Sempiternal

Don’t think I’ll ever understand why people think it’s rubbish. It’s basically the underlying data behind “we are playing really well but aren’t scoring” which fans say all the time lol. Conversely, we are playing really badly but somehow scoring from the little that we create. It’s the best metric we have imo

Willock and ASM both toasted him iirc tbf. I don’t expect Gordon to rinse him but he seems intent on turning backwards.

Man we really made rice look like pirlo.

Physically definitely, mentally I’m not 100 percent on that yet

Im hoping he gets better of course but they are the concerns I had with him at Everton

Means you can drop players who are out of form tbf

You got nowt better to do today lol?

https://sqaf.club/goals-from-corners-stats/ lots of context of course, but corners are generally not a reliable goal scoring chance, I would rather work a short corner

I’ve always subscribed to the idea that short corners are better, just my opinion of course but that stat is minging

The problem doesn’t lie with Trips

He’s an absolutely brilliant footballer, great feet, can evade pressure, vision, positions well defensively he’s literally got the the lot.

Also the more handsome man, let’s keep that quota up imo

Haha, nah I don’t think it does, I prefer the route of up and coming players but sometimes you’ve got to buy what you need. You can salo kind of do what arsenal did with partey. They needed him badly, he’s not young but he’s the best DM in the league and they are top. You just have to sometimes

Maddison, for instance, just pay what he’s worth

You need a mix to win stuff I think. Sometimes you have to spend big and get what you need but on the whole I’m the same, I prefer it

That was the most egregious. Bruno rightly saw red, Cas should have too

He did yeah, no shade on ASM he’s a very good defender and his acceleration is nuts. A more Athletic dribbler like ASM will struggle against him, you’re better off with a Hatem type who’s going to beat with skill alone

He’s so annoyingly lengthy, like extended telescopic legs.

Honestly baffled AWB doesn’t get in the England squad ahead of Trent. He can actually defend. Always been a big fan of his

I know we don’t have anyone to come on for him yesterday but he looked concussed to fuck I thought

Botman only got one start for Ajax in a friendly before he moved to hereenveen, he played for Jong Ajax mostly. Haven’t maths checked his age but he would have been around 19/20

Botman’s worse game for us i thought, still love the guy. Is anyone else concerned how much out CBs get beamed in the head like? Schar seems to get near KOd every week lol

I mean you’ve literally said it’s most likely he’s not going to make it at this level?

Not sure I want Webb having a say in the running of the refereeing in this country.

Targett is a good left back like, defensively he’s very good
