BristolBEAT Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Noticed Diony is playing tonights game for At Etienne in Ligue 1. Featuring often most recently. Lovely mark of respect for Sala too. 50 seconds in. https://twitter.com/FCNantes/status/1090706612501839873?s=09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 St Etienne are fourth he is their second leading scorer with 5. Playing quite a bit too. They have done Sala proud tonight. Before the match an amazing tribute and they stopped the entire match in the ninth minute to give an ovation. Well done. Also seen a touching sign from Cardiff fans on display at Nantes.

It took me a few minutes to twig that all the Nantes players have `Sala` on their shirts too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong time, we were awful Watched quite a bit of him this season and he looks half decent although came on as sub in a local derby v Lyon, missed a sitter with seconds left and the oppo went up the other end and got the winner themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BilboBaggins05 Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Watched a Asse game a few weeks back. He came on the pitch, fell over and missed a header which lost them the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebristolred Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 I've said this before and I got panned for it. Diony was not useless for us. He barely got a chance in a team that was already on it's way down. Do you know how many minutes he played for us? 198. Just over 2 games, mainly from sub appearances. How many players shine that quickly? And yet many will have him in our worst all time XI's. He didn't score a respectable amount of goals in Ligue 1 by accident ya know!

Because to anybody who'd ever seen him play, his threatening pace, down channels, with speed of thought, didn't accord with the ponderous, multi-pass, fail to get forward then knock long approach we adopted for the second half of the season. Horses for courses and only mystery is why the hell we took him in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfcredandwhite Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 I read somewhere that Diony was seriously homesick and depressed. He must have shown SOMETHING in training to even get on the bench, but his head was elsewhere and it was plain to see he was not fitting in. The more the crowd got on his back the worse it got - not blaming the crowd btw - he was awful for us, but it would make a miserable player feel even worse if your own fans hate you. Good luck to him - but a learning curve for us too - we usually get the ‘head games’ right when selecting players, but we cocked up on that occasion. For me, Kent looked like a schoolboy player with a little bit of skill who wanted to take on the entire opposition by himself. The number of times he ran into traffic was crazy.

Mr X Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 If we were offered him for next to nothing I'd still consider taking him on a short term contract. From the (limited) time I saw of him there seems to be a good player in him and giving him a pre-season to get used to the tactics, new country and more game time I think he'd be a 10-15 goals a season player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
