If you hover over the number sometimes further information is made available. For example, hover over aerial duels won per game, and you get the number won and the number attempted. Sadly the stats won''t tell you if someones 80% passing success is just because they are knocking it 5 yards sideways every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually surprised how similar they are.Anyway, last weekend you were going on about how it''s not Johnson and Tettey''s fault, now you want to blame them? :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gingerpele 0 Posted April 28, 2013 No, you said it all of your own accord. In fact you said more than once. I can''t remember the exact time, before the game though. And you said almost exactly this ''Its not their job (Johnson and Tettey) to set up chances for the strikers'' and then something like ''thats not what they''re good at''.Which is perfectly true, and there is no need to try and persecute them. If anything, that is Hughton''s fault for playing two CMs for the majority of the season who are very unlikely to actually create anything decent. Both have done, Tettey''s shot against Arsenal leading to Holt''s goal. And Johnson''s pass of the season to Pilks against Swansea. But its not what they''re good at. And not what their role in the team, especially a PL team, should be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RvWs 4 year contract 0 Posted April 28, 2013 I suppose I am blaming Hughton for Holt''s lack of goals and chances this year...Why do we persist with Johnson AND Tettey? It should be one or the other with Howson along side being allowed to push on.My ideal team:Ruddy, Bassong, Turner, Whittaker, Russell Martin, Johnson, Howson, Snodgrass, Pilks, Wes and Holty.

Gingerpele 0 Posted April 28, 2013 My ideal team, is more along the lines of:Ruddy, Sergio Ramos, Hummels, Bassong, Jordi AlbaJohnsonXavi, LampardMessi, Holt, NeymarBrilliant side. Think its what we should be aiming for next season to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
