Ahead of Saturday’s Sydney Derby, Mickael Tavares hosted the live Twitter chat today on location at Player Partner Mercato e Cucina. During the forty minutes we learnt what video game he plays, whether he was disappointed with a 98% pass accuracy and what he loves most about Sydney.
Paulina Hopkins: Who is your ultimate team you’d dream to play for?
@FCBarcelona. Their football is amazing!
YUMNA: Hi Mickael,How are you..? I wanna know,what do you think about #SydneyFC this season if compared with last season?
I think so far we are doing good, when i arrived last year we were 6th but we will keep improving
Nicholas Rupolo: Did you ever play anywhere else on the field in your career besides midfield?
I’ve always played midfield
Anthony Futia: Do you rate Andrew Hoole as a DJ?
Maybe for the people who like his music 😉 I don’t normally listen to that type of music
nathan: Who’s better you or faty? 😀
He’s a different position so I can’t say!!
Johnson ZHANG: What do you think is the main key for Sky Blues to progress to the round of 16 in ACL 2016?
The main key is to not be scared, take our chances and take on the big teams because we are also big
Burney Wong: Who do you think is more knowledgeable? @TheRealBozza or @RobbieSlater17 ?
Hard to say! I’ll say they’re both very knowledgable but I like @TheRealBozza’s philosophy
Alex Wain: It’s still a painful memory for all #SydneyFC fans but what do you think went so wrong @gomvfc in the Grand Final?
They were just better on the day, that’s the past though and we look forward to the future!
nathan: How does it feel being the best midfielder in Australia?
I don’t know if i’m the best or not. The most important thing is doing my job and helping the team

Not a fan, but they are a big club with a big history.

They’re a good team, the best in China. Big money, big players. I’m looking forward to playing them
Johnson ZHANG: Who is your favorite teammate you worked with at the Sky Blues rather than your cousin Jacques Faty?
Everyone, I don’t have just one special one!
md.: Mickael, if you score the winner in the last minute on Saturday how will you celebrate?
I don’t know, i don’t score a lot so i don’t have a special celebration! We will wait and see 😉
md.: Hey Mickael, who do you dislike more – Wanderers or Victory?
I’m not focussed on that, I just want to win. I haven’t beaten Victory so maybe them…

The Grand Final because we did well to make the final, it was our objective when we arrived
Burney Wong: Do you think Ricardo Faty would ever join the A-League?
He’s doing good in Turkey but in the future why not! He would be good for the league

I like that he’s funny, he’s real but i really dislike his snoring!!! He snores like an elephant!

It’s nice, about the same atmosphere!I I can really feel the competition, it’s a great feeling
