oldtype Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The stats do tell you that his conversion rate and shot accuracy is surprisingly impressive, on par with the top goalscorers in Europe. He just doesn't score that much because he's on a team where he's not a full-time starter and doesn't get the ball as much when he's on the pitch. It remains questionable of course whether he can maintain that rate over more minutes, but I can see why scouts would be impressed. Also worth noting that his stats have improved every year for the past five. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Seems explosive in terms of speed and jumping. I'm happy with this as we are adding bodies finally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the elite athleticism is what's impressing me so far. Been so long since we've had a striker that isn't small/weak/slow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John P Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 For those of you criticising his record, the same could have been said of Diego Costa a couple of years ago and Craig Bellamy when we signed him. Bellamy didn't score many goals for us but what he added to the team was immense. If Riviere has pace and power then he will add a hell of a lot more to the side than Cisse and Shola did last season. If (and I know it's a big if) we can get another striker in then we will hopefully have De Jong, Cabella, Riviere and another who are all capable of chipping in with a few goals. I would add Hatem to that list but it seems pretty unlikely given the situation with The King, which is such a shame when you think of what he could do with some of these attacking players we're bringing in at the moment.

For sure.. Hatem has to be replaced if we are going to sell him though. Coventry fans weren't particularly partial to Bellars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Bellamy calls Bobby the best manager he ever worked with and the one who improved his game the most in his book. High praise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Would be interesting if player stats were divided into stats under each manager they worked with. Would reflect the ability of the manager to get performances out of certain players, and also the style of play where the player fits in best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
