brummybloke Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Another appalling showing, he really has just dropped off a cliff, everything he touches turns to shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Same as Zaniolo. It's at the point now I think Emery is even thinking bringing them on, they're not going to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calcifer Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I really hope he comes good like Bailey next season. Bit of a busted flush this season, but Bailey was, now he is one of our better players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Pound for pound I’ve been most disappointed with him than any recent signing. I really had high hopes but it hasn’t happened, at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is going right for him, he's either got some major issues going on outside of football or he's just having a huge stinker which has lasted 5 months or so now. Today he was awful again.

maltesemike Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 How confident was everyone when they saw Diaby and Zaniolo lining up to salvage something from the game? The depth in our attacking options have been atrocious this season, makes our current position all the more remarkable when you think about it.

Callum Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Bailey showed regular signs of promise and was hampered by injury, which is a legitimate excuse for struggling with form for his first season. Diaby has literally created one goal scoring chance in about 20 games. No pace, no strength, no composure, minimal passing ability. Needs to pull his **** head out of his arse and stop moping around like he’s ’low on confidence’ I’m not buying it anymore. He’s a grown man who needs to show a bit of resilience, grit, energy, commitment, hunger, which any 50m+ professional footballer should have by default.

rbcuk Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Bailey was knackered, but when he come on did absolutely nothing as per the last few months, gets the ball and you know he’ll hit the 1st man with his crossing as he did all game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Considering what we've spent on him we could've spent half and got more for our money. Unbelievable, how bad he looks compared to earlier in the season. It's not like he's got injuries to fall back on as an excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted March 10 Author Share Posted March 10 With Diaby, I always come back to the question, ‘what is he?’. He doesn’t strike me as a winger as he rarely looks to beat a man. He’s not really a striker and he isn’t really technical enough as a 10. I dunno, I hope and prey it clicks, but I’m not sure in what position it will happen for him. Bit of a bizarre signing for me. Doesn’t really fit the system? Odd one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Everything changed for Diaby after his injury, so that's how I make sense of his spiral into the void. All we can do is hope some post season rest and recovery and a pre season reset get him back on track. Or maybe Emery decides to cut his losses and makes Diaby the one big name sale we make to comply with FFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Townsend Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 He looked world class when he first arrived. Not writing him off yet. I do think Nico Williams was Emery's first choice though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d have to sell him for more than we paid and even then in terms of FFP it would be barely anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the eye test says he’s just not doing it at the moment. I hope he has that one good game that sparks him into life, maybe that needs some luck first. Think the Burnley game destroyed his confidence as he missed so many chances that day Has looked a shadow since but Luton assist shows a player still there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, he looks like a little kid playing against men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
