Fadz will but I don’t think he’ll be in the starting line up after a few weeks

Coventry’s passing is amazing. It’s very quick.

Think we’ll get loan ST, CB and WB who will go straight in. Just got a feeling.

Simms needs someone a bit more dynamic up front with him for sure.

Just like all Gyokeres's goals. Just a team effort.

If you can't see that the number of goals a keeper concedes is closely correlated to the strength of the defence then there will likely be no convincing you. A much more statistically significant metric for a goalkeepers performance over the golden glove is save percentage - in which he finished 6th in the championship.

Although as a stat that can also be misleading as if the defence is strong and they force the opposition into long shots, the xG per shot would be significantly lower. Last season we had an xG against of 1.4 compared to our 0.96 actual conceded meaning a ~+20% stronger performance than would be expected. This places him... 6th overall in the championship last season also.

In summary, golden glove is nice and all but it is seldom awarded to the best keeper in the league.

I swear pre season never matches the season. I’m sure we were alright last year and started terribly and the opposite the year before. May be making things up tho.

Interested to hear robins about Ben wilson
You know my lad kept saying he’s not as bad as you think dad
If he does get a move to a premier league team even for 1 season what an opportunity and who’s to say he doesn’t deserve it for his improvement and general loveliness

So, just to confirm, that's an assist and a goal from two really poor attacking wingbacks?

Fadz gave a penalty away within 1min
