26 | Savinho - 2024/25

[Chak19]

Hopefully just a precaution with him coming off, he looks like a star in the making.

 

[super_city_si]

Looked brilliant. Hope it’s nothing and just a precaution.

 

[Crooked_rain]

Was impressed with him.

Had that poodle on toast a few times

He is a top talent. I watch regularly La Liga and he was sensational. He is Mahrez, plus the speed.
But, is knee is fine? I hope I am wrong, but reminds me the Timber's injury of last year (ACL). Any update?

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

Very encouraging, bar a few loose passes.

I like to think that the medic using the cold spray means it was just a knock.

 

[il_Cecchino]

A better Mahrez. His hustle on defense and his extra speed makes him a better Mahrez.

Granted, he doesn't have Mahrrz's God-tier ball control and most likely not his shooting. But everything else I think he might just be better.

He is faster than Mahrez. And for a winger this is a great plus.

 

[Trojan1962]

Exciting to watch with him and jezzer gives us the speed we’ve lacked

 

[trueblue1972]

It's hard but I'd say Savinho was just more impactful last season for Girona. He got 9 goals and 10 assists. I just think he didn't get as much hype as he doesn't play for the big 2

He's the makings of a quality player for sure , however, Yamal is very, very special, imho !

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

A better Mahrez.

Relaxxxxx... I liked what I saw, too, but Mahrez is a Premier League legend.

 

[chesterbells]

Doesn’t look like he’s much used to playing on the ‘wrong wing’ but really enjoyed watching him today.

 

[doobyedoobye]

We finally have an abundance of wide players who can beat a man

 

[Phil1]

Ooh, we’ve got a good’un.

 

[skillman]

Felt like I was watching Mahrez. What a player. What a bargain.

(hope he’s OK..?)

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Fire!

 

[WallyA]

He works hard too!

I found it funny when people said he would be found out in the Prem because he came from La Liga.

 

[Withnail]

Very impressive, looks a real baller, any update on his injury?

 

[jimharri]

Didn't bother with any of the post match stuff. Micah and Sturridge? No, thanks. Any word from the bald frau Pep about Sav?

 

[OB1]

Just looking forward to seeing more of him.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Very encouraging 45. Hopefully its a knock and not a muscular injury, didn't really see what he did but felt like he pulled up so its a little concerning.

Didn't expect him to start in truth as I didn't think he would be in tune with the team yet, that showed at times when he beat his man and didn't instinctively know what to do and ended up dawdling and wasting the opportunity he had created but that's clearly going to come the more he trains and once it does, we've got a gem. Got some serious talent on the wings this season, whoever starts will certainly have to earn it and produce otherwise there's somebody else waiting to step in.

 

[Barcon]

That’s one slick Brazilian.
