Sylvain Marveaux - arrested


Recommended Posts

Some of the comments man :anguish:

 

intless article - he is and was a lightweight who showed nothing much.

 

He is also playing in a less intense league - can't cope with the PL.

 

Cash in - he has had plenty of chances.

 

Mark # Marveaux had plenty of chances when he was hear. He did not put in the effort, which was his main problem. He was a sulky type of player and never seemed to want tobe at the club in the first place.

 

 

 

:lol: Cliche tastic.

Is Sylvain Marveaux the latest piece of wishful thinking

Wednesday 22nd October 2014 by Dean Wilkins

 

The current mood appears to be to take any positive and turn it into something that is ridiculously optmistic, the latest case apparently Sylvain Marveaux.

 

We have seen Gabriel Obertan hailed as like a new signing after supposedly turning the corner, this based on an OK display at Swansea and a match winning performance in a clash of two poor teams against Leicester.

 

Sammy Ameobi has also been touted as having now shown what he can do, these claims sparked by one decent cross against Swansea.

 

Now this morning I have read about Sylvain Marveaux doing really well in France and what a bonus he could be if he comes back to Newcastle in the summer.

 

A quick check over the Channel and the facts tell you something else.

 

Marveaux’ on-loan club Guigamp have lost seven of their first ten Ligue 1 matches and are second bottom of the League.

 

Marveaux has contributed no league goals but he has got two assists.

 

The respected independent analysis site whoscored, that is used by much of the football industry and analyses every match that all major European clubs take part in, gives Marveaux an average rating of 6.36 out of 10 which puts him seventeenth best in the Guigamp squad. Not great going for a player who is easily the highest paid on their books.

 

The entire positive story that is being given on Marveaux appears to come from the match where he scored twice against PAOK in the Europa League a few weeks ago.

 

The old saying about absence making the heart grow fonder, seems in this instance to be ignorance hopefully making the fans more optimistic when it comes to journalists spinning stories.

I do agree with his main point like, I doubt anyone who doesn't watch a lot of French football has any real idea how he's doing. It's still absolutely ridiculous that he was completely cast out of the side while Shola was playing every week.

If that was heard correctly and he did say he misses Newcastle, I'm hopeful he'll return under a new manager and we could see him again next season.  Always looked a class player whenever he played for us imo.

 

He is on loan, right? :lol:

Who was that assist against, where he like threaded the eye of a needle? they showed it on MOTD a few times, it was crazy.

 

Stoke I think for a last minute Cisse winner

 

Pretty sure he played really well at the Emirates too before we crumbled to lose 7-3 or something like that

Pretty sure he led the team in assists despite only having a few runs in the team the Europa League season. Makes sense to never play him.

Aye. Looked a promising #10 in that season.

 

That was also the season Pardew played Sissoko incessantly as a #10 despite having 3 great games to a dozen bad ones. In that same Stoke game Marv got that great assist Sissoko was awful as #10 for the majority of the game. Ended up with a pass completion rate around 67%. Marv came on, skipped past players, knew the exact time to make the pass, kept it simple when needed then provided the killer ball when the opportunity presented itself.

 

Obviously benched next game, probably didn't even get on the pitch.

Been s**** in France it looks, unfortunately only ever saw glimpses of him being a decent player at SJP.

He's not exactly had much impact in France this season. In their absence some players have been elevated well above their actual worth in the minds of some fans. Having said that, considering who we've been playing in midfield this season he'd have probably played quite a few games for us.
