Season Rating: 7 Success Of Sale Rating: 4 Syvlain Marveaux was sent on a season-long loan to Guingamp last summer after Alan Pardew made it clear the playmaker was not in his plans - a view that has since been adopted by John Carver. Despite this, Marveaux has had a reasonable season in France, contributing two goals and three assists during 2014-15. Although not exactly prolific, Marveaux has received praise from a number of Ligue 1 commentators for his impressive performances. Creativity was severely lacking on Tyneside during the campaign - but it wasn't at Guingamp. Another pointless loan deal, depriving the Magpies of an option in attack.
