Skirge Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 He's 18 Skirge, he hasn't been a flop. Well flop may be a bit harsh but not hit the heights they expected him to, hence the chance of him leaving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 PEA was a flop at Milan by the same definition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you even watch him play? Aye his scoring record might not have been the best but he was playing out of position and his general play made a big contribution to their up-turn in form last season.

ponsaelius Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Leaving on either a loan or co-ownership. They're not getting rid because he's possibly 5 or 6 years away from being a rounded player. FWIW I wouldn't take him. He'd not make enough of a short term influence ala Lukaku to justify buttering him up for another team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Yeah seems we are wanting that buy option but not sure Milan do, if he hits the ground running here they will want him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 He can in no way be our top target but Remy & Gomis in with this lad too would be superb. I think its more trying to show OL we are moving on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 It does seem unlikely, but you equally have posted a smug lol emoticon saying we would never get Ben Arfa, Cabaye, Sissoko or Debuchy etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hint: they don't exist. Niang is a young player who did all right at Milan last year. He's not anywhere close to the names you mentioned because all of them took a step up coming to us. Niang would be taking a massive step down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
