Very interesting stat about L1 goalies.
Save % linked to difficulty of shots.


One goalie is flying over this league and it's Lucas Chevalier.
Strong rumours linking him to Barcelona the last week here. And to be fair whenever I'd seen him I was sure it was just a question of time until he'd become one of the best goalkeepers in the world

Rayan Cherki is absolutely unstoppable right now.
He's Europe's best dribbler (keeping mind the zone where he dribbles), averages more than 2 key passes per game,

Cherki is a one-dimensional player, tell us about the boy's non-possession phase, because I personally saw him grazing on the pitch several times. In my opinion he is a good player, but I wouldn't be surprised if he goes to play in Arabia in 5 years. Technically he is super gifted, a beautiful shot, but there are some flags that are too scary. Let's see what he does, he could be a bargain at the right price, he's clearly not one to build around.

You can't keep that round figure but doing defensive work. Still would like him at Barcelona though

Lyon is laughing because they wanted to dump him last summer (last contract year) and they rejected offers of 15M (PSG big mistake).
Now he's signed an extension and nobody is going to get him for 20M.
Kudos to BVB who had the player's agreement but the coach and sporting director disagreed on him.

There is some truth, but it is also true that for the role he plays, dribbling often means creating numerical superiority too.
