He was injured and only able to play 18 matches, yet still came joint 3rd in assists.

His assists/90 was 0.74. 2nd was 0.53 - 30% less!

G+A/90 he was 4th in the league!

You've fucking lost the plot!
Large portions of those games he stank.

Still pitched in with assists, but caused other issues with their game.

They flowed better without him and Haaland on the field and things would have been less sticky, overall.

Watched all their games.

There is a bigger picture.

And there are finer measures than just assists.

Stats are THE biggest issue with dorks running their mouths about football, without really understanding it.

G/A warriors.

Lame.

Face it. We live in a world where Som and KDB are “washed” and G/As aren’t unimportant. And Toney will solve our striker woes.

What a time to be alive

I'm so tired of you fucking anti-stat idiots talking about "watch the games". As if there's some magical way in which a footballer runs and moves that matters more than all else.

Since the beginning of fucking time, the result of the mat h is the team with the most goals wins. It's not some sort of moneyball statistical computer science fucking analysis. The. Most. Goals. Wins.

All that fucking matters is goals, you wobble. Anyone who plays half the season and has the 3rd most assists is fucking elite. Anyone who has the most assists/min by a full 150% of 2nd place is fucking elite.

Any player is going to "stink" for large portions of any match. You know why? Because scoring goals at the PL level is fucking hard. Most crosses fail. Most thru balls fail. Most dribbles fail. Most set pieces fail. Most shots are off target. Those which aren't are usually saved. Getting one to come off now and again is great. Getting one to come off practically every match is fucking world class.

Boring and ignorant.

Go wank off to your squawka mag.

Football is absolutely finished.

Football is finished because goals are more important than impressing thinktank thinktank

Been linked to any players in the Spain league?
This is all I've seen;

''It may seem obvious that Bryan Gil will be leaving Tottenham Hotspur this summer, but a report from Spain has suggested Sevilla are not expecting things to be ‘simple’ when they try to sign the winger in the coming months.''


The report is from the end of May this year.

Because the appreciation of the game by Generation Bimbo is mechanical and soulless; increasingly driven by stats, devoid of qualitative variables, substance and a deep understanding of the game.

Fisting off to G/A all day long.

Loathsome.

Gabby Agbonlahor said pretty much the same thing on Talk sport today.

You might want to think about that, considering Agbonlahor has the IQ of your average jelly fish.
