He fluffed 3 kicks, two because he surely can’t have been used to the pace of the championship and the quality of the strikers. Made a few good saves, commanded the area, would’ve kept a clean sheet if Lloyd Kelly hadn’t smashed one in his own net. Granted he wasn’t the level of Niki or Bentley, but he wasn’t dire. Have we all forgotten Mike Hooper? If I remember correctly his first and only game was against Rovers? I will always remember his yellow gloves or marigolds!

Red-Robbo Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 We'll never know if Marinovic just had a terrible debut game but was there a decent keeper who'd just lost match practice and went to pieces after a bad start. We can't say he'd come good either. But we are judging him on 90 minutes. Diony made 7 appearances for us and was dreadful in every one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one wanted to pass back to him, no one trusted him, he flapped at everything, kicked multiple balls out of play. There’s a reason he wasn’t even on the bench toward the end You know that could be Fielding you are describing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually made a few saves, yes saves you’d expect him to make, but importantly a couple of them he pushed away from trouble. Yep, he had a shocker with his feet. Why did Johnson pick him so soon after arriving when Max had been decent enough? But he didn’t cost us a win. We played in fits and starts that night, Ipswich dominated for periods....Chalobah dominating at times. To blame our keeper when an own goal (not blaming Lloyd either) cost a clean sheet and a probably an undeserved 1-0 win, is harsh imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 I think some of the signings between 2010-2013 have been worse than Diony to be honest. Think people say he was the worst because of how recent it was. I definitely haven’t forgotten the likes of Styvar, Hunt, Bates, McManus, McGivern, Kilkenny, Stewart. All of which are right up there.

Kilkenny qualifies as my least favourite City player of all time. I couldn’t dislike Diony that much! Problem with Diony is that he seemed decent at Dijon but hasn’t been able to cut the mustard anywhere else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall correctly he played one game for us , looked tidy then got injured and we never saw him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been described by one commentator as ‘ the worst player in the division ‘ . St Étienne will look to offload him this season with interest , apparently, and staggeringly from abroad ! The player reportedly earns 90,000€ a month not counting bonuses . Don’t think we’ll have the pleasure of seeing him ever again in a City shirt . Surely he should be prosecuted for impersonating a footballer?...............If he can get away with it?, Good Luck to him. I guess It's the clubs that employ him who are the fools?
