Tooj 17 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 LaurensJulien (Julien Laurens) Riviere is strong physically, has pace with good runs at times. But he is not clinical enough & not strong mentally enough to be top striker 9:30 PM Jul 15th via Twitter for BlackBerry http://twitter.com/LaurensJulien/status/489145109435674625 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 71 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Blown The Sun money on a flop by the sounds of things. This signing has already been foreshadowed with comments about 'one to develop', nobody imagines he's the finished article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 With our record of developing players, spending £6m on one to develop mightn't be wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 With our record of developing players, spending £6m on one to develop mightn't be wise 6m for a striker is peanuts in the current market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonTheMag 4 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) This was posted by a very well regarded stats guy on twitter, Ted Knutson (@mixedknuts): A lot of people talking about how they think Riviere is overpriced, so I guess I need to explain myself. For starters, he's 24, so just now Entering his prime. He had the 4th best NPG90 rate in Ligue 1 last season at .51, and the same at Toulouse the year before. Shot rate between 2.5 to 3 for his career. He's also a capable passer from the front and has 3 ssns of 1.25 KP or above. He's clearly a good player Basically, it's odd to see a guy who scored at a rate RIGHT NEXT TO CAVANI in France last season, who is only 24, go for under £12-15M Riviere converted at a 19.6% rate last season. Zlatan? 12.4. Diabate? 16.9. Cavani? 14.9 Lacazette? 17.9 Edited July 15, 2014 by JonTheMag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 10 goals in 30 appearances last season, 19 of them starts not fantastic but not terrible. I've only seen him play twice tbh so going to reserve judgement until I see him more. Glad to see we're moving for strikers though, with the talk of him being one to develop (something we're not great at I know) it gives me hope we'll pick up another more experienced lad in all.

ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) If anybody was wondering what the major selling point was for us. Was it because he'll fit into the system we intend to play? Nope... It's because.... Basically, it's odd to see a guy who scored at a rate RIGHT NEXT TO CAVANI in France last season, who is only 24, go for under £12-15M Edited July 15, 2014 by ClubSpinDoctor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
