Diarra lately

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

He was superb against Burnley, so he does have talent.
But his attitude since then has been atrocious, like playing with ten men. Even his penalty at Leeds was abysmal.

He has the ability but needs to be doing more IMO.
If he wants another big more he has to be performing higher and more consistent. West Ham and Burnley games are his standouts .. the rest meh.

Maybe it’s taking the lads some time to adapt?

 

[hawaymadlad]

He just tries too bloody hard. Keep it simple and work your way up.

Lad thinks he's prime Pogba already.

He tries too hard, when he does try, but he doesn’t try enough.
I hope he’s nowhere near St.James’ park.

 

[columbo70]

I wouldn't go this far but his attitude has been poor last 2 games. It's good to be confident but at 22 you have to accept you have things to learn too.

He was absolutely shocking with the goal... pathetic play acting in your own six hard box when your team is defending...he needs to knock that out of his game asap. Got some bad habits playing with Senegal etc.

He does, aye. Been diving a canny bit all season, the cheeky bugger.

Still a machine, though.

Vibes …. Was a disgrace today

He started so well against West Ham in the opening game but rather than improve following AFCON he seems to have gone backwards.

He’s obviously struggling and every aspect of his game looks poor. He can’t run with the ball and keep it under control, his shooting is wayward and even a simple cross seems beyond him. To top it off he can’t take throw ins.

On current form he shouldn’t be in the side but injuries are really killing us

 

[Mackem DJ]

He scored two scuffed goals vs Burnley and bar that he hasnt been above a 5/10 in any game imo.

 

[pRICK]

No one on the bench to replace him

Not true. Could have reshuffled players and adjusted formation

Even then, the shot vs. West Ham needed to go across the keeper and I remember him being pretty quiet in the second half.

 

[babazinetti]

For 30 f***ing mill you'd expect a lot more than the shite he's dishing out

 

[Dodgy]

Just walking out, whether the ability is there or not I dunno but what I do know is he doesn’t have the heart the rest of the squad have

Never stopped trying. He's just completely lacking confidence.

 

[Quack]

Strasbourg hasn’t been part of Germany since 1945, mind

Been on the drink in Tenerife for 5 days straight mate I don't know what day it is now

 

[Hot Since 82]

Him, Talbi and Isidor have one heart the size of a pea between the 3 of them. Absolutely gutless.

 

[Smiter]

Says nothing about me as a person so gan fuck

This says as much about you as a person Grines.

 

[hypersonic]

Faked a head injury instead of getting up and defending before the goal. Pathetic from him.

Least of my concerns with him today.

Every team does similar antics to try and stop attacks. Problem he had was that he generally doesn't get involved in our play. When we've got the ball he just gets bypassed.

 

[The Beautiful Game]

Shouldn't have faked injury but didn't play them inside at all. From the little I've seen I would say bad keeper positioning to blame

Not at the point minteh strikes it, but after we clear the ball we have to stay in our six yard box. We should have been out but he forced us back in.

 

[Noiser]

We haven't seen the best of him. But let's not write him off yet lads and lasses.

Came in, started brightly, had an injury and has been playing catch up since.

This forum has written off many a player who has gone on to do well for us. We haven't seen the best of him yet.

He was shite, and has been shite, but he's a young man. It's down to the coaches now.
