SystonFox Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 i dont have alot of time for momo sylla as when ive seen him he's been useless bar one vs sheff utd at home last season, if he can get his ideas up and attitude right he could become usefull and "do a kisnorbo" (turn it all round), now that i would love but if he plays as poor as i have seen him we need shot of quick.

dandannieldanok Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 I don't think, in my opinion, there was ever a question of Sylla not trying, it was just he wasn't good enough most of the time. The same goes with Hamill, he was crap but he tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same goes with Hamill, he was crap but he tried. afraid i have to disagree with you there mate. i think sylla showed glimpses of quality during last season, i.e intelligent play, little flicks etc. but this was hugely overshadowed by his disgusting lack of effort. I remember the stoke away game in my mind, his effort level was disgraceful. But... i did go to the hinckley game and yes he looks like a different player, full of running and even defending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the level of commitment shown by Josh Low was anything to go by, Momo will be in line before Low. He didn't want to challenge on the floor and definately not in the air (worried about the wisdom of going for him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munf_1987 Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 Sllya has tried in one game which was sheff utd away even though we lost, he showed he was a really good player but i guess this was why he has been such a disappointment last season just he seemed to stop caring and trying and where in the 1st game he just attacked the full back, he just seemed to stop and loose the confident to try and beat the full back and lacked motivation as alot of the players did under levein but now hes had a kick up the arse from kelly, we;ll have to wait and see, hopefully he plays like he did in the 1st game of last season all this season MOMO, MOMO MOMO, MOMO SLLYA hope he doesnt play let me down now and make me look stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burger Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 I remember watching one game last season, I can't remember who against. He started off well, but then the fans got on his back, and it looked like it affected him really badly. I remember being annoyed at the fans, who expected every little trick to come off EVERY time, it doesn't work like that, especially not at this level. We're Leicester City for fox sake. Teams need players that can probe and penetrate, but fans have to be patient and understand players have different styles and means of showing effort, not everyone bursts seven hundred blood vessels in their Dickov every game. An 'acceptable' level of effort from players like Sylla and Williams will do for me, they have other talents that simple, hard working players don't. It's all a question of motivation, and what I've read about Momo in this thread is encouraging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newms Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 I remember watching the Sheff U game on tele and within the 1st couple of minutes he skinned their full back and put a quality ball in the box. I thought then that we had a steal from Celtic and someone who would help us towards the play offs. I think after that he got injured, disillusion and lazy under Levein, this meant that the fans began to get on his back. he then went to the African Nations and spent the whole time over there on the bench. When he returened Kelly was the new manager. Kelly gave him a game (against Derby i think) and i didnt think he was terrible but the crowd were really against him. Dont think he played after that. I feel that thus far Sylla's Leicester career has been stop/start. he definitely has more potential than the other players that were shunned during pre season (Hamill and De Vries) but I think its up to him to show that he has the right attitude and determination to warrant one last chance. If the reports of the Hinckley game are true it atleast seems hes trying t get back in Kelly's good books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 30 July 2006 Share Posted 30 July 2006 Actually, that knitters player is tracking back and closing down Momo on the wing. Paddy K just happened to be in the area at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 31 July 2006 Share Posted 31 July 2006 I would much rather Momo Sylla play than Alan Maybury at right wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 31 July 2006 Share Posted 31 July 2006 Yeah if you want an attacking player on the right. Maybury is just a safe option, no attacking threat but he can drop back and defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
