26 | Savinho - 2024/25

Think he was good today. We shouldn’t have taken him off. Bernardo offers no threat on the flanks and to all the stick that Doku gets I think we’ve missed him heavily.
 
He has been fine considering the step up to the Pl.

With a bit more composure, and a goal to add, he will no doubt be ok, and push on.
 
Concerned so much with getting his first goal it's impacting his whole game
My thoughts exactly. The more desperate he becomes to score his first goal the more he could make the wrong decisions between shoot and pass. Once he does get his goal then perhaps he might be more like KdB and strive to be the "assist king".
 
i feel like all our wingers are good but can't finish. It's a terrible situation lol.

I was always critical of the likes of Sterling and Mahrez for their overall play. I could never be critical of their G/A contribution. I look at the like of Doku and Silvinho and think that for the most part, I like what they do. However, there’s no escaping the fact that they simply don’t deliver enough. I think Silvinho has more talent than Sterling ever had but I’d snap your hand off for Sterlings goals right now.

I wouldn't compare Mahrez in that term, because except 19/20, his overall play like: first touch, correct passes, loosing the ball was always OK and in terms of statistics he was scoring a lot as well.

Sane / Sterling had these issues more, cause both of them lacked "first touch" and they weren't as convincing with the ball like Doku and Savinho are.

But in terms of statistics Sane and Sterling were way better.

Right now, when we lack Rodri and loosing ball is something we don't want, Doku/Savinho are vital, but we also need players like Kev and Phil to start scoring the goals.

Also since like 2022/23 when Pep invented that system

Bernie--John----Rodri---Grealish
----------KDB-----Gundo------------
-------------Haaland-----------------

Wingers are more important in terms of build-up and possession, while N8-s are important in terms of goals and assists. Since then our N8-s (Gundo, KDB, Foden, Alvarez) have scored more than our wingers Grealish, Doku, Mahrez, Savinho, Bernardo...

Before it was like: wingers were providing more goals and assists in overall, n8-s were concentrating more on build-up and possession. Sane/Sterling/Mahrez/Foden scoring & assisting more than KDB, Gundo and Bernie
 
Early glimpses looked like a young mahrez
At the minute he is more like a martin petrov

Good on the ball but end product is lacking in the main.

bedding in season so won't be over critical, but he needs to start taking chances better, the 2 he shot wide yesterday would be going in at girona, a goal will bring confidence and hopefully a better goals return follows
