The irony of sammy using stats to back up his posts is not lost on me, but then again you'd expect that from a fucking hypocrit who belittles stats until they suit him.
Twat.
Haha....nice job.
There is a big difference between using the FACT that Soldado has had 13 shots on target in 19 games and using STATS to "prove" we are doing better or worse than a previous season by saying "we beat West Ham last year and lost this year" as some kind of comparision, while ignoring all real life the factors that have passed in a year.
Then saying "well Wigan got relegated, so I'll just swap them for Cardiff".....
Or using a heat map and saying Soldado had a good game, even if he missed 4 sitters and didnt touch the ball.
Im also not using stats to judge Soldado. Im watching him.
Twat
It's obvious to everyone what you are here.
NEXT.
Stats are facts......
I detest stats
I still think stats are bullshit though. Or not bullshit, just meaningless.
The main reason why stats mean nothing to me personally
of the 44 shots he has had 41 have been inside the area, only Suarez, Aguero and Giroud have had more.
Stats eh?
But you used stats yourself few pages earlier to illustrate Defoe should start ahead of Soldado?Translates as....he's missed 40 of those shots from inside the box.
Yet you use the stat as a positive.
Thats my point about stats Zin, and I stand by view of them, so no need to keep posting my quotes as Ive not changed my opinion.
It's funny when you can't respond to your post conflicts you immediately turn this into some sort of vendetta against you.

Ive responded to every post.
Funny how you keep ignoring the difference between using twisted stats, and living in the real world

Wait are you using those numbers as stats or fact? I'm confused. I thought you said you use your eyes to determine what's going on? Are you saying all 40 shots were clear-cut chances? I don't remember seeing that.
No I didnt.
Defoe has scored the same amount of goals from open play in 3 games, that Soldado has in 18.
JD has had 7 shots on target in 419 minutes
Soldado has had 13 shots on target in 1505 minutes
