Underrated post 😆

Sure but his last was 10 years ago.

He's played in both the last 2 matches, strange definition of "bombed".

1362 minutes, just 3 less than McCallum. "Hardly played" 🤡

Do you not watch any football other than us? He's been playing to a high level for the past decade when fit.

He's scored 1 goal from open play in 20 games. The other 4 are all penalties. He's been really poor

That account tries far too hard, get a real job man 🤦🏼‍♂️

Totally, can't believe Norwich kept him in the summer. Wouldn't be surprised if they keep him until next summer now too as can't see anyone paying the £40m they're asking for in January so he'll surely fire them to promotion. Fantastic player. Harvey Elliott still only 17 :oops:

I'm confused is all & it seems I'm not the only one. You want Sheaf to be a similar player to Makelele & a similar player to Kroos even though those 2 play(ed) completely different roles to one another. It's fine, you've explained it better here, you just don't like his style of player, fair...

Madness. As if Makelele or Kroos are remotely similar roles either yet poor old Sheaf is expected to be a combination of the 2 at 22 years old playing in the 2nd tier for the first time ever 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ok. I still don't know how 'fair' or truly reflective it will be but then I don't fully understand Glicko systems either. Be interested to see how it pans out. 👍🏻

I might do the analysis some time for my own interests but you'll probably change the argument again so little point sharing.

These guys that actually handle recruitment for a number of clubs obviously don't understand either... I'll let them know to hit you up on here so you can put them right with your expertise.

This whole thread was all about Matty James until you used it as a thread to slate Sheaf with your nonsense. The fact that you misunderstand player roles so much made me think you probably wouldn't rate a player like James because he's not known for the spectacular either.

I assume you're dead against the Matty James signing too?

Sheaf was the best at his role in League One & a perfect fit for us. Signing him for such a low fee when his midfield partner Ben Whiteman is 2 years older & looks like costing £2-3m should be viewed as a major coup in anyone's books. Anyway, Matty James...

Yep. Kroos: Forward Passes: 27.8% Sheaf: Forward Passes: 29.7% Turns out Toni Kroos is just a poor man's Sammy Clingan, who knew?

It'd be really awkward if I showed you that Sheaf plays higher % of his passes forward than Kroos wouldn't it...?

Agreed, great signing.
