Where is he now? No mention, not on the bench since Africa. | | | |  |

I'll assume he's injured still , until someone confirms otherwise?
No mention of him returning to fitness.
It would be shame for him to turn out to be a dud, because when he runs with the ball he looks awesome and terrifies teams. | | | |

Someone posted the other day that Harry doesn;t rate him, he is injured and that we trying to get rid of him during the window. Assuming that he is actually mentally stable, despite the jokes, I think he is a real talent and would love to see him develop at the club. | |

If true about Harry not rating him then I am getting a bit worried about our player policy. Both Diakite and Faurlin are both young players that need a bit of work but have shown massive potential. | | | |

Agree 100%. | |

Diakite is awesome when in the mode. I think he has suffered with our general performances this season.
Remember when he ghosted around Gerrard (and a few others) last season with little effort? | |

Also concerned about Harry's in-or-out policy. Fair enough to get a player out if he doesn't like him, but get a replacement first! | |

beginning of season i was telling friends to watch out for him, the new viera i said, a mix of gerrard and wilshire i said, telling them to put him in their fantasy teams, a bargain buy etc etc how wrong was i? | | | |

ha ha, bit like me telling a mate that Cisse was a good each way bet for top scorer based on last season and pre season when he was scoring for fun! | | | |

you know what, i nearly used my free Skybet £10 on cisse to be top scorer in the prem, what with all the servcie he'd be getting from hoilett and park on the wings. instead i used that bet for the swansea game, cisse to score first and rangers win 3-0  | | | |

I was actually fool enough to stick money on Cissé to be top scorer each way.
How much of a muppet do I feel now!!! | |
| |

In all fairness I would have put of put money on that too. I really thought he would get 15+ goals for us. | | | |

The Racing Post tipped Cisse at 80/1 each-way so you weren't alone. | |

He's still injured I think.

| |

He got a concussion in the semi final best part of a month ago.
Was offered as bait in a couple of January moves that didn't happen and when asked if he could have a role to play, Dave Mc didn't think so. | | | |

Liverpool was his last game, he must have caught quite a lot of the blame for that mess. Shame it hasn't worked out, he looked a really exiting talent at times last year. | |

We don't have time for them to reach their potential. Potential should be used when talking about a young player who is in the youth team.
Faurlin is 26 years of age and Diakite 24, they are not kids anymore and if they can't cut the mustard they have to go. Look at Sissoko at Newcastle, he is 23 years of age signed for Newcastle and settled in straight away. There is no talk of potential, he is producing the goods - that's what we want.
Fed up of carrying and mollycoddling players. | | | |

I do see your point, but that is the kind of short term thinking that has got us into this mess. Plus, plenty of players look great when they first come to a new league and then fizzle out - Gylfi Sigurdsson being one of the most recent examples. Once people spotted that his main threat was his long range shooting, they made sure to close him down near the box and he has become less successful.
I'd like us to do more coaching of players we have rather than just buying and selling the whole time. That's what management is all about - or at least, it should be. | |
