Diedhiou is growing on me. He put in a motm performance yesterday by all accounts and topped it with a superb headed goal - one of the best headers I’ve seen. He hasn’t scored as many as a centre-forward should, but he contributes so much - his defending is superb when helping out at the back. He seems a nice guy too - with the right attitude - he really engages with the fans. I admit that I was a bit ‘meh’ towards him at first, but he has matured in so many ways and is winning me over. What a player he is and he’s ours!
Seems that being on international duty has improved him. He’s a 1 in 2 games for Senegal, makes him better than Mane
I think the competition of having Wells in the squad now inspired him a little, now he has serious competition, and he knew his place was under threat. I thought Weimann was off the pace yesterday, which is unlike him.
Afobe back soon-Wells in his spot is under pressure. If that don’t inspire him nothing will. Great to have the competition.
