I would quite happily not discuss him again, but if others ask me or provoke me to respond I will give an opinion.

When you say understanding you mean "What I made up in my head".

“He (Niasse) was voted the best footballer in Russian League and is a player who can be very important for us. In January he needed to work on his fitness, and now he's at a level where he can compete,” said Martinez.

“He's not the finished article. His contribution was important. Rom has played 44 games and the FA Cup semi-final was demanding, physically and mentally.

“Oumar worked his way into the game, and the fans were able to see our player. You need to have a belief in all the players we have in the squad – and I've got that belief in Oumar.”

Chatting wham.

Here is Dave Whelan saying Martinez turned down Liverpool because he wanted full control of the football.

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan claims manager Roberto Martinez has been made an offer by managerless Liverpool but will await a further meeting before making his decision.

The Latics boss met with Liverpool's principal owner John Henry in Miami yesterday to talk about the vacant Anfield job after interrupting a family holiday in the Caribbean.

It was expected Fenway Sports Group would speak to other candidates on a short-list in the coming days but Whelan suggested developments had progressed.

He did, however, say Martinez - who would be expected to work under a technical director - wanted to negotiate a greater degree of control of footballing issues.

"I think what he has said is, 'Thank you for your offer but I only work under the following rules: I have to have complete control of football'," Whelan told Sky Sports News.

"That's normally the way in England, that's how we all work.


And here:

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan spoke of how Martinez decided not to take up FSG’s offer to move to Anfield.

“They set down their rules on how they saw the role and the way they wanted the team run and that was not the way Roberto would do it,” Whelan told ESPN.

“Roberto has his own way of doing things but they are American owners who have their own ideas of how it should be done. They are entitled to want to do it their way and Liverpool are a big club so I can see why Brendan Rodgers has opted to go there and good luck to him he’s a fine coach.

Is this personal belief or something you've heard. I think he bought him and it just turned out gash. On paper (and YouTube) he looked like that perfect left winger/2nd striker to compliment lukaku; fast and direct to take defenders away and create space

He just couldn't play football very well

No. Word of mouth at the club.

Kevin Reeves spend 5 days scouting him and he was due to play a training tournament in the Canary Islands where we could have watched him in 3 games before signing him, but we signed him before (actually much earlier than announced). RM never saw him play, and after 3 days in training everybody had made their mind up.

That would make the whole "player for next season" thing make a bit more sense.

Say what you want about the fella (and people do..) but he seems to have a decent eye for goal for someone who isnt an out and out striker and by all accounts he is a good athlete so maybe Martinez or whoever thought they could make a player out of him. Koeman (like most great players actually) may not have the patience/understanding to put that effort in and would prefer the finished article (nothing wrong with that either), who knows?
