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? Â
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?Â
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? Â
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 ?Â
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?Â
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?Â
I don’t know if i’m the best or not. The most important thing is doing my job and helping the team

I was very very happy for him, he really deserved it. I saw him working and waiting for this moment

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?Â
Everyone, I don’t have just one special one!

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…Â

Burney Wong: Do you think Ricardo Faty would ever join the A-League?Â
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
