Needs better players around him
But he's shown enough to suggest £4.5m is a steal

We had what is now the “Serie A midfielder of the year” right under our nose and we deemed him not good enough, instead we now trawl Europe taking punts on various lower level players. It’s all just a bit strange
To be fair I don't think that's accurate. Plenty in real like and on here have been complaining we sign no players from the league and have a lack of Rangers supporters in the team for years.Not many were bemoaning not going for Lewis Ferguson. Is it not fair to so that moving to Italy is what's made him.
A steal? O’Reily and Hatate cost a fraction of that and Diomande wouldn’t get near their midfield.
There been noone doing that job for a while so why not? Diomande has been complaining to Lundstram in several games that Lundstram is slowing things down and not threading forward passes. Only tempo Lundstram has been dictating is a slow, ponderous, shite oneWho is the control the tempo, thread the forward pass mid amongst those three? Running and pressing are essential but so is a football brain. Not to derail the thread totally but Raskin has no positional sense and that is why PC has him as a last resort pick even with others clearly plodding.
Disagree, Oriley is a good player in fairness. Hatate done f all yesterday due to Dio.Hatate and O’Reily cost nowhere near that and are streets ahead.
Anyone that thinks Tilman isn’t a player should take up another sport.For the reported £4.5mil then he’s absolutely not the answer. In the 2 old firm games he’s played he’s not put a glove on Celtic. Much like tilman, flatters to deceive when it really matters domestically
disagree. 50k at Ibrox screaming at his every mistake and telling he was Aberdeen level would have taken his game a level above where it is now.Not many were bemoaning not going for Lewis Ferguson. Is it not fair to so that moving to Italy is what's made him.
You trust Koppen to get us better for less money in a transfer?Not for 4 mil he isn't. We need a whole new midfield and that's a ridiculous state to be in.
In his brief spell here he achieved nothing. He will go onto to have a good career agreed. Any suggestion, crochet?Anyone that thinks Tilman isn’t a player should take up another sport.
Scored 12 goals from midfield in a honking team as a 20 year oldIn his brief spell here he achieved nothing. He will go onto to have a good career agreed. Any suggestion, crochet?
Yes because he should have carried us to a treble himself etc.In his brief spell here he achieved nothing. He will go onto to have a good career agreed. Any suggestion, crochet?
Yes he is. Just needs a couple of decent midfielders to play with.Really not convinced. seems to make too many mistakes. Penalty was a bit dubious, but I didn't see a player on the same level as the Celtics midfield 3
I'm not seeing what others seem to with this lad, he'll be 23 in october hes not a young boy for 4.5 million we need better i'd say
I can’t believe folk are blaming others round about him. Here is a novel idea, he is dragging our midfield down, his passing stats the worst of any of our midfielders.
Aye fling him in the Real Madrid team and he’ll be the next coming of Modric
He was all over the place yesterday giving away needless fouls because he kept getting caught wrong side, his positional sense isn’t very good.
It's at the stage where they are now going to need to find at least 3 centre midfielders who can dominate a game for us. Diomande isn't that type and for 4 mil+ I think we could do better.You trust Koppen to get us better for less money in a transfer?
Or if we are getting a free, Lundstram type wages.
Your man has had statistically the worst performance of anyone in the entire league this season and you’re on here having a go at Dio.
He’s scored more goals than lundstram in half a season, clearly passes the ball forward which is why his passing statistics aren’t as good.
He’ll be a great player next season when he has a competent midfielder next to him.

Agree, I think half the problem is that when you don’t have a mobile and fit midfield you need at least 4 in there. It seems every time a midfielder receives a pass there is rarely a little 5 yd option to play a 1/2 off someone, it’s like they have to beat 2 to go forward or go back the way.It wasn’t a penalty. The Dhim hooked his foot around Dio’s leg IMHO.
Either way, I think Diomande shows some promise but wasn’t particularly good today. I think his positional awareness and tactical discipline needs a fair bit of work if he’s to be the success we want him to be.
Is it an option or an obligation we have with him?
I dont know if he is the answer but he is certainly one of the questions.A steal? O’Reily and Hatate cost a fraction of that and Diomande wouldn’t get near their midfield.
Hope to be proven wrong, however I think Kamara is/was better and a lot cheaper.It's at the stage where they are now going to need to find at least 3 centre midfielders who can dominate a game for us. Diomande isn't that type and for 4 mil+ I think we could do better.
