TRon Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 As others say, impossible to judge him based on playing under Pardew. He's ploughing a lonely furrow. Pardew wants some athletic big man up there that he can lump long balls to, and Riviere is the closest we have. Ayoze might well be a better footballer, but he's be even worse under our system than Riviere as he's too small and would still have to suffer getting footballs with ice on them raining down from the clouds. Yet Perez has still done more in our shirt than Riviere. But Perez has come on during the last 20 mins usually when the game is a lot more open and we are pushing forward more.

Leazes1986 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 What hope does he have at the minute? He's isolated and getting shit floated passes lumped up to him. I feel sorry for him at the minute, he's got no hope in this system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 There's no doubt he's getting shit service, but he's offering virtually nothing. Ba and Remy also got shit service but still managed to create things for themselves - might be harsh to compare him to them but as things stand he's our main man up front, and if that doesn't change in the next 24 hours or so we're utterly fucked. Unless somehow Cisse comes back and remembers where the goal is... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Written off in terms of can score 20 goals per season? Yes. The vast majority of players in the league won't score 20 goals per season. Anyone thinking Riviere could do that is mental.

Dokko Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 20 goals? From what I've seen he'll not hit double figures in all comps, well be lucky to see 5 league goals from him unless we bag a new manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 To be fair, it has been 5 total matches in a team that is actually collapsing upon itself. I know from watching his career, that he is nothing more than average, but it is hard to criticise the new boys when they've debuted less than a month ago and are already in the midst of a crisis.
