copunk Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 Let's at least give the lad a chance bloody hell 😂 Never seen him play in my life but it's positive the club aren't wasting any time 1
honeybradger Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 4 minutes ago, Finnegan said: Also worth noting is that Mavididi scores above the 70th percentile for tackles, blocks (88th), clearances and aerial duels vs other wingers. Harvey Barnes is terrible at these. His tackles, blocks and clearances in particular are woeful. Mavididi does a significant amount more defensive work than Barnes. This signing is making more and more sense by the minute. 1

kingpowerout Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 I wonder where his name came from, Glover or if Maresca knows of him, likely the former…
Scotch Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 I'm not convinced on him. Admittedly I know know next to nothing outside FM and what I've saw on YT which is less than nothing really but I'm very sceptical about those highlight compilations. I don't think I've seen one that ends before the final product quite so much. I won't judge him, and at the end of the day if the quoted price is accurate, it not a great risk so let's get behind the lad.
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 6m euros works out around £5.2m… very good business and someone who will serve the squad well if we get promoted even if he isn’t a starter. This signing has similar feeling to Lookman for me (which is positive). 1

I won't judge him, and at the end of the day if the quoted price is accurate, it not a great risk so let's get behind the lad. Statistically the end product is there. Looking at the three seasons he's been in Ligue 1 and comparing him to Barnes over the same time he has 0.32 goals per game vs 0.36 for Barnes. In that time Barnes created 0.12 expected goal assists per game vs Mavididi at 0.09. Mavididi makes slightly fewer key passes a game but has a much better take-on success percentage and does a LOT more defensively. We could do a lot, lot worse really. Bit harsh to question his end product because of the way some twelve year old has edited his Media Studies project to focus more on the dribbling. 1

Buzzell Posted 21 July 2023 Posted 21 July 2023 Is there a YouTube video on him which makes him look shit hot so I feel a little better about this?

I think I might be one of them, I was really underwhelmed when I first read his name and now I think it's the best bit of business we've done since Steve Walsh was wandering round a Normandy port town and thought he'd go watch a game of footy to pass the time. 1 4

I was probably being overly sceptical so it's made me much more optimistic. 1

If it makes you feel a bit more balanced, just remind yourself Bouba Soumaré won Ligue 1 and Rachid Ghezzal was one of Lyon's players of the year in 2016. 1
