in public that he doesn't rate the bloke at all and if he wants to play first-team football then he needs to sod off. Imagine how much of a whopper Koeman would look if he uses him now after writing him off so bluntly?

Hope he gets a move to a decent team and his career works out but it won't be with us, no matter how many goals he slots in the reserves.

On the contrary. Koeman would show huge integrity by holding up his hand and saying fair play to the lad.
 
I think it's really tight that he's not been given a chance. As the boss says, 'OK, yes...' maybe he looked awful, but surely everyone knows that apart from adapting to football and fitness, people have to adapt to the country, people and climate, and maybe he just needed a bit of time. What's the problem if either Roberto or Foeman had just said (Like for example Wenger does so often) that he needs time to adapt and we'll see the best of him next season after a spell in the U23's. Why just freeze him out like this? He might have got better playing with Lukaku, he can't be any worse an influence in first team training than Clev or Kone or Gibson, and so why not just give him a chance and then write him off after a season if he's really rubbish? the only answer to all of this is that behind the scenes, he may have done something so unforgivable, off the pitch, that he has no chance back.

If that's the case they'd just sack him. The last place they'd put him is in with a bunch of relatively impressionable youngsters.
 

A decent championship striker would score a hatful in the u23s

See Phil Jevons and the like for details. Nearly 1 in 2 in our reserves; then a lower league journeyman.

Niasse is garbage. If this wasn't the internet age, nobody would be talking about him and rightly so. He blew his shot at our first team, because he's quite clearly nowhere near the level required for it.
 

I put the blame firmly at the feet of Martinez in regards to Niasse, thought he was treated like crap by him, things might have been different if he had been given a fair crack by Martinez.

Martinez bought him then realised how gash he really was in the flesh, uttering some garbage about him having a sprained wrist or other ailment early on.

Vardy has a similar bandage but it doesn't stop him.

Maybe he got the sprain via his missus!
