To be fair he scored for us last time he played except VAR disagreed.
Dan Assane Ndoye
- Thread starter Marco Pascolo
- Start date
The more I think about, the more I think we should keep Ndoye instead of Bakwa.

Let’s see if he has a good World Cup.
It could help with his value of course but also remind us why we paid the best part of 40 million quid for him

I said elsewhere but he'll probably have a good world cup as he always seems to star for the Swiss.

Cynical part of me thinks he's been saving himself for the World Cup these past few months. Not that there was much of a change to his performances from before that mind.

Jack Burkitt
Yeah like I say he looked sharp the last time I saw him play for us, then he got injured again so missed the mini-renaissance under Vitor at the end of the season. Could go either way and suspect a lot depends on how much he wants to be here.

Comical defending and comical goalkeeping, if there were a few teams in the premier league that replicated Jordan he'd probably be worth keeping

To be fair you’re right this could explain his injury troubles. As could him picking up a couple of injuries. He’s not played for us since mid-April.

Aye, I certainly haven’t given up on him just yet. I don’t like giving up on players generally, and last season was a cluster f*** of epic proportions.
I’m still not sure if he will be a Forest player come August but if he is, let’s see what he can do under Vitor.

He did score against Germany a couple months back too but agree, Jordan aren't a good team.

It’s because unlike many “getting rid” of players doesn’t motivate me much. I prefer to see us get the best out of them.

International football is a level below top-tier club football. Even with the same players the cohesion and sharpness isn't there like it is during the season in the Champions League.

I think the German national team would do OK in the premier league but anyhoo, I'm not arguing that he's going to turn it around for us, or that he's performed anywhere near where he should have for the money we paid. I was just noting that he hasn't just scored against the likes of Jordan.

When he leaves and rips it up at his new club everyone will say the club was wrong to let him go anyway

You also need to know when to cut your losses, and this Summer might be an opportune time here.

Yeah that’s true. It’s a wait and see for me, that’s all I’m saying.

Hopefully he grabs a couple of World Cup goals and we can trick someone into giving us 30m for him

Yeah I get that, I’ve been somewhat divided on Ndoye but he never manages to fully convince me he’s got that much to offer here, so whilst his stock remains high in Italy it feels like we could recover a good wedge of that fee back, and reinvest in forward areas without much risk of production drop off.

We've clearly not seen the best of him. When will we is the question

Some folk seem to revel in it. The quicker we can deem someone "not good enough for Nottingham Forest " the better, seems to be the approach. The concept of time to settle is foreign to many.

Nottingham's dirty secret
Hope has a good World Cup so we can cash in. He clearly suits the Italian League.
Bakwa got progressively better towards the tail end of the season & showed glimpses of what's to come. N'Doye seemed to get worse. Decent finisher though.

That’s the crux to me. Ndoye looked worse as the season went on

He didn’t play after the middle of April due to injury. Prior to that everyone was looking a bit crap.
Eleven minutes in the league since mid-March. He’s been injured.
