2017/18 Oumar Niasse

[Azzurri]

He has hardly been given a chance to wear the shirt, I'm not saying he's the answer to our striking problems but he's here on a wage and he's an option, so should be used not just frozen out.

There was talk of him being laughably bad in training before he'd even kicked a ball, then his performances against United and Leicester were enough for me. 152 minutes he's played apparently, that's 152 too many.

Obviously you must have been watching a different game, even Brett Angel couldn't have done any worst we took the word awful to another level tonight.

You do realise you are talking about a player the club new had made the biggest of mistakes in his first week at Finch Farm.

If thats your reckoning lets just give Ashley Williams a run up top

What about the game time he had at hull he scored against big teams there, so your saying players can't get fit and improve.

So do I but Lennon is cack niasse is worse lookman has been poor when played, how is that going to improve us.

I kind of agree about Lookman- he should be an impact sub

But ok ... bring back Mirallas then.

Team needs balance.

What about it? He scored 4 goals in 17 games. Not good enough.

Agreed.

Did you watch the game pal???? Their centre backs was laughing anyways. I reckon that baldy guy who played CB for Atalanta had more shots on target then Everton

Did I watch the game ?

No mate I was pre occupied polishing me helmet ....sake lad

 

[Bellz]

Save us Oumar.

 

[nsno-chris]

The bar has sank so low that Oumar is being touted as a saviour

Equates to around 10 a season if he plays every game. Baring in mind a lot of that time was coming off the bench.

Its more than what we offer as a team right now.

I hope he tells us to swing it.

He is the saviour we need but not the one we deserve.

To be fair to the lad he was injured when we bought him then barely got a game. He's now actually adjusted to the English game with his loan spell at Hull and playing in the U23s. He is obviously raw, he may be terrible who knows but we are currently absolutely desperate. We don't have a presence up front.

I would howl if he pulled a Florin Răducioiu and just blanked the bench when warming up

I couldn't blame him to be honest!

My take on Everton in 2017/18 so far...

+ Our best defender has been Wayne Rooney
+ Our biggest attacking threat has been Cuco Martina
+ We should never have sold a 37 year old Gareth Barry who although still a good player is at least 5 years past his prime.
+ We miss the universally derided Ramiro Funes Mori.
+ Our worst signing ever and comedy figure, Oumar Niasse may be our best option to score a few goals.
+ We have spent all summer trying to sign the best dead ball specialist in the league only to then give him nobody to aim for and not have a proper position for him to play in. Oh that's if he actually takes set pieces (which have been rubbish so far).
+ We have signed three captains of club and country (Rooney, Klaassen, Martina) and have less leadership than ever.
+ A possible answer is to rely on 2 teenagers who have about 30 top flight games between them (And Davies has like 99% of those games).

What an utter shambles.
