6M euros, you can take punts at that price. 
 

Finnegan’s analysis is great to see. In terms of the eye test he’s really rapid. Pep used wingers that were fast and skilful in terms of being able to beat a man one on one, and pose some kind of goal threat. Guardiola also managed to get Sterling to score tons of goals despite being a pretty poor finisher. The system creates chances, if we get a player with right characteristics, they should do alright. 
 

Based on that I’ll wait till game 5 till I write him off completely and start booing him. 

Good job Pep is not our manager then 😂

From Charlton to Juventus? Wasn't expecting that career move. Tbh it's hard to get impressed by either his style of play and stats.

Pep doesn't play with wingers now. He uses Grealish and Bernardo Silva as "wide players".

...In the two seasons that Tete has been out of Ukraine he's played almost identical number of 90 minutes as Mavididi and has 0.48 goals per game to Mavididi's 0.3 and 0.21 assists per game to Mavididi's 0.13.....

But Mahrez no one had ever heard of....

 

Vardys figures were good, but in non league

 

Amartey looked like he would be a good signing

 

Youri Tielemans was a bit trash before he came here

 

Albrighton wasn't good enough for the premier league

 

Ayoze Perez was one of Newcastle's stand out performers

 

Fuchs arrived as a deadball specialist

 

Point is, you never really know what you're going to get when any transfer goes through. There are numerous different, human factors to squeeze into the equation. 

 

This lads figures could be good or could be bad but I don't, and I suspect you don't know either, the style of Montpelier's play, what the manager asks of him, how well he gets in with his team mates, generally how happy he is in his surroundings etc etc etc

 

Some work out, some don't. For £6m I don't see this as much of a risk. Our only problem is if we don't bring someone else in, if he's coming as a starter and then he's trash, we're in a pickle as we've no one to replace him

I think you just unraveled @Saxondale’s whole story! Hahah 

It’s quite possible he was called up by England, not France. I also believe he’s eligible for both. Wasn’t he France U21?

Crikey I only responded to “why the reluctance”

spoke to a gooner about him. He said he looked great coming through their academy. Said he’s absolutely rapid and has decent all round technique. 
 

I think in the championship he could be a decent player. Said he’s a strong runner too, so hopefully he can drag us up the pitch, when we need it.

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. 

 

Christiano Ronaldo does more effective defensive work than Barnes.

€6M for the new Leicester fan scape goat next season 😂

 

Honestly though calling it now, he will be top target of the whinge brigade next season 😂

Very likely, but because he’s a little bit shit. If he comes you will see.

Great point TBF! They need to be intelligent, not just speed merchants.
