Interesting link. Would love more if this type of signing.
Daba Diakité
- Thread starter Berbaclass
- Start date
Dabbing is back at OT
Quick YouTube search and the first clip is 4 mins of him misplacing passes and looking like a pub footballer in an African league. This a comically laughable signing if true.
imagine playing in Mali as a young lad and United come in for you
if this is parody well played
This is especially funny on the day someone posts a thread about how we should sign PL players because players from other European leagues are not succeeding when transitioning to this league.
Man Utd: "Heard. Here is a player from the Malian league"
Not saying I am opposed to it for what it's worth, time to start cutting out the middle man (French clubs) when looking for African talent, if he is good enough.

Manucho style transfer
Chelsea style transfer. Cue 5 loans and a sale for a €10m profit in three seasons' time.

I'm not sure if it's just me but from the YT video I see absolutely nothing there.
With Kone, I saw quite a lot of potential.
I do like that we are looking into more signings from Africa - so much potential there, it's crazy and it's nice to see the club trying to be a bit more innovative in this regard.

Weird link, on that pitch you can’t really judge anything.
Can yaba daba doo it on a wet Tuesday night?
Killer player!
feck me 
Absolute shit. No chance
Absolute shit. No chanceWouldn't take much notice of the very limited video footage on show. Can't remember who it was but a poster on here mentioned this lad alongside Kone both really impressing at the u20's world cup. Probably another Vivell buy. At the very least we will make a profit if he signs.
Have you seen him play?
Why are they playing on my lawn?
I can see why you haven't bothered mowing mate that things a health hazard.
Probably the most underwhelming YouTube video ever.
Different player
Not as comical as rating players based on youtube, fifa or FM
Obviously never seen him play.
If he's the best DM/CM playing in Mali he might actually be good enough to be a cheap backup to Ugarte (Doucoure at Palace, Bissouma, Haidara at Leipzig and Camara who left Monaco for Saudi all are, even if none improve our starting XI) and hopefully we'd buy an expensive CM to rotate with Mainoo.
We probably can't buy a top striker, LWB, CM, DM, #10/RWB (depends where Amad plays) and CB, so an attempt at a bargain at 1 or 2 spots makes sense, and the 2nd midfielder we need is maybe the most logical place to try to find a steal, I doubt we'll do that at ST, CM or CB, though sometimes you can convert someone to wingback and get good production because so few teams play them.
If he's not good enough to crack the top 5 or 6 Malian DM/CMs, then yeah he's not good enough even for a couple of million.
Any Malians on here?

Seems unlikely
As someone who watches a lot of Malian football, I'm not convinced.
