Are you ever going to explain what this is meant to be showing?

It's a measure of performance based on results.

It's quite a sophisticated form guide is it not .
Over successive games it evaluates both teams playing strengths.

Becoming more honed/accurate the more matches are played.

Yes, the more matches played the more reliability there is in the ratings.

Trying not to take up this thread with the ins or outs of this but at the end of the season, we have the numbers to do what's in the underneath thread.

Expecting a game as dull as dishwater, you’ll set up to press us into mistakes at the back, with a solid defensive shape, they’ll be very few clear cut chances for ether side, as we cancel each other out in the middle of the park, it’ll be the sort of game that’s good to get out of the way early in the season.

0-0 bore draw.

A repeat of last season!

Which players do you think will be given the job of fouling O'Hare?

 

[CDK]

Think a nil all or a 1-0 win either way I'll be backing 1-0 city.

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Think we may line up with two up top and attack. 4.1 city. Waghorn brace. Looking forward to the first away day in a long time.

 

[Barnsley]

We’ll share it round to avoid cards for as long as possible.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

We’ll share it round to avoid cards for as long as possible.

If the ref is anything like the one from the Cov Forest game you need not worry about cards they will all go to us

 

[shmmeee]

Think I’d start with most of the team than finished against Forest.

Moore
Hyam Fadz Rose
Dabo Hamer Sheaf Maatsen
O’Hare
Walker Györkeres

S: Wilson, Pask, Jones, Howley, Allen, Bright, Waghorn

We desperately need those two loans in. We need more than that but at least those two.

 

[skybluesam66]

the left back position worries me in that line up

 

[David O'Day]

A bit like the league table then?

 

[shmmeee]

the left back position worries me in that line up

I thought he showed enough against Forest to be worth sticking with. We really need 4/5 players in, I can’t decide if we need two CBs more or one and a LWB. Our squad is paper thin at the back, if we lose Maatsen or one of the back three we’re fucked.

 

[shmmeee]

No, the league table is skewed by the quality of teams others have played. This attempts to normalise that and provide a “true” position. If it’s working the league table should match it after the final game.

Maatsen showed he had the ability but people need to remember this is his first game at this level and folk need to remember players in this league are better, faster and stronger than league 1 so they shouldn't right him off after his first game. Unless they are grenners as that is his 1 trick

I said a bit like not the same as

"bit" not "same"

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Moore
Hyam Fadz Rose
Dabo Hamer Sheaf Maatsen
O'Hare
Walker Gyokeres​

Wilson, Dacosta, Pask/Drysdale, Allen, Jones, Bright, Waghorn

Think MR will pick Waghorn over Walker though.

Edgy game won by a single goal.

hard to disagree with this but can see Waghorn starting again based on walker playing full 90 last night

 

[ccfc1234]

Bench looks weak without Kelly and Godden. Few loans needed too.

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Think it’ll be tight. Think we’ll draw 1-1 but could go either way. Let’s hope the fans that are there get behind the team

 

[Liquid Gold]

Please just make your own thread

 

[vow]

2-1 City win.

Or the same people could not shit up every match thread whining about one post.

But there is inevitably someone that wants to know what it is, then someone takes the piss, then we get another explanation

 

[Marty]

0-0 bore draw.

 

[Alex1987]

Take a point...

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

The usual

Pray too God we don't get any more injuries.

Another win please.

 

[covcity4life]

Barnsley will be shitter than last year I imagine where's I expect us to be better.

So we will win obviously

Ah yes, the fabled system that ranked Biamou as our best striker across the whole season last year
