Yann M'Vila

[Waterfall 893]

Bullshit. British press is useless.

They are reporting today that Pastores is on the verge of joining PSG, when everybody in this forum knows it since days ago...now they are reporting bulshit after bullshit. Hulk, Falcao, Coentrao would follow VB...and now every player is a Essien replacement.

tbf it's not just British media that likes to make shit up.

I actually heard this story has been spread through the grapevine and actually originated in Brazil...

They are reports, because yesterday Pastore on own official website reported it

With Essien's decline in the last few years we have been struggling to dominate midfield and consequently games like we use to.

We IMO miss some brute who will take the bull by the horns and dominate that midfield battle, which is what this guy does and he will be 22 in the summer.

Is he worth taking a punt on?

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

Would love to! I think he'll go to Arsenal though.

He's going to Arsenal.

Sorry i didn't know i looked back a few pages and could not find it.

I don't follow French football a lot, but from what I've seen he is good. Would really fit well into 4-2-3-1 we are probably going to play cuz of Mata. Looks Arsenal bound though...but people said that once for tiny epic beardman from Spain I mentioned above.

No probs, that's why I have that purple title under JT's duckface

Don't go through pages next time though, just use the search, it took me a couple of secs to find it.

He's definitely overrated. Some may say that it's his 3rd successive season at 50+ games played... But after all those games we didn't manage to find where he's the best. He's pretty average to regain the ball and his passing game contains a lot of waste. Plus, he's unable to put the right tempo or rythm to the play. When his team has to keep the ball he tries a 60 yard diagonal etc... His runs are poor too, useless ones or ones leaving his defense exposed

He's not a DM, not a central midfielder, not a box-to-box. At the end of the day he's average in many domains, Rennes became dependent on his form and due to his poor 2nd part of the season, Rennes did one more time crash before the end of the season.

I must admit I did like what he did one or two years ago because I though then there was a huge potential to fulfill. Now it seems he's just an average player, with 19 year old weaknesses at 22. I'm afraid France is likely to start with him in the midfield this summer...

Not to mention that he is a criminal.

I always love your posts seb. Every single one is gold.

I think he is actualy pretty good, but needs a better team because Rennes is just...

Thanks. :blue scalf: Yeah, he even admitted that if he didn't become a pro footballer he'd end up in jail. He's 22, has already 2 kids. He has several brawls on his account and last year his watch has been stoled by hookers in a hotel.

Something surprising is that he still has a good mediatic image in France, I mean not only people see him as a fantastic player (and pick him as 1st on the game sheet...) but no one seems to care about his off-pitch scandals

Rennes has the best academy in France for 10 years, nearly all the current players comes from the youth academy. They have a young squad, a quite good 11 but not many susbstitutes who are average anyway. They don't have a striker for years, someone to put the ball in the back of the net. And they target Champions League football for almost 10 years and end every year 4th, 5th or 6th

We can wait a little bit to make a final judgment on M'Vila, if he manages to find a club where he'd have a precise role and where he wont play every game, maybe we would see something else than these feelings that he lacks lucidity or that he's just eventually average

[Spike 12,049]

If he gets into that much trouble in Rennes, he is going to die in London.

[incometax 116]

id bet my life, house and diablo 3 key that he is off to arsenal.

He should be an Arsenal player soon enough. Apparently he was just waiting for them to confirm UCL qualification for next season.

ive just seen that Man city are stepping up interest for him
