Sylvain Marveaux - arrested

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.

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.

He wasn't on the field of play when we actually looked good and battered them though.

 

He's neat and tidy but not quick enough, strong enough or decisive enough for the PL.

He looked good when we played in Europe where the pace is slower though.

The goal was down to Ben Arfa and nobody else so I'm not holding that against him.  We played well for most of the game, we had more movement up front when Shola went off.

It was an improved performance from us from the first whistle, and Marveaux not being on the pitch for the final 15 minutes is coincidental. The introduction of Remy/absence of Shola and the fact our formation was close to a 4-2-4 had much more to do with us battering them at the end. 

 

As for his attributes, he's got great acceleration over shorter distances and uses the ball more intelligently than a lot of our players. His decision making is probably better than HBA's, tbh. Not being strong enough is a lazy criticism,too- I suppose HBA, Coutinho, Silva et al aren't up to the PL either?

Remy's crossfield ball for the assist was canny as well mind.

 

We always look better when Sholas not on the field to be fair.

 

marveaux wasn't there either when we looked good and that was when we had Gouffran running at people, Cabaye orchestrating things in midfield and Remy linking well with everyone.

Emre MK II. Bags of ability but something missing.

 

Emre influenced the game more than this bloke tbh.

 

Aye proper harsh on Emre.. he had tons of fucking fight and a decent shot, loved a tackle. Emre was just always fucking injured. Game changer when he played. Could actually attack and dribble through the middle of the park too which we lack. A fit Emre in this team would be wank worthy.

 

That said..

 

        Sissoko      Cabaye

 

Ben-Arfa    Marveaux  Remy

 

                Cisse

 

 

Would be fun to watch for home games.

He's in the team to be an attacker - a creator. He needs to look to make an impact where it matters. Consistently.

 

Agreed but having said that it will make it a lot easier for our midfield to create chances when the forwards are actually showing for the ball and forcing defenses backwards.

Agreed. Cisse and Shola are the stuff midfielders have nightmares about. Don't drop deep. Rarely move wide. Can't hold it up for shit.

He was one of our better players in the first half I thought. He's not as weak on the ball as some like to portray him here. He is very good at keeping possession of the ball under pressure.

Thought he hid... Was his big chance to stake a claim yesterday but didn't take it... Willing him to do well but does he have the hunger for the challenge...

Its probably only Ben Arfa who isnt afraid of the ball no matter how low confidence the squad has. With the win against Fulham, i think most players will step up some levels now. Marveaux is one of the golden boots in this squad and needs to be played properly, just like Ben Arfa. Marveaux has the split vision for a pass and we dont have many of these. Thats why he must be given some more chances.
