Mattoon Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Can't blame the lad, he's warned them all summer and they haven't listened, anyone with an ounce of self respect and a desire to be at the top of their game should be looking at the door.

Superior Acuña Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 He needs to get out of our joyless club. Hope he leaves the PL though, don't want him against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbthree3 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) We have one of Europe's best dribblers, a steal of a signing for the price we paid. https://theanalyst.com/eu/2021/03/advanced-metrics-top-five-european-leagues/ Was just looking at some stats from last season, 8.7 take on attempts which is 2nd only to Neymar, and is successful 63% of the time. For a player attempting around 9 take-ons per match - moving with the ball past an opponent - it's pretty much best in Europe. Adam Ounas while at Crotone averaged 7 take-ons with a 70% success rate which is the only success rate higher I can compare to. Messi last season: 7.8 with a 61% success rate. Saint doesn't contribute as much in attack, whether that's xG (0.15), goals (0.17), xA (0.12) or assists (0.23) which is where he falls compared to the greats, per match. For us he's virtually the best still! For his speciality, it's amazing. 1 chance per match from a carry which is 9th best in Europe last season.

nbthree3 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Yeah this shows what I was thinking https://dataviz.theanalyst.com/season-reviews/2020/?competition_id=8&season_id=2020 36 chance creating carries. He's great at dribbling and getting past players, but compared to the rest of the players (it's still top 20 in the division) he creates fewer chances. Naturally because he played 1568 minutes last season - 18 carries per 90 3rd best in the league, mental Edited July 27, 2021 by nbthree3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Too good for this shit show, course he's getting sold. Ashley will have a price, probably around £45m and his agent will be told if he wants to leave find a club willing to pay it, otherwise you've got 5 years in purgatory.

I agree he's got fitness issues but I'm not sure they're enough to keep him here. It'll keep him from a big bastard super club, sure, but there are many layers of mediocre teams between us and the BIG LADS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Yeah but I think we'll ask for daft money and that'll put everyone off. Then he'll get annoyed and eventually maybe loaned out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 We certainly won’t be getting 60m, maybe 30m for his potential. His scoring and assist stats are shit like Almiron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWN Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 "It was too late to spend the money " see it coming . I want him gone , get out of the club ASM , let the turmoil begin , howay the sale , fuck Ashley, Bruce and Luke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 My impression is that the clubs who can afford him, don't particularly want him. He's very good at running with the ball, but not so great at linking with his team mates. At the level and style in which we are playing, he makes a big difference.

I think by and large Perez has been pretty average when I’ve seen him play for Leicester. He’s nearly always on the bench now also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
