Olivier Ntcham

My favourite player at the moment. He's got it all. Always making himself available for a pass and looking to run or pass forward. Really strong, * players off him. Good in the tackle, and for a cm has no bother darting down either wing to get us up the pitch and nearly forgot to mention can shoot aswell

 

Wouldn’t quite say my favourite player but love the way he plays. Always looks available for a pass and has a great football brain.

 

He's really coming onto a game. Wasnt convinced with some of his performances at the start of the season. But as he is settling in he's looking more and more of the player we expected when we signed him.

I remember when big Victor Wanyama first signed. A few of his early performances were dreadful. And look at the player he turned into. Im hoping its the same with big Ntcham

 

He reads the game so well. Interceptions , using his body to protect the ball , tackling, possession retention - those are his strong points. He can also spot a killer pass , and has half an eye for goal - if he adds goals regularly we are on to a star.

Set pieces are not his game though .

 

overall think he was our best player the other night, his strength on and off the ball and his discipline in defending when he had to, intelligent calm player who can pass shoot score tackle and had a bit of skill aswell but like has been said is * at corners, dont know why he wasn't taken off them the other night, i guess brendan had every one in other important roles and therfore thats why he stayed on the corners

 

Right now he's mine, when I see he's starting I feel comfortable that we have creativity in the midfield and I know he's going to work his socks off

 

I was thinking this the other day. I feel that he is as close to Petrov as what we have had in a while. Does a bit of everything and likes to support the attack. Loves a shot too.

 

Still raging about the fact he didn’t play against the Huns at the new year.

Beautiful big stallion.

 

This bhoy has the potential to be another Wanyama if he carries on .

 

When he first came he was a bit * in europe. Expected with no experience, nerves and being young. After half a season hes already this * good. Only way is up and i cant wait.

 

He was nothing short of amazing against Astana to be fair. We saw how good he was early on, just inconsistent. Seems to be stringing good performances together now.

 

Yeah he's a top talent. Seems like he's got a good mature head on his shoulders and is passionate.

 

100% haha ntcham and kouassi a couple months ago were both duds that we overpaid for. Shocking really how quick some fans jump on a players back just so if they turn out to be bad purchases they can say I told you so

 

Read similar about Édouard as well even though he's hardly had any real first team football and is just 19 on loan in a foreign country. Think we forget these lads are still so young and learning. Need time to find their feet.

 

and after a few games you can see their talent and potential. Edouard I think looks great lately just needs to add more goals and he'll be a bargain for 7/8 mil

 

He dug us out a hole in Astana with both his composure on the ball, ability to run with the ball in midfield and most importantly his goal when our backs were to the wall.

There was always bound to be a transition period until he settled and understood his rold in the team but he will only benefit from a continued run of games
