He should be more efficient. He should make better decisions. He doesn't score enough.

Blah

Blah

Blah.

Diaz has been so important this season. And more so from January. He's almost back to the player we signed mid season and making a similar impact now too.

Bloody great again today. No one in the squad has more desire than him!

Full backs are scared of him. He'll always drive us 30 yards up the pitch, because opposition defenders are scared to put a tackle in. Having that kind of player is great for swinging momentum when a little bit under the cosh.

The way he runs with the ball reminds me of peak Robben. Elite stuff

Scored a good goal but we could do with him being more efficient both in his decision making and his finishing.

Nitpicking at its absolute best.

Absolutely. 12 goals in all competitions this season.

I found him frustrating. That's not to say he didn't have a good game but you don't what you get from him. One moment, he score a great goal. In another, he's he's giving it away in dangerous areas or messing up a counter. I was just saying that we'll benefit in the run-in if he cuts out or reduces the looseness in his game.

He had a 92% pass completion rate today.

So you can only give it away by passing? I never knew

Really has been brilliant these past 2 months, scoring vital goals and full of running, long may it continue

someone who didn't know Mo's history would say exactly the same after seeing him today.

absolutely. he's a nightmare for any defence. maybe give him Thursday night off, at minimum on the bench and only use if necessary.

RedSince86 · « **Reply #4348 on:** March 31, 2024, 10:14:16 pm »

He's definitely looking back to his best again.

Absolute nightmare to mark, I'd rest him midweek and start him against United.

As has often been the case recently, he was the hardest of our forwards for the opposition to handle. Really enjoy watching him when he's on his game.

We could really do with a decent song or chant catching on for him. Think he's the type of player who would appreciate that. He fires the crowd up and gets fired up himself when there's a reaction. Not just about how he plays either, he's often interacting with the support, trying to get noise going when it's flat.

I got tired just looking at him running. He never stopped.

Fucking love this fella, he's a joy to watch, if you can't enjoy what he does, maybe time you took up knitting

newterp · « **Reply #4353 on:** April 1, 2024, 01:21:13 am »

His sprint late in the game on the breakaway was impressive. He was there for an easy goal if Salah had been able to make a pass.

Wolves’ Pedro Neto (36.86km/h) is not too far behind Ogbene, with Anthony Gordin (36.63km/h) completing the top three.

2. Pedro Neto (36.86km/h)

3. Anthony Gordon (36.68km/h)

4. Luis Diaz (36.42km/h)

5. Moussa Diaby (36.42km/h)

bit of a myth that he lost pace.
Seems to be really getting back into form now.
I do think he can reach another level with improved link up play & take on his man a bit more

SamLad · « **Reply #4355 on:** April 1, 2024, 02:21:58 pm »

Maybe just me, but does he seem to gain energy as the game goes on? The last few games he looks faster and more aggressive deep into the second half. Great to see.

Great assist for Macca's strike. Thought he was the pick of the attackers again always probing and some great link up play and dribbling against a sea of bodies. It really helped when Robbo was going on his outside against a tired team last 20.

SamLad · « **Reply #4358 on:** April 5, 2024, 12:15:06 am »

great again today. he can turn any defender into a block of stone, must be a nightmare to play against.

Yeah. He was very good. One of the few to inject pace into our game in the first half.
