  1. Saivet, in the French Ligue 1, has scored two goals this season, creating 14 chances and no assists. Saivet has completed 784 passes this season with a pass accuracy of 81%, of which 91% were forward passes.

    :fwap:

     

    Watched the Liverpool v Bordeaux game from a couple of months ago and that's one of the things that stood out to me.  He was always putting himself in a position to receive the ball and then every time looking forward with his passes, most of the time very precise passes as well.  Also did plenty of shouting and organising from that defensive midfield position.  Had a brilliant game, even scored a cracking goal, but I've only seen that one game so :dontknow:

     

    Had a bot of a watch also. Liked his corners too. He's a set piece taker!

  2. Just been having a skim read through the comments on Bordeaux's Facebook page, none of their fans are particularly happy with Saivet coming to us - they highly rate him.

     

    Ooooh good sign. We need a link to a Bordeaux forum for more snooping.

     

    Fans insights are always valuable.

  3. Last time I heard of this guy was when he was the best youngster on Football Manager as a winger. He's a CM now? Anyone know anything about how he's done in midfield?

     

    Internet connection in Brazil is even worse than Nigeria. That's nuts!

  4. Are people saying he's another Gouffran purely because he's coming from Bordeaux? :lol:

     

    Of course, but i understand it tbh as none of us have a f***ing clue.

     

    I'm comparing him to Gouffran as we have no idea where he'll play and it's a very uninspiring signing which reeks of desperation and cluelessness, similar to Gouff's.

     

    Gouffran was a striker that could fill in as a wide forward ,and we all knew that when he signed.

     

    Of all the signings we made that January, he started the best.

     

    Pardew then proceeded to move him further and further back because the guy never complained, until he bizarrely started playing him at central midfield.

     

    It's one of the worst things I have ever witnessed in complete managerial cluelessness.

  5. Physically powerful, compact, quick, good with his feet and an adept header of the ball...While his passing accuracy and ball retention could have used some help, it was clear that Saivet had great potential to be the type of energetic midfield destroyer that had made Blaise Matuidi so highly regarded at Paris Saint-Germain.

     

    I don't know if that will translate to the premier, but that doesn't sound quite so horrendous despite him not being a six footer.

     

    Sounds incredible. If his energy is anything close to Matuidi's we have struck gold.

  6. Can't believe we could potentially have a new central midfield pairing. The current team looks so bad everywhere due to a non existing midfield, so this is really encouraging stuff. Just a half decent functioning pair alone would improve the team no end.
