Medrurkin Posted 25 January, 2021 Share Posted 25 January, 2021 Good indicators, and he is doing well so far. But the stats need to stand up against the strength and speed of the PL teams. I like what has been on display so far though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky break: younger, higher ceiling, fits the team like a glove. Ibrahim Sangaré was just a decoy, we were after Diallo all along, football geniuses that we are (or the Black Box).

trousers Posted 26 January, 2021 Share Posted 26 January, 2021 Interesting snippet from Ralph's pre-match press conference today. Whilst talking about Diallo he said: "I don't have a problem when Oriel comes back now because for such a player you always find a place in the team and when you have such a strong player we have a few similar positions to the 6 so I can imagine him as a 10 or a full back if it's necessary" So, looks like Ralph is contemplating playing JWP, Romeu and Diallo in the same line-up when all 3 are fit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forester Posted 26 January, 2021 Share Posted 26 January, 2021 Totally different types of player, which itself is very handy and gives Ralph tactical flexibility when both are fit along with JWP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must start ahead of Romeu. Nothing against Oriol....but he’s not as good in most departments. Last night, Romeu had an excellent game. Diallo didn't have his best game and was poor with his passing. I think we're sometimes too quick to write players off and last night showed that it is too early to trample on Oriol's grave .... Diallo is the future, but Romeu won't give up his place lying down. I still think that they have the potential to play together as their strengths are complementary, although judging by the injuries it may be sometime before we see that again.

saintwbu Posted 31 January, 2021 Share Posted 31 January, 2021 Romeu is better, no doubt, last night he was sensational. Winning the ball, beating players, driving us forward, he completely dominated the Aston Villa midfield from start to finish (when he got subbed). Diallo looks really exciting too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 21 April, 2021 Share Posted 21 April, 2021 God forbid a player has a poor run of form. He's shown us what he can offer, just struggling at the minute - like most of the team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadhall Saint Posted 22 April, 2021 Share Posted 22 April, 2021 We miss OR. Not sure that Diallo was expecting or expected to play as many games as he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
