2017/18 Oumar Niasse

[eurosrees]

Slightly unfair as he has one aim and that is to force errors out of defenders.

Yeah fair play, he certainly does that, I love him, he’s the new Straq and his attitude is top notch.

 

[rochdaleblue]

If our so called better players, just put half the graft into a game that this lad does, then we wouldn't be in the position we are in. You only have to look at the world's best footballer...messi. Not only is he a fantastic player, but he's also one of Barca's hardest working players off the ball, pressing the opposition to win the ball back high up the pitch.
Niasse must feel he can now ressurect his career at the club, now Koeman has left.

 

[Blues Harp]

Exactly. I know of the great rip off Johnson carried out (physical stuff) from the club. But Koeman ripped out our spirit and credibility.

Two peas in a pod and the history books will register that fact too.

You missed out Billy liar there...

 

[Bagpuss]

Not the hero we wanted but the hero we deserve.
Well played Oumar, think I saw in one of the pictures of finch farm they have written in the gym ‘hard work will always beat talent if talent doesn’t work hard.’ This fella epitomises that mantra. He gets on the end of things he has no rights to and must be a nightmare to play against.
Showed a different side to his game playing that ball for Sigurdsson as well which I honestly didn’t think he had.
Keep it up Oumar, another 3 points at Palace and things will really begin to look up.

 

[Muggins]

..I thought he was a joke of a player but I hold my hands up to his effort and impact. No lost cause. My benchmark of a CF is what will the opposition CBs say on their trip home and today I think both will still be looking over their shoulders in case he’s still chasing them.

I salute Niasse, terrific today.

Haha.

Fair play to you Eggs.

The lad is hard. He’s earning some good money no doubt and could probably earn good money in lower leagues.

But he’s just not giving up. On a stage like this that’s inspirational. And for me, it says a lot about a person.

 

[TheBigIguana]

I imagine he'd score more if we actually created some chances for him. But fair play he makes his own luck

 

[Ibby]

Decent player.

It's the very least you expect of a player, that he puts in a fully committed shift for the club. It shows the mess we are in, that many of us are questioning certain players' commitment to the cause. That certainly can't be levelled at niasse.

 

[Groucho]

Imagine if Palace had signed him

 

[Blues Harp]

That goal just lifted the whole ground and you could feel that it may be possible to get a draw ...in the end it was even better. Lost my voice as well..

Did myself mate!

 

[Chestnut]

Thank flipping god we didn't sell him is all I can say.

 

[orly]

Let your bravery be the push for others to follow.

Father @orly prepare your confessional box please.

We are ready for confessing

 

[ilikecheese]

I hope his performance today inspires the lads.

I think back to when we signed Lennon and how he simply worked twice as hard as anyone else and kinda embarrassed some of the players. We turned a corner then.
