Saw a tweet by Ted Knutson (guy who worked as 'head of player analytics' at Brentford) where he showed a chart explaining how Riviere was consistently seen as a good talent from the age of 20, and his stats suggested he would become a good player, but it just didn't work out. It's obvious that he's been a massive failure here, but it seems he was rated by certain people who know their stuff when he was younger.

From the Chron. Surely not:

 

Meanwhile, Riviere has been linked with a move to Osmanlispor with a £5million fee mooted for his services.

 

We would be lucky to even get 5p for him.

Wouldn't be surprising, supposedly our transfer targets were being selected using a subscription to analytics software, with Carr rubber stamping the conclusions.

Obviously it's a massive part of the game but if he could sort out his finishing and composure he'd be a decent striker. His movement has never been in question and he's got reasonable pace but in front of goal his arse falls out. Hopefully he can resurrect his career somewhere else, ideally somewhere where he gets more time on the ball.

 

It was a gamble that didn't pay off on our part. Win some, lose some.

He's 27 and managed to not score in 17 appearances last season. He isn't going to sort out his finishing like :lol:

Yeah, i think he's a lost cause. Hopefully he'll be someone else's problem before long

Yeah agree, he just needs a lower standard of football and to be under less pressure to perform.

5mil for Rivière would be the best deal since we swindled Crystal Palace into paying us for Pardew.

:lol: Somewhere right now there's a guy with a room filled with bricks of cocaine he can't move and we got 40 million for Riv, Pardew and Moose.
