Now I am happy to be proved wrong on this, but I calculate that AA's goals have earned us 10 points this season. Deduct those from our league total, and we're 2 points off the drop i.e. exactly where we were last season, looking over our shoulders.
So if it hadn't been for a great signing for the first half of the season, we'd have stood still all year from where we were last term. Makes you wonder how much progress we'll make next season if so much is dependent on getting a loannee who can bang in 20 goals a year.
If Barcelona didn't get lucky with Messi......Neither of you think it's at all worrying that without getting very lucky with one excellent loan player, we'd be in exactly the same plight as last season?

most ridiculous thread ever
I can also say that without a goalkeeper , we would have zero points!
No but let's assume for a moment that
A) we'd have been passing to the alternatives this season e.g. Henderson, Fortune, Tudgay, LEF ; or
B) we'd have been passing to the likes of Simeon Jackson, Chba Akpom, Steve Elliot, Josh McQuoid etc
The underlying assumption is that we got massively lucky with AA, a real gold nugget, and without the random bit of fortune we'd be down amongst the dead men..
Sometimes it really is painful to have to spend time sitting here spelling it out for you all.
I was kinda with the masses on this one but now you've fleshed it out with the alternatives, bar a direct replacement, then hell yes I agree.No but let's assume for a moment that

Yep. Spot on.The pain you feel is because you're trying to get people to agree with something that has no logical basis. If you remove something from the past, it doesn't mean everything else around it would have stayed the same, it's the complete opposite of that.
