Toadhall Saint Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 He reminds me a little of Ivan Golac - I’ll probably get pelted for that but hey ho. 2
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Spiky, tenacious, keen to get forward, not afraid to put his foot in and getting better with each game. We have 3 brilliant full backs and one will have to be disappointed each week.
DT Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Character, heart, ability. Excellent. Think some early doubters should reappraise. Side looks balanced.
Lighthouse Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Love it when fullbacks have a smash from that kind of position, wish it had gone in. It’s the biggest difference between this season and last IMO. Having three quality fullbacks gives us the options and the rotation Ralph has been craving to play with this intensity. The second half of last season it was just KWP, when fit, and Bertrand stamping his timesheet on the other side. 4
S-Clarke Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 He's a bit infectious isn't he, really tenacious style to his play and isn't beaten all too often. He's not slow either as he caught up with Moura and Son on a few occasions. I love the guys heart and desire, he's not flashy but he's full of effort. 3
Suhari Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 I'm repeating myself: big fan of Perraud. Tenacious, energetic, niggly, committed. A left footer at left back: likes to throw an early cross in. I love KWP, but we need an proper LB at LB! Seems we have one. Good signing and is getting better. Will love it when he scores a screamer from 25 yards.
Sheaf Saint Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Could he and Elyounoussi become our new Bridge and Marsden? 5

Committed, French LB. Not a world beater but has the potential to be a bit of a cult hero with his tenacity.

The only other French LB I remember us having was Colleter in the late 90s, but from what I remember he was a bit too casual so it's not a fair comparison to make.

Edit: In fairness I didn't get to watch many games around that time because I was working most weekends. I only remember him scoring a cracker against Charlton (I think?) and he fell out of favour when Hoddle charge. Edited 10 February, 2022 by Sheaf Saint 1

Sheaf Saint Posted 9 February, 2022 Posted 9 February, 2022 Just now, Dr. Kucho said: Wasn’t Olivier Bernard French and ‘played’ at left back? Ah yes. But he was only with us for half a season and played in that terrible defence that saw us relegated.
OttawaSaint Posted 10 February, 2022 Posted 10 February, 2022 He's got a real edge to him. Too bad that shot from outside the box didn't cannon in off the bar. Night and day to Bertie lumbering up and giving up on tracking back.

tajjuk Posted 10 February, 2022 Posted 10 February, 2022 We only need A.Armstrong to start having a few better performances and pretty much all our recent signings would be successful I think. Even Elyounoussi is contributing. Perraud looks like he took a little while to settle to the league but really good he didn't let basically a teenager and a right back (playing left back) taking his place get him down, fought to earn his place back with good performances. You'd have to argue that Tino would struggle to get back into the team now, as both Perraud and KWP are playing really well. 3

Manuel Posted 12 February, 2022 Posted 12 February, 2022 Decent again today. You can see the improvement since he joined. So busy and another who seems to have got up to speed in super quick time.

So busy and another who seems to have got up to speed in super quick time. Yes and I'm liking the fact that, even though he's a full back, he is not shy on getting deep into the opposition territory and having efforts on goal. He's been unlucky so far but is certainly due for one to go in.
woodsaint1 Posted 12 February, 2022 Posted 12 February, 2022 Hes been super throughout his recent run in the side. Cant believe some questioned his ability after a matter of 2/3 games - a new player in a new team, playing in a much more physical league. Many foreign signings take time to adapt, and hes showing excellent form only 6 months in. Would have given him a full season to find his feet but hes exceeded expectations. 1
The Kraken Posted 12 February, 2022 Posted 12 February, 2022 Very glad his performances are on the up. As recently as the Swansea game I expressed reservations about him, I thought he was poor again that night. He’s definitely going in the right direction though and has been very impressive in the past few games. Long may it continue, it’s obviously much nicer to have a proper lefty playing at left back.

Our best rb is also unlucky to be playing out of position. See no reason to change this appraisal, although Livramento has picked up again since he's been back. Still think our best two are perraud and kwp though. Perraud is class, great attacking and recovery stats from ligue 1 last season and you can see why now. 3
Dusic Posted 2 March, 2022 Posted 2 March, 2022 (edited) Looks another good signing. Really tenacious player, gets tight to people and is solid on the ball. Only thing we haven't seen is an ability to beat his man in the final third and cross, but his off the ball running is good. Edited 2 March, 2022 by Dusic 1
S-Clarke Posted 2 March, 2022 Posted 2 March, 2022 It took him a while, but I think that's because he wasn't the sort of player I was expecting. I was looking for a KWP type at left back, which is why I was maybe a little underwhelmed at the start. But. he's tenacious, terrier-like. He hasn't got the driving runs or skill of KWP, but he has heart and the right attitude and that alone immediately upgrades our LB position for the last 3 years.

I don't think he has dribbling ability in his locker but he doesn't really need it.
igsey Posted 3 March, 2022 Posted 3 March, 2022 He's going to score 10 goals a season if he gets regular starts!
skintsaint Posted 14 June, 2022 Posted 14 June, 2022 https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/20205867.two-choices---southampton-ace-positive-mind-livramento-english-life/ Seems like enjoying the challenge. Hope to better from him next season as he has adjusted to the pace a bit more. 1
Master Bates Posted 16 October, 2022 Posted 16 October, 2022 Wasn't Jos Hooiveld the last Saints defender to score a goal 2 games in a row against West Ham? 1
Bad Wolf Posted 17 October, 2022 Posted 17 October, 2022 Perraud has got a good shot on him but that's about it. Really can't see anything that impressive so far.

Really can't see anything that impressive so far. He was our best player yesterday. Aggressive, huge workrate and not afraid to have a shot unlike far too many others. Having watches MotD last night, they should've had a penalty for one of his challenges and he got away with an assault in the corner but at least he got stuck into them and gave them a rough afternoon Edited 17 October, 2022 by Viking Saint 1
