Haha mate, you just brought him up as a player full of tricks who didn’t make it at Everton. Now I’ve fully lost what your point about Bolasie really was. It read to me that he was a good player but didn’t make it because Evertonians didn’t rate him. 

Bolasie was a show pony who couldn't score goals. He had a handful of assists but that's it.

His game was lacking before the injury.

Not trying to be funny, but as the only person who wants to see him play, what have you seen in him that is more useful than DCL, Richarlison or Kean for him to warranty playing instead of one of those lads?

And, to be funny, have you ever actually seen him play? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen every minute he’s played for the first team, I can promise you, he’s shite. 

Finally, Marcel Brands stood you at the AGM and said he’s trying to get rid of him. 

Probably because I feel Niasse has been unfairly treated during his contract with Everton. He has already proven he can score premiership goals. His record in the 2017/18 season was a goal every 135 minutes. This season, Richarlison average a goal every 228 minutes and DCL average a goal every 149 minutes.

Perhaps you judged him on appearance similar to judging a book by its cover rather than reading the book itself. If show pony tricks are the order of the day then why aren't there a queue of premiership clubs signing up freestylers on Youtube? The reality is scoring goals is the hardest skill in football. Bolasie had lots of fancy tricks - didn't last long at Everton, did he?

I hope he does... at another club. If we can find a club the superstar deems suitable, of course. And we all know he’ll have his pick of clubs with all that talent. 

In the meantime I'll be expecting more Niasse game time.

We’ll see when it comes to renewing his contract just how much Carlo wants him. Not to mention we’re actively trying to get him out of the club. You keep telling yourself he’s decent though. 

I suspect Niasse will play an active role until the end of season. What happens during the summer is anyone's guess.

I’m judging him on everything that he’s ever shown. The Newcastle example just sums him up to a tee.

You can keep going with this until you’re red in the face if you like. 

No need to. The only opinion that matters is Carlo's. Big Duncan is also a fan of Niasse. He knows his game. You obviously don't.

It’s personal opinion after watching him show countless times that he lacks ability in an extreme way. You won’t even find his biggest “fans” saying he has ability, it’s all about his determination.

Against Newcastle he has a breakaway on with DCL supporting him, his next touch was a fucking tackle and he lost the ball. That’s a lack of a ability. Not to mention Newcastle then went down our end and scored their first. 

He hasn't played at this level for a while so of course his touch isn't going to be perfect. 

A lot of Niasse's critics have a Fifa playstation approach to how a player should play. In reality it takes time for a player to warm up and adapt to the playing climate. To judge him on limited playing minutes, to me, is shocking. I rather judge him once he has played at least 6 weeks worth of games. Anything less then you are judging a rusty player.

He's scored 12 goals in 4 years. 4 of them for Hull. And one for us with his arse.

It is very difficult to score goals when playing for clubs fighting relegation. However, he has manage to score against Man Utd and Liverpool while playing for Hull. The Cardiff manager was full of praise for him. 

His scoring stats on goals per minute was impressive when Koeman brought him back into the team. 

I've seen enough of Niasse to realise he has enough attributes to play in the premiership. Any cries of lacking in ability is based on personal opinion.

Bad player, great attitude and determination. Not good enough for Everton technically, but has the mentality most players here lack. 

He has shown at times good technical ability.

Remembered watching Toffee TV when one of their guests insisted Holgate wasn't good enough at this level. Less than six months later, he's touted for England.

Fuck off. The least this lad deserves after all he's been through is just a little bit of appretiation! For the limited time he's been on the pitch, he got us some pretty important points. For those keep bashing him he's not good enough, yeah tell me something I don't know. And how the fuck you judged his contribution for 5 fucking minutes yesterday in a moment when the whole team had a mental fart!? Sick of reading this kind of bullshit. Sorry for double post.

Well put.

However, I still believe he's good enough at this level based on his high energy, high pressing game and strength. Yes, he hasn't the finesse of a graceful footballer but then he has the necessary attributes to change a game like he done against Bournemouth.

Anyway, I'd expect Niasse to get more games for Everton. Couldn't care less what other forum members think. 

Most of Silva's problems stems from players from previous managerial regimes. He just needs another three players: right centre half, defensive midfielder and striker.
