Steve Savidan: “In speed, he is not there, when the ball is at his feet, he is not precise enough…”

On TV7, the former center forward, now a consultant,
Steve Savidanreturned to the meeting of the Girondins de Bordeaux against Granville, estimating that the Bordeaux wingers had not responded, starting with the centers.

“The centers still have a lot of work to do. He lacks precision, information gathering, a strong foot, such a coherent idea… There are many technical players who cannot find the right destination for the ball, because they cannot not to visualize where they want to put it. If we make a cross for the sake of making a cross, because Andy Carroll is 1.95m, that doesn’t really make sense… So you have to know his movement, know what he’s going to do, where his opponents are… You have to let it go very quickly.”

Then he particularly targeted Amadou
Diallo.

“He wasn’t in his game… His first half wasn’t up to par. In speed, he is not there, when the ball is at his feet, he is not precise enough, not hard enough in his duels… I would have hoped that he would make me lie. Behind him, Depussay recovered a lot of balls quite high up, did not necessarily find himself attacked, and therefore quickly released the ball for Amadou Diallo… Now, you need a lot more strength in this player’s decision-making.
