Are we still using his one half decent season in France to justify his performances in the year 2025?

 

I thought this breed or person had died out. 

Sadly not. 

 

It's hard to support a club and be outwardly critical without being emotive. I fail at it a lot. Some people default to giving benefit of doubt and others to outward dislike.

They are pretty much saying every manager has played him wrong and thats why he’s been bad.

Isn't this how Ruud was playing him when it was Soumare and Ndidi in the Pivot?

Yeah to be fair you’re right there 

[Tielemans63]

I'd much prefer to see Hamza in midfield. At least he'll get stuck in and put himself about...and I'm not particularly a fan of Hamza

I've made us this handy countdown timer*. You're welcome.

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Yes, it's very petty indeed.

He’s poo, always has been and always will be.  For the price lid he may be the worst we’ve ever seen - who scouted him and thought this cart horse could 

play football in the English leagues?

Whole situation doesn't make any sense. If you put any 15-16yr old in his position he'll at least try to do something. He'll commit fouls, fight, run, tackle. He might fail eventually but he won't be a traffic cone. 

Tbf it's not Soumare's fault, other people inside the club believe he's a footballer. It's like NASA employing me to run their space program. What could possibly go wrong I wonder... 

[MaidstoneFox]

26 now, should be in his prime. Certainly gone pete tong here, the guy has 14 appearances for France under-21s, which you usually have to be quite decent to manage.

 

Looks like Patrick Viera in his Lille clips.

@Phil Mitchell thoughts?

[ithuriel]

Plays like he has a fear of footballs and moving fast, what trauma could have caused this?

[steveb]

The worst, unbelievable he is in anyones starting line up, a total passenger, Sunday i saw him go forwards once in the first quarter and hoped for a change, but nope, same old garbage

Funnily enough this is me every time Soumare starts

[Spudulike]

As we were ripping Sheff Wed apart in the last 20 minutes my son nudged me and said is Soumare actually playing? What's he for other than occupying space? Virtually nil contribution with the other players busting a gut. Passenger. Hope that Cifuentes is allowed to drop him.

 

You can feel the crowd want him to do well with more support than he deserves but enough.

I think that was the time he broke forwards to the halfway line then as we all expected…passed it backwards!!

More like when he passes forwards to a winger in space for them to attack.

Patrick and Yolande be a better midfield pairing than Soumare and Skipp

[em9999]

There has been more effort put into this thread than soumare puts into playing all season 

 

Nice

1/2 accurate long balls

0 tackles won

1 block

3 recoveries

He quite literally did nothing

Against the worst side you could possibly face at this level no less.

 

I'd take £100k for him. He's horrid.

I'm shocked I didn't think he played as well as the stats suggest

Louis Page cannot do worse than that. He should be starting at Preston.

[Chief Keef]

If he is used this season I hope it’s as an 8 and not a 6. He isn’t diligent enough defensively to play the role he was given on Sunday and doesn’t look comfortable playing out the back in this system.
 

His main quality is driving forward with the ball and I feel that would be used to better effect in the position Skipp is currently occupying. Should winks leave especially it would make more sense to have Skipp play in the 6 where he can just be used to break up play and not much else. 

[Dr The Singh]

Why isnt there any club stupid enough to come sign him
