2024/25 Jesper Lindstrom

Mavididi has played over 50 games for Leicester so should be very comfortable.
He's also 27 yrs old and played for some huge clubs in his career. He was up against a ring rusty Garner , would have been very different against a fully fit Coleman.

Lindstrom has played in 2 games for us and at 24 yrs old has a lot of developing to do .
He's got everything we have wanted in a wide forward for a long time. Pace , Carries the ball , great first touch and puts defenders on the back foot.
Once he comfortably settles this lad will be a very good signing for us.

Mavididi played very well and i was very impressed with him. But the point you make you can also make about Lindstrom hes not Harrison Armstrong breaking through, hes equally played in big leagues at big clubs and the in the Champions League.

Im not the Lindstrom executioner by any means mate, im perfectly happy to give the lad time and hope he grows into the league, i just didnt think he impacted the game yesterday or thus far in the way other people seem to, im very much open minded but on the fence about him. I want him to come good.
 
I thought he did ok yesterday and he is quite pacy. He was wasteful with his chances but at least he is getting into those positions.
I thought he could have stayed on for another 10 minutes as he had just skinned the full back to be denied a goal scoring assist by a last ditch interception by a defender.
Once he was replaced by Harrison the whole momentum shifted and against a visibly tiring Garner that’s when Mahavidi started to affect the Leicester attacks…up until then he had been quiet.
He’s miles better than Harrison and should be a starter from now on as the alternative has been shown to be ineffective over many games.

I'le be honest I'd never heard of Mavididi until recently , he hasn't pulled up many trees wherever he's been .
He did very well , but up against a true full back I don't think he's allowed to play that way like yesterday.
Thought he was pretty anonymous 1st half tbh.

But we'll see , I think Lindstrom has a really high ceiling once he settles in.

That's if Dyche allows it to happen.

Hope your right mate.

On Mavididi I have a memory of him at Arsenal but he was younger to be honest, he went off my radar until yesterday - he was very, very good i thought, be interesting to see how he does over a season.

Mavididi improved as the game went on, last twenty minutes he was causing a tiring James Garner more problems, Dyche admitted later that he played whilst ill. It's a shame then that Dyche never replaced Garner late on as he has now admitted he knew Garner was ill.

Funny how dyche picks and chooses when a player is "dyche fit", match ready or running on fumes during a match and whether they need to come off. He seems to make it up depending on nothing more than how much he likes the player.

Id agree with the assessment of Bernard and Billy - clearly good technical players, i dont agree as yet with Lindstrom that he deviates from the limits those players expierenced. Its not a hill i want to die on and im very fluid in my thinking, but im not at all convinced he is suited to this league, that he will impact on it and have an Everton career or wont ultimately be comparable in his Everton career to the two B's.

Im not writing the lad off - i hope im wrong, i didn't see what others are seeing in him yesterday - though he grew into the game somewhat and began to fade again, im on board with going him time and letting him adjust and very much hope my indicative reaction in wrong.

Ill be back to call out this post if it turns out to be BS in the future, its just my take as the crow flies! ;)

It’s a foolish person who talks in definites given the limited time he has had here or in the league.

None of my post can be proven to be BS because I haven’t made any prediction on whether or not he will be a success. All people are saying is he has shown some things to suggest he might be a useful player for us. Which most of the new signing have. N’Diaye has clearly had the best start. Tim has done some excellent things and looks like he has lots of ability but also looks a bit raw in some aspects of play. Mangala looks like a he is a good receiver/distributor but maybe not the most mobile. JL looks to have good pace and movt but poor end product. Without making stellar starts they have all looked like they might be useful.

I meant I’ll be back to correct myself if my take is BS as opposed to yours mate! ;)

I’m actually not most upset about the volley. He should bury it, but sometimes those just don’t go in. He has to get that pass across for the tap in. The defender did a great job, but that doesn’t really excuse him not getting it across earlier or anticipating the block. That is 3 times in two games (cup game and league game) that he could have given us a tap in. Those he has to start getting right. We put both of these games away if he does his job there.
