So now the Niassie debate will rumble on shame he didn't start last night would be good to see what he gave us over 90 mins
Positives he showed a few good touches and took his goal really well
Negatives it wasn't what will be our starting 11 in the league and it was only 24 mins
Personally I think he needs to be given a chance in the league I do think him and dcl could complement each other quite well but can't see koeman giving that a chance as struggle to see where Rooney and siggurdson fit in if playing 2 up top.
Just on a side note and away from any debate on his ability I think the lad deserves massive credit and respect for the attitude he's shown after the way he's been treated so refreshing to see him put his head down and graft especially pleasing when we have had to put up with lukaku attitude and Ross and Kevin both being like stroppy kids it's nice to see that he seems to have the just get on with it approach it may not be the answer but attitude goes a long way and it's as a club what we need.

To be fair Calvert Lewin scoring 2 justifies not starting Niasse. But for me Niasse HAS to be on the bench on Saturday with Calvert Lewin starting, irrespective of whether Rooney plays or not.

I agree mate to be honest I'd like to see them both playing think they could really work well together.
