Can't see how they ever thought this would pan out. Sack Conte but promote his right hand man to keep playing the same way but without the same knowledge/clout/experience/respect etc.

No. That CB pairing is weak to say the least. Makes you think they should have kept McNally.

You are probably right. That's why I was convinced he'll get away with it just his interview after was a bit silly. There's probably enough there for him to contest it & get away with it.

Yep. People forget Godden actually admitted it too.

Hardly anything on there in any size.

You have 22 players on the pitch actively & intentionally cheating & looking to con the officials non-stop for the entirety of the match & we are outraged when eventually they get a decision wrong. Simple answer is, stop cheating.

I think he'll get a 2 game ban (same as Godden). I initially thought he'd probably get away with it as there's such a high bar to prove it's deliberate deception i.e. he could claim he just stumbled or what have you but to go live on Sky Sports & admit you went down because you anticipated the...

Completely agree on that. I think Gyok deserved it over Akpom but hey ho.

This is what forums are for, good civilised debate 😁

Exactly, which is why we have so many other metrics nowadays that we can make a judgement on & average them out so we're comparing apples with apples as best we can. Johansson faces more difficult shots, saves more shots, has a higher save % (awful stat by itself) etc. We can look at the Post...

But then you're ruling out a player simply because he plays for a weaker team. Is De Gea the best keeper in the Premier League?

Believe me, in the right circles they do! That's why xG & particularly npxG will always be looked at when assessing a strikers finishing. Extreme hypothetical example but if a keeper makes no saves in a game & keeps a clean sheet is he better than a keeper that faces 20 excellent shots & 3...

Understand what you're saying but Clean Sheets is really a team achievement. Wilson averages just over 3 Shots on Target Against per 90, putting him in the bottom 3rd for SOTA. Johansson faces almost 5 Shots on Target per 90 (96th percentile) Johansson faces more shots, more difficult shots...

Hamer incredibly unlucky, it was decided some time ago but still harsh. That Midfield is... odd. Brownhill isn't even Burnley's best CM, Scott is an incredible talent (& deservedly YPOTY) but hasn't had the season of the likes of Cullen, Norwood or of course Gus & shoehorning a winger/forward...

I count 14 players in squad v Reading that also were in squad for the previous game. EFL guidelines say 10. No case to answer. The irony being they played their 'full strength' team yesterday vs QPR & lost.

Yep. Excellent at that level. That's 25 goals for the season. Was 2nd highest scorer last season too with 27.

Exactly right. Incredible desperation from Huddersfield to make such a complaint.

Great performance. Well done Kels 👏🏻

Agree with most of that. The only thing I'd say is the clear view thing, the angle they have is completely different to the rest of us watching from the stands/on TV etc.
