Can someone more knowledgeable than me, reassure me that he's actually decent at football as I currently have this feeling in my water that he's going to be a bit shite. Please..someone..anyone, spit some stats at me. Has had 3 very average seasons at a below average side in Montpellier. 26 goals and 6 assists in Ligue 1 in about 100 starts being used as a left winger and second striker. Will not be our answer if and when we return to the premier league but will comfortably be our best winger (our only winger😂) Would expect 15-20 goal contributions from him if he played in 40+ games in this league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping he’s announced soon. Statistically, there's probably a lad similar in the National League 🤣 and there's the big difference, it's where you achieved the stats that counts. At 25yrs this bloke seems to have been round the block in three different countries, so is well exposed yet is still hardly setting the world alight. Is one year in the Championship, if we were really fortunate to get promoted, make him suitable for the Premiership? If Arsenal and Juventus couldn't tease the talent out of him, why would we? Sorry to be a pessimist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri is 26 and people are saying he’s already past his peak due to the amount of football he’s played. I feel like Mavididi’s record in Ligue 1 has shown he’s got the potential for what we need 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I know it means very little but he has pace, takes on a man, can go to byline or cut in, some decent finishing there too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be a pessimist. Ligue 1 is a significantly stronger league than the Championship. He’s a proven performer at level higher than we are at. IF we go up he MIGHT end up as a squad player, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Edited 24 July 2023 by FoxesWalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be a pessimist. I understand your concern, but what I'm trying to remind myself is that we're not just signing players—we're (re)building a team. And a team can be more than the sum of its parts. Maresca and Glover might feel Mavididi is one of those 'parts' we need to get the team to click. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
