2017/18 Oumar Niasse

[Harryflashman]

He scored off a bad touch on an open goal...says it all.

I think he’s at best average but at least he tried and put some effort in , if those at the other end of the field had put the same effort in then maybe the last two arsenal goalscorers would have seen a challenge as they casually waltzed towards goal .

Not by a blooming long chalk, it doesn’t.

That “bad touch” and “open goal” came about only because Oumar, with the team trailing 1-4 in injury time, hunted the ball down and forced that situation.

Then he lifted the ball and sprinted back to the halfway line to get the game started again as quickly as possible.

If our other, better players showed half the commitment, passion and indefatigably as Oumar does happen we would not be down among the dead men.

I'm not going to elevate sub-standard "cult heroes" because we're crap...stuff like this is why Moyes' name keeps coming up.

No....but you refusing to give credit where credit is due after making a silly comment about Oumar’s goal.

I can't see what some people are so against Niasse, he really isn't that bad and has an eye for goal he's worked hard to get noticed and done ok. If he plays regular for the rest of the season he would score atleast 10 in total.

Him and Rooney could get 15 each easily

You expect him to run around for 15 minutes, that's his job...the goal was down to Arsenal slacking off after they'd put 5 past us, nothing more.

4, sorry...better give him credit.

On that basis I suppose you think Ozil and Sanchez are crap , and their goals were down us having a shocking defence, “nothing more. “

May as well just tell him to leave then and take his goals with him cause he doesn’t deserve them. With that he takes nearly half our points with him. And the way it’s going, those 3 points he won us vs Bournemouth may prove very important. But no, he is obviously crap so doesn’t deserve a chance even when he is scoring and showing some passion when the rest aren’t.

He’s not my hero but as I said he tried . Sometimes the lad doesn’t even look like a top flight footballer but he chased the ball down and earned his goal ,at that stage more than half our side had stopped even bothering throwing a challenge in .

Come and see the violence inherent in the system...help, help I'm being repressed.

It was four at the time......they hadn’t “slackened off” enough to stop them trying to score again.

Oumar is doing well. His goal/appearance record is respectable. Plus he looks like he wants to play. If rather have 11 people who put in the effort than 11 who just make up numbers.
