Not sure why but i still think there's a player hiding in niasse. Hopefully he keeps his head down and works his socks off and maybe he might br able to salvage his everton career. let's be honest if he makes the 1st team bench and comes on to score he will soon be forgiven.

He's been banging them in for fun in the U23s. I try not to go overboard but maybe he's worth a place on the bench. If he was a young scouser we would be calling for him to be given a chance in the first team squad. He can't be much more ineffective than Kone and Valencia.

Realistically I think I'm being blinded because I love an underdog. Imagine him coming off the bench to score the winner in a big match. What a story it would be!

There are two sides to every story, Niasse has made his public with an interview last week, it would be interesting if the club had something to say on the matter. For the record, and on face value from what he says, it is a bit naughty that he hadn't been allocated a locker within the U23's set up. That said, RK has tried to ship him out but the player didn't want to leave.
This suggests, to me anyway, that the lad is quite confident, that he believes he may be able to change the mind of his new manager. One thing we have always liked at EFC is a hard working, honest pro. If they give their all for 90 minutes then they will get our support. But the burning question is has he got the ability to turn this situation around? His stint in Russia tells us that there is a player in there somewhere but that league isn't the highest standard. Likewise, the U23 league isn't a true test of a player. From what I've seen of him in our first team, he seemed a bit lost on the pitch.
The best solution would be for him to keep his head down, his mouth shut and to bang in the goals in our second string until the next window. I'd loan him out to either a prem team (if any would take him) or a championship side near the top (if possible) and then see where the land lies come the summer. Either way, I hope he gets the football he craves whether it is with us or someone else, it doesn't do either him or us any good to see him languishing in the reserves when he is probably on a good whack every week.

Forgiven for what? The guys hasn't done any thing could have moved in the summer but wanted to stay n fight obviously feels he can offer something and now that his confidence is getting back he is maybe what we need in a option in attack.

The fella didn't want to leave and wants to prove he can cut it in the best league in the world in his opinion. He has certainly knuckled down and got on with it for the second string, but, Ronny clearly doesn't like him for one reason or another and I feel this may not be rectified and he will look to ship him out again in January. If Kone is getting on the bench ahead of you then that just proves that you aren't in the managers plans regardless of how many goals you score for the U23's.

If you've been told you have to leave to play football what reason would make you stay? He should have left and there is no way back for him. 5 goals in the U23's is not going to change things.

The fact he was arrested for assault at his hotel at 1am and the club condemning it probably tells you what you want to know. His Everton career is over.

It paints a picture that his character may not be right for Everton and may have a very poor attitude off the pitch. A staged interview with a paper to have a go at the club probably just keeps painting that picture.

Like blue tommy said he can't do any worse than 2 goals a year kone give um a chance. Rom maybe doesn't like um cause he felt he was coming in to take his job? Don't get me wrong, I love big rom when he's interested. there's not a striker in the league that comes near himl but when he's not he's a big lazy person. he needs competition.

I hadn't realised Kone had scored that many! Wow shows what I know!

And to be fair to Niasse. a contract is a 2 way thing. He signed it. but so did Everton Football Club. So he has every right to stay and try and change the manager's mind. If that causes Everton Football Club a problem, he has the right to say exactly the opposite to what Koeman is saying. ie I will stay and take the wages and try to get back in the coach's plans. Like some others, I love an underdog and would just love him to fight his way back. Can't see it though. The player I have seen is League 1 at best.
