26 | Savinho - 2025/26

[WallyA]

He's absolutely rapid, isn't he? Think Pep needs to set us up a little differently to get the best out of him, he's not a player who does his best work recycling possession, he needs space to run into.

I think giving him more access to central zones like Doku gets is better for him, and Bobb tbh.

Who thought he was scoring when he went through ?

Who thought he was scoring when he went through ?

Nope, not me. It was a devastating run but he raheem sterling mark 2 when it comes to one against one. I hope this gives him confidence and his sponge feet disappear

 

[SambaStyle]

He's 21.

Rodrygo is 24
Vini Jr 25

At 20, both Rodrygo and Vini weren't considered 'that good'.

 

[Earlyriser]

Who thought he was scoring when he went through ?

I was hoping he was going to chip him. If it had gone in it might have done wonders for his confidence... there again if he had missed....

 

[OldhamBlue94]

Great run at the end to win the penalty, will get an assist as well I think?

 

[Phil1]

Who thought he was scoring when he went through ?

I got more confident the closer he got to the 18 yard box without tripping over his laces.

2 great cameos in a week.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

He did well in Madrid and assisted for today's penalty

Little acorns and all that.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Little acorns and all that.

Probably the best way to look at it. A proper test is the mid week game. He really needs to deliver from the start of a game.

I've not enjoyed him this season at all and almost because of that the passion in my "Go on sav ..go on sav ...go on sav!!" was more than normal...(which is usually quite loud anyway.).

Should do him the world of good.

Cant believe he went to his right foot. Was a fantastic run but he wasn’t scoring.

Yep he's someone who needs to be looking forward rather than back.

 

[tackeds]

Well done lad, put it to bed. Another good cameo

 

[Tyg3r]

All of his teammates congratulating him after the penalty... (ironic)

 

[AliBobbyJ]

Yes, a confident player would have scored either with a chip or taken it round the keeper and knocked it in. Or did he lack the confidence to do either thing and leave his foot there to get the penalty? Only he knows for sure.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

With Doku hurt and Marmoush going to AFCON, Savinho has become really important. Hopefully he rises up to the challenge!

 

[NOREX]

Last season Doky was awesome only coming on as a sub after 70 minutes. Gave him the confidence to grow into what he is now.

Yesterday, that run was awesome. Didn't realize quite how fast he was. Can be like Doku last season, that pace against tired legs is going to cause problems.

 

[WestGorton]

Great run. I was there. Well done lad.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Who thought he was scoring when he went through ?

Had he not been fouled by the keeper I'm confident he slots it neatly into the bottom corner.
