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

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.

Think I may need time away, finding myself agreeing with @Finnegan far too frequently  #cult

 

In fairness, 90% of our prior disagreements were you being a near frenzied apologist of Brendan Rodgers.

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.

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).

Somewhere out there @moore_94 is looking at the FoxesTalk thread creation screen where he's already typed out "Mavididi Signs!" and has his finger permanently spamming the F5 button watching the LCFC official Twitter. 

It's far more likely that he lives in the actual future.

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.

Cheers for the stats. I was probably being overly sceptical so it's made me much more optimistic.

Can someone please tell me the number of xFins in this thread?

 

* xFins are the FoxesTalk empirical measurement for “Expected Finnegans.” This is where a forum poster has an opinion but has their mind and / or previous set belief challenged by data and / or common sense. It is believed the term was derived and popularised during “The Great Patson Daka Debate” of summer 2023. 

My name is Scotch and I'm an XFin!

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.

Get it right! lol
