I can never understand a word he's saying.

I had to turn the bass down on my radio when he was interviewed

Danny N'Guessan is built like a victorian body builder. What a chest.

I searched for 'victorian bodybuilder' to get a picture, but now I just have to scrub my browser. Eww.

Was told by a Millwall fan that he was lazy and they were glad to be shot of him - don't think that could be further from the truth from what we've seen of him. He's impressed in nearly every game I've seen him in, seems to combine well with Ranger as well. With a full squad to pick from someone will be unlucky to miss out with the options we have now in the midfield/striking areas.

[DarloSTFC84]

It helps, in part, to not being abused...racially, or otherwise by his home fans every week!

[sonicyouth]

I can understand why people would look at him and think that he's lazy, same with Ranger. Both are very languid in their demeanor off the ball at times. I've been hugely impressed with both after initial skepticism.

[DarloSTFC84]

Also, DNG has replaced Ranger a few times as a like for like subsitution...he's come on and scored playing in that position...(I think he did so against Wolves), so IF Ranger isn't with us come the end of January....we seem to have a more than capable replacement.

Keeping them both would be excellent though.

The thing that's impressed me most, or maybe that should be surprised me most, with Ranger, is that he's supposedly got a bad attitude, yet he works hard and I've never once seen him complain about being tackled or being thrown around by a centre half. He comes across as a proper professional and just gets up and carrys on without so much as a peep.

N'Guessan's movement off the ball is often limited, particularly when he was being played wide. Particularly compared to Byrne, he hardly came off the line to make space for his full-back.

I noticed that he doesn't really celebrate his goals either, either he's been told  by the club to keep his head down and maintain a low profile or he's used his head as something other than a tattoo canvas and has taken it upon himself to keep himself out of trouble on and off the pitch.

I'm hoping the latter...he did say in his statement on the O/S when signing that he just wants to get his head down, score goals and get his career back on track.

Now, I'm not so naive that I believe everything a footballer says....but, I would like to think that the board have stated that this WILL be the case or he's out the door...and he's actually stuck to it!

One of the first to applaud the fans nearly every game as well. If you had no knowledge of his previous reputation and just judged him on a Saturday afternoon, you'd think he was a model pro.

Doesn't mean he's not a tool as a person, but certainly doesn't seem to show it on the pitch.

[Paolo69]

Our Nile is definitely an interesting character. For someone who's appeared to live most of his life so far with very little discipline off the pitch, he's probably been our most disciplined player on it. Not all strikers can play the lone forward role (yes i know he gets plenty of support) especially as well as he does.

As yet another hairy arsed centre half tries to wind him up or wrestles him to the ground I keep waiting for the day he turns round and clocks one of them with a right hook. So far nothing, just gets up and gets on with it. Fair play to the guy!

[Empathy Sloth]

Has he even been booked yet?
