Diarra lately

I'm still not convinced Diarra is playing in his best position. He looks like a box-to-box runner to me, not a creative attacking mid. If anything, him and Sadiki should be fighting for a place and we need more quality around Brobbey.
it’s a good point also Xhaka is not going last forever le fee is prob the best fit in there with Sadiki and Diarra in front! Does he have the discipline to do it that’s another question?
 

Sadiki couldn’t finish a bar of chocolate Diarras final ball also needs a lot of work! Apart from that these two lads work their socks off and is their first time in the worlds premier league with the best defenders! They need tine to develop and let’s not forget Diarra had a bad injury and they were both away for afcon!
That’s the excuses regularly trotted out for diarra, it’s been months since he came back, let’s give him the first 3 to get up to speed, he’s still had 2 months to get up to speed, or maybe we wait until after a pre season?
 
There's definitely a player in Diarra for me. Shows glimpses of it from time to time.

Final ball and finishing has been poor of late.
As has been said he's had a bad injury and he's a young lad in a new country.

Unfortunately on here you're either class or absolutely shite. No in-between..

Think he'll come good.
 
This is is a myth, perpetuated on here. Every club’s fans have a whinge and a moan. Arsenal fans have at Madueke, Newcastle at Elanga, Tottenham were at Johnson (before he left), just off the top of my head.

Every time we have a poor performance we have this, suggesting Sunderland fans are different or worse to fans of other clubs. We aren’t, at all.
Wrong. You claim its a myth, by posting on a thread 70 pages long slagging off yet another young player who's only just made his way into the side. And again he's the number one to blame according to this place, despite us conceding 5 at home and 9 in 2 games - not really sure you can pin any of the goals on your number 10 tbh.
 
Confidence is rock bottom with him at the moment.

I'm sure he's a lot better than he's showing but he's in very poor form, and would probably benefit from some time on the bench.

The prize tag is going to be a problem for him because he looks way off the fee at the moment. It isn't his fault but it's natural I guess for people to go on about it.

What wrong? That every club’s fans have a whinge about players who aren’t performing?
I’ve also never heard him booed, as you claimed earlier.
 
He’s better than both sadiki and Diarra
He certainly isn't better at Sadikis role than Sadiki.

The posters point is Le Bris isn't going drop Sadiki for Le Fee, as completely different players/roles. And as it stands, given Le Fee is being shunted out wide so Diarra can take up the more advanced central role it doesn't look like he will be playing there either.

FWIW Le Fee should be more central IMO.

Does show he is talented every now and again. Hes still young and i think hes immature when it comes to his temper/frustration. He suits a forward role and seems to hate having so many players around him in the middle of the park

I'd disagree. Sadiki doesnt have the magic moments but he's one of our best and most reliable players

Regis is not change the two midfielders as they are so powerful and hard to compete with! Which means square legs in round holes you should not be playing two right footers on the left with hime left back it unbalances the team! Le fee on the right could be better option he is wasted on the left!
 
He isnit going to last long on the left in current form I would pick talbi in from of him and if he can’t get in to midfield ahead of Diarra and Sadiki where is he going to play?
Are you advocating dropping xhaka for le fee?
