Traditionally yes but not always. Still think Grimes numbers would be high compared to the rest of Swansea. Same reason his pass stats are really high is due to the amount of the ball they keep. Can’t tackle a player who doesn’t have the ball

I mean depends on the system and the player. Some systems will put in a DM who is there to win the ball back and retain the ball. Ala Ben Sheaf 22/23. Some systems will want them to act more as a quarterback and move the ball and create chances from deep. Both exist still although the later is...

While there not great I would add that due to Swansea retaining more of the ball then any team bar Leeds, stats such as ground duels are going to be lower as he would be facing less of them

I always think the opposite to be fair, people often see what they want to see. If they have an opinion that he only plays it sideways they’ll discredit the forward passes and focus only on the safe ones. Stats can’t have opinions, it’s just the facts.

As well as the gaffer

Jesus Christ 99% on most. That is ridiculous.

Nice try but the date gives it away 😝

Allen at the moment

Unless the agents leaked to try and force it though after two offers were turned down?

Sure someone will tell me different but he was always going to go. I think Mark stated he told him this on the coach back.

Sounds like the pair from the muppets Christmas carol 🤣

With all of this talk on Grimes and Paterson. If we get both can we announce it to the Hot Fuzz “no luck catching those Swans then” 🤣

Best not to think about 🤣

On the 30K, based on the bbc he’s meant to be getting a significant pay rise. Can’t be that far off our 25K rumoured limit so maybe there is something to it

To be fair not saying we are or aren’t but Doug is still new to this himself maybe he sees it as a mistake ? Either way just hope it happens

From the wales online. Seems the wage limit is about to be broken Grimes is currently one of the top earners at Swansea, but could be in line for big pay rise should the move go through, with Coventry understood to be ready to offer him between £30k-£35k a week.

So confirmed then 🤣
