Sylvain Marveaux - arrested

[NewJerseyMag]

The Mags view is a little extreme but lets face it he just isn't good enough.

 

"Good enough" includes a desire to succeed: sadly lacking.

 

[The College Dropout]

He needs to do better no doubt but I know there's a class player there.

[alexf]

He'll be fine. Just not an out an out winger and likely not going to start all the time.

[Hanshithispantz]

He'll be fine. Just not an out an out winger and likely not going to start all the time.

This, I think he's an excellent wildcard for us to play. I'd play him tomorrow in the hole with 2 of Anita, Cabaye and Sissoko behind.

[TRon]

The dilemma for us is that the good players don't tackle hard enough, but the hard tacklers aren't good enough. You get what you pay for in the end I suppose.

[Ronaldo]

I think ability on the ball and off the ball would be a fairer way to present that statement.

[Disco]

In a decent, balanced, committed squad he'd be sidelined due to his weaknesses. Unfortunately we don't have one of them so because he can pick a pass & make a chance he should be a starter because he's the only one we've got.

[Guest bimpy474]

Marveaux is always too deep and played out of position, well positions he's not best suited to. Get him where Haris was the other night and it would be interesting to see. Not going to happen mind.

What statement?

 

 

[Nordstrom]

Can't say I was overly impressed with his performance. While he held up the ball fairly well, his movement off the ball was static and he didn't try to get into spaces to pick up the ball.

 

I noticed he improved in the first half but I'm reconsidering whether he's worth having in our starting eleven.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I like him but he is not worth a place at the moment really. He isn't effective wide and we now have more complimentary options central. Good player to have to bring on though.

[healthyaddiction]

Just not a winger.  I think he is a useful squad player and if we want a creative player in the hole he's our best option but out wide we really need to sign someone if we're playing 4-4-2 or possibly even give Sammy a chance if we don't sign anyone.

[Newcastle Fan]

Say what you want about him but i'd have him over Jonas any day of the week.

[Mick]

He played well and is one of the reasons that we played a good passing game and won. He's not a winger but he's better than Jonas who he's replacing.

[Tachikoma]

Still think there's a place for him if we decided to play any formation that utilised a player just behind the strikers/forwards. What bimpy said.

[Andy]

Not sure about him. Technically he's sound, but he never really looks like he wants to step up and influence the game. If he played with more energy he could be a great player.

[KDT]

He's better in the middle or cutting in on his left, he's not an out and out winger.

[Taylor Swift]

It's good to have him as an option. I don't think it's realistic to expect squad players to be world beaters every match. We have other players that we rely on for special moments every match but he'll be an asset throughout the season, that's something I'm sure of. He'll get assists and goals and win us points, not consistently but good enough for a squad player.

[Gallowgate Toon]

Hard to say with him really, I'd like to have seen him play with Remy on the pitch.

[Lotus]

Lacks intensity.

[Guest Recoba]

Emre MK II. Bags of ability but something missing.

Emre influenced the game more than this bloke tbh.

[Barnes23]

He played well and is one of the reasons that we played a good passing game and won.

 

[Guest neesy111]

Sad to say, he's not good enough for this level if he's playing on the wing.

[Mick]

Sad to say, he's not good enough for this level if he's playing on the wing.

 

Or in goal.
