True I've been a bit hasty there. Barely though. I'm looking through the stats myself now

wrong, 6% crosses stopped puts him firmly in the middle

Collins is better than Johansson in almost every relevant statistical measure...

can we all agree not to do this? If we lost 6-0 tomorrow I wouldn't be worried. It's a totally meaningless match.

I don't know. Suspect the style of football would suit him more, less physical. And he can put himself in the shop window for a move to a bigger club in Spain.

Would it? Top division, better climate, fewer matches

He has been better than Palmer

I can see myself spending more time on my phone checking scores than watching the match tbh

That wouldn't happen. Players still have a value assigned to them in an exchange deal. We would then get the % of the overall value of the deal, not just the cash portion. And it can even be beneficial for clubs to overvalue their players in such a deal (see the Barca - Juve Arthur/Pjanic...

I prefer Wright on the left vs centrally. He's much better receiving the ball facing goal, rather than away from it. He's also quite good at getting to the byline and standing one up. Simms is certainly better at playing with his back to goal, using his body and bringing others into play.

If we hadn't gifted them 3 points they'd be down already

Eccles at centre back? Been on the sauce?

It's easy to see why Dasilva was signed, he's much better technically, close control, short passing etc. He just isn't a full back though and gets dominated physically, both aerially and in a foot race. I think he could only be useful there if we became a side that averaged 65%+ possession and...

He’s not our captain

ST holder 🤷‍♂️ Although nowadays you can watch every game from your sofa so I'm not sure why it would make anyone's opinions less valid if they did that.

I put a lot of that down to personnel though. Milan isn't a winger, Lati isn't a full back and Kelly is pedestrian. You would hope next year Kelly is gone, Milan is back at RB and Lati sees less minutes as a squad player.

Buying and keeping players in their "prime" (26-30 ish) is the most expensive way to run a club. Transfer fees for them will be high, their wage demands will be high and when it's time for them to move on you will get less for them and may also struggle to shift them because of said wage...

city fans trying not to tell people how many matches they go to but I agree, it's an area to improve. I guess my opinion is that our run of good form is more representative of the situation we will be in next season. I blame our two runs of bad form on 5 at the back and then not having any...

Shit tactics? We’ve used largely the same tactics as our good spell though? I guess a lot of your frustrations seem misplaced to me. I look at this season and think the ways we could’ve done better were 1. Switching from 3/5 at the back earlier 2. Bringing in more than one player in Jan...

What’s a fair whack in your view? We’d probably get 5-800k max for Bidwell. Don’t see us spending 15-20m unless Sheaf leaves and Vik moves.
