Left footed but interestingly, he turns 27 in a few months.



A replacement for Igor in a Albion squad with no Hummels?

We need a player that can turn 27 every game. Several months is far too slow.

Translation - roughly

PSV receives an offer from Brighton for Olivier Boscagli and gives a very short answer

Once again a PSV defender is in the interest of a foreign club. The British Brighton & Hove Albion wants to acquire Olivier Boscagli, but cannot or does not want to meet PSV's asking price at the moment. The Eindhoven club has therefore said 'no'. A departure for the Monegasque would now be particularly bad, just when there are already some defensive concerns in Eindhoven. Yet PSV thinks it can cope with this.

What I really want to know is if he’s got any pace. We could do with that at the back.

Not really, but more pace than Matts Hummels.

Its hard to find any stats which detail pace, other than Football Manager.

Knowing that they do proper research into these things, here are Olivier Boscagli's Speed stats from the latest edition of FM.

SPEED 65
ACCELERATION 65
AGILITY 60
PACE 65

For comparison, here's Dunk's
SPEED 60
ACCELERATION 55
AGILITY 55
PACE 70

and JPVH's

Presumably we're possibly signing him as a centre back? Not left back cover?

Wikipedia suggests the guy is just under 6 foot. Now, I know i'm about to be accused of touching myself whilst indulging in some sordid English fantasy of having strapping 6 foot beefcakes all through your team .......

But the harsh truth is that in the PL, you need to have centre backs who will be at least competitive in aeriel duels again Fullkrug, Isak, Nunez, Haaland, Mateta, Hoijland, etc etc etc. JPVH and Dunky have their hands full and they are both 6 foot 3 +

From the player's video, he has a lovely pass through the lines. Maybe more of a cover for Wieffer? Not sure you can thrive as a CB in this league unless you're up with Dunky and JP height-wise

I hate to be that guy but FM ratings are out of 20. They appear to be FIFA ratings.

Is there still imbiciles on here not wanting Hummels?

One of the very top German players around!

Have we really become that entitled.

Blimey! This monogasque laddie looks a decent signing unless it is just social media “ what can I write about now” twaddle?
