In fairness, he was brilliant at defending the near post and "mid goal zone". Not sure I'll miss it though. I'm very much looking forward to (hopefully) having a striker whose greatest asset isn't his ability to defend corners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he have access to all of the City players' contracts? Nagh, don't think so. Could be some disingenuity here from Ashton though. Namely, biggest contract offer ever for Fammy not for the club. Bending the truth a little, an outright lie or Fammy just wanting to leave with his reputation intact? As others have said he slacked off enormously in the final 1/3 and that tells it's own story. You remain professional and hard working till the last and if you don't we don't want you at Ashton Gate. Thanks for the goals Fam but time to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finley_Smith10 Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 A mate of mine who scouts for a champ team said he turned down 25k+ a week from them apparently (obvs not 100% sure, could be just speculation). Good player but can do better in my opinion, get some pace up front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 If I think about Diedhiou with clear reasoning I’ve decided that I would have been more upset if he HAD signed a new deal. Our time with him has done. I’m looking forward to starting afresh with a new striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcredandwhite Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 I quite like Fam overall but my goodness he was frustrating at times - and if he really wanted to have stayed with us it didn't show in the games he played for Nige - it didn't look like he was trying to impress his new manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loco Rojo Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 Neither of them come out of this looking innocent. If he never wanted to leave, he'd have found a way to sign a new deal. Given Fams recent performances (or lack of) he showed he wasn't the sort of player we want at this club taking up a salary anyway so good riddance (to both).

Sturny Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 Remember that month where we started another in-form striker infront of him, Afobe wasnt it? And it showed us what we were missing at times, felt it exposed fam quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His output was somewhat patchy, though he seemed to hit straps in the run up to and including the window... Could be coincidence but... 1st goal- 22nd November (Derby) 2nd goal- 9th December (Blackburn) 3rd goal- Boxing Day (Wycombe)- and what an excellent strike it was! 4th goal- 10th January, (FA Cup v Portsmouth). 5th goal- 16th January- (Preston). 6th goal- 23rd January (FA Cup v Millwall) 7th and 8th goals- 26th January (Huddersfield). Then extremely little performance wise and in fact zero goals and assists- save for the excellence at Middlesbrough- 2 goals, an assist and a very good all-round display. Why Middlesbrough? Well a) Was it as NP watching on for the 1st time or b) Was it as he was linked with them on a free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we all hoped Diedhiou was going to really flourish here and we would be worried bigger clubs would be sniffing and we would find it impossible to hold on to him. It never got to that level and infact his career here for whatever reason deteriorated quite spectacularly. I think his time with us had come to a natural end and just coincided with the end of his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also say it's a bit unprofessional to discuss contract details on Twitter, no matter how pissed off you are Great? Wouldn't class him as one of our great players, compared to some of the other players we've had. Best I can say, is good at times, certainly not great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep Hav, the spread of his output as you say is a shocker. I'm thinking, hoping that we will be able to when Diedhiou departs, work towards a bit more of a pressing game, pressing and quicker style of play. He has his uses, that isn't one- and post January, one game aside he was of very little use at all tbh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
