If you're worried about your knees, wouldn't swimming be a better shout?

I misspoke (misstyped?) It's Paqueta that's created more chances for shots and goals, and it's Paqueta that's played the final ball for shots that stand a slightly better chance of going in.

Dunno, stats don't show the whole picture. e.g. Henderson is a young 'keeper and hasn't played a lot. Sheffield United were anomalous and Man Utd are a basket case and have been for a while. But going off FBRef, he's not an upgrade, certainly not worth £40m!

Up there is "Expected Assists" per90 which Paqueta 'wins' (0.2 v ASM's 0.17) Below is the shot and goal creating actions per 90. In that Paqueta regard does create more shot and goal opportunities, but as per above, ASM's been creating better quality final balls.

Going off the recorded stats alone, it's nearly identical short and medium range, but Dubravka is better at long range.

Yep. However his expected assist return (0.17) isn't massively better than ASM's (0.2). Now, that could be because of the way Lyon play, the way ASM was played under Bruce (freedom of the pitch), the caliber of striker ASM has had to endure this season, etc.

Howay Gloomy man, it's all pretty straight forward. Per 90 how many passes are completed, attempted, %, distance of passes. Then broken down into short medium and long range passing. The final box is pretty pointless, but it's; assists, xA, xA less actual assists, Key Passes, passes into final 3rd, passes into penalty area, crosses and progressive passes (disregards passes from defensive 3rd)

You think JosieAnn is a bloke? C'mon Rayvin man, she's even got a picture of her meeting Quinn (is he still Quinny, or has he lost his y and all?)

Goals, Assists, Goals less Penalties, xG and xA per 90 minutes Tackles, Tackles won, Tackles attempted in Def, Mid and Attacking 3rds, Blocks, Interceptions and Clearances per 90 Pressures attempted, Successful Pressures, and where the pressures were attempted per 90 Total yards ball carried and yds progressed per 90 Dribbles attempted and succeeded, number of players dribbled past(#Pl) and number of nutmegs per 90 All data from FBRef

Makes me wonder why he was such a cunt on here then? Honestly, the amount of vindictive abuse he peppered around was unreal, all couched in "If I wasn't a nice guy I'd call you the fattest/ugliest/stupidest cunt there's ever been. It's just a statistical fact that 85% of people from Jesmond are cunts" etc. He definitely couldn't take a joke on here, was a small minded bigot and he definitely fancied himself a hard-as-fuck, uber-Geordie. So if he's a lovely fella normally, was this all an act that he really committed to?

Craig Craig Craig, I know you like watching things go round in circles, pointlessly, for hours, but I'm not doing that with you on this, not today. I had to explain the simple joke because it went so far over your head it came down with snow on. So, you've embarrassed yourself again, you're done.

... I know. If you're apologising for me, that means I don't have to apologise for me. Jesus Christ, Craig. I mean Jesus fucking Christ.

She's still going

Good, if you're apologising that means I don't have to and can keep doing the do.

Still waiting for my apology.

Yep

When do 'paradigm breaking' upstarts like GBNews, TalkTv and their ilk just become another arm of the MSM for the howl at the moon morons, who beg for all that kind of shite?

Steady now, we've seen what Howe can do with previously shit players like Joelinton, Krafth, Shelvey etc. Lewis has youth on his side too.

I've linked to a specific part of the video, Nerdlinger

What a great example he's set to other players too. He was the butt of so many jokes from the fans, but he's played his way back into our good books and is now the fans' player of the year? There's no reason why other players can't at least get us back on their side if they only put in the hard yards.

This kid is close to tears. It's wonderful, just delicious.

Aye, If they were at home against Brentford I'd fancy them to survive, but, honestly? I think Brentford will want to finish as high as possible, see their fans off happy and bloody the nose of a famous old club. I don't think Everton will get a result on the final day, but I'm not Gemmil enough to think it will matter.
