I am really excited by Mavididi he is one player capable of producing moments of magic, yes he sometimes can be frustrating, make poor decisions but like the rest of the squad when it clicks he can be unplayable, he is not on the level of Mahrez but he has similar attributes and there is no reason he cannot be similar to Knockaert in his ability to bully championship defences.  I agree and understand his frustration yesterday because at times he was in great positions and the final ball was poor and the opportunity was missed, but I would say he is one player who is totally committed to being here, his reaction everytime we score is that of a player who has already taken the club to his heart.

He's definitely one to watch and keep faith with, even if he starts a game quietly, he eventually will flourish. Seems quite mentally resilient because like you say at times he would get frustrated but his persistence is a good quality in him. He won't give up and he'll keep going. Even the skills and confidence right at the end to not potentially gift possession away but keep it in the corner and buy a few fouls and time.

 

I think he'll continue to flourish in this system and the more polished it becomes the more benefit he will have playing in it and us watching him in it.

...you could say the same for Faes, who when he came in,was celebrating when making blocks or making a great tackle!!!

  Pretty much an exhibitionist and very much attention seeking. 

 He (Mavididi) needs to be working on his decision making and his supply to the forward and supporting midfielders. If there is one thing that tends to be the case is that they will continue to do the same thing over and over again. Someone needs to have a word, the thing with Manchester City is that they go out and buy players who can already do what they want them to do. Coaching and the players self awareness of what is needed is pretty important due to where we are.

How do you know, you don't know the bloke.

 

Sweeping statement about someone you have never met.

Felt like on several occasions yesterday he was in acres of space to be played in behind, only for KDH to either not see him, or his first touch with his left foot took him inside and back infield. If he had opened his body and allowed the ball to roll across him he could have just rolled Mavididi in.

 

As for Mavididi, he’s obviously very talented, but there’s a reason he was available for £7 million to a team in the Championship, he’ll be inconsistent.

I noticed it too, and in the Coventry game. Hopefully KDH can work on his link up with Mavididi but it does appear to be one of his weaknesses.

 

Mavididi is a decent purchase. As you say inconsistent, and he does lack a bit of pace, but will deliver some trickery and go past his marker to create chances.

I think he’s a typical upper championship level winger from what I’ve seen. Exciting and got great feet but often lacks quality in the final third. 

 

I agree with this. Sort of Knockaert level.

Scored a goal, got an assist, we don’t score the equaliser against Cov without him. So basically 3 goal contributions in 3 games. As the other post says probably gained us 4 points.  
 

Not sure what else you want?

We worked some nice openings only for it to break down just before the final ball. You’d like to think that if we have noticed then so has Enzo, if KDH is made aware of it then hopefully going forwards he has a glance over his shoulder to see if it’s on.

Pretty much sums up my early thoughts on him.


I don’t think we’ve unearthed a gem, that will be sold for big money in a few years anyway. Just a steady at this level kind of player.

 

Happy to be proven wrong though!
