That first miss
He really is the worst best footballer in the world.
That's such a good description
Cavani's missed chances vs Metz & let's talk about di maria too

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
That's such a good description
I agree he's a better player than Deeney, he's still not top bracket (which he's sometimes rated as). And I doubt most people are rating or judging him just off the back of this game.
Sounds like a lot of you are too young to remember Andy Cole! now that lad could miss some chances - still helped us to win the CL.
Current Cavani is that fine line between Andy Cole and Danny Welback.
The next Gonzalez Higuain.
Higuain had some misses in his life but I can guarantee you that he is lethal right now.
This is a myth, peddled by Glenn Hoddle to justify how he kept ignoring a prolific striker.
Cole had a couple of difficult seasons for us after signing. After that he was very consistent in front of goal.
I would take Andy Cole over Edinson Cavani any day of the week. Also, after he found his feet at United, Andy Cole rarely bottled it in the big games.
Another funny compilation 
You're not gonna believe halfway through the video what he did

Scored 4 in the first half against Caen.
I rest my case.
Should have had another 4 against Arsenal.
Nothing like destroying a shit team to get some confidence back up.
The guy's incredible at everything except finishing. LOVE IT!
Scored 4 today against Caen
And to pump his stats for people who rate players just by stats.
In the first half, he also missed what probably were 2 golden opportunities too.
What a weird striker he is.
Apparently he has missed some huge chances again today?
He could have done better with his finishing but I'd say it's more to the brilliance of the keeper rather than Cavani being Cavani.
Cavani chances
The second one was straight at the keeper and maybe he could've done better, but the first one was an exceptional save by the GK!
Second one is a sitter.
Clip reminds me of Fellaini's attempts which are aimed at the keeper every single time.
Rooney - Cavani partnership would be
First one is just a great save.
PSG looked bad today.
Lucas + Aurier were really bad. Aurier has an excuse because of his ankle injury, but Lucas was terrible. Aurier did make a silly foul for the pk and red card, which pretty much cost them the game though....
Emery needs to find out the right balance for his team. Right now, he is experimenting too much and isn't putting out the best and most balanced 11.
GK (Both aren't great)
Aurier-Marquinhos-Silva-Kurzawa
Kop
verratti-ADM
Lucas-Cavani-Jese
Matudi is good, however, ADM as a CM would fit better with the team and allow jese the starting role on the left side. PSG need to sell Pastore back to Italy and use raibot as a backup b2b CM.

I really like Cavani, if he could get his finishing togethwr he'd be one of the best strikers in the world. I dont know one player bar Ronaldo who makes such good runs, his pace, strength and agility gets him into great positions. Only his finishing keeps him away from being a 30goal striker at minimum. Strange considering he was deadly at Napoli. I hope Rashford can develop into a similar striker.
The Cavani we saw at Napoli is a different Cavani than the one at PSG right now. It happens. A new environment might be good for Cavani but I guess PSG pays too good.
Has scored a brace in the 1st half vs Bordeaux. 8 goals in Ligue 1 so far.
He wastes so many chances despite being fed by a class midfield behind and beside him. But, his movement is really good. That leap for the 2nd chance in that video was perfect. Too perfect indeed. He looks like one of those forwards who always have a knack of being at the right position at the right time.
But good goals in the Bordeaux game. Hopefully, it gives him more confidence

On 11 goals already. Is there a striker with more goals so far? Aguero is on 11 too.
His movement is as good as anyone's, maybe even the best in the world. When he is on form he is lethal but generally he needs too much chances to score.
Prime example of not judging on stats, he's scored 9 goals in 5 matches since that Arsenal horror show.
Do PSG fans like him? His record for them is great but then you look at his misses and his shocking performances in big games.
He's back doing what he does best
Cavani & Matuidi are the most controversial players amongst PSG fans over the Internet.
There is a consensus to say he isn't very reliable but is the only one decent scorer in the team.
No choice but to hope he will be good on the European scene.
How can someone be so clinical with first time shots, volleys and headers and yet mess up so often when he takes more than two touches in front of goal?
Instinct ?
Cavani is currently on 47 goals in all club competitions...
Welbeck wasn't clinical but I found he was much better on instinct too.
