You’d fucking hope so considering he’s a CB mostly playing short passes under no pressure.

Thomas had a 75% pass completion rate but attempted 15-20 more passes than the other 2 centre halves .
His season total is about 81%

Can you see the number of long passes from each? Got a theory he clears/sends it long more than the others. Possibly by instruction.

He makes 8.8 long passes per 90 compared to lati 5.6 and kitching 6.8
Binks is the highest with over 10

Surprised at the comments on BTA. He had ANOTHER good game in which he scored and provided an assist. I don’t think he’s an amazing player but he’s a little different and at the moment, it’s working.
He is constantly trying to get an early shot off, causing chaos with his running; midfielders and CB’s don’t have time to relax. He often loses the ball if he’s trying to do one touch stuff / play too fast and I don’t think he’s great at that, but it makes him hard to defend against.

No, let’s complain about a player that intentionally scored a goal from 40 yards out.

And assisted another , and worked tirelessly to force errors
He was our highest rated player yesterday on all the sites I've seen

Shouldn’t even have to mention that, he’d done enough with the goal.
I think I dislike players more when they have everything; all of the talent etc, but lack the application, desire and effort. The last three things win you more games than talent alone and BTA has them.

I was really happy BTA got a goal and assist yesterday, there were some right idiots behind me calling him shit constantly through the game.
Our MOTM, imo was Rudoni but BTA’s goal and assist isn’t to be underestimated.

Some say he's missed loads of sitters but has he ?

It’s only Norwich away where he missed a huge change. Other than that, there haven’t been many big chances missed.
Bassette and Simms have missed more chances. BTA has probably played less minutes overall and particularly less minutes as a striker.

There was a chance yesterday where the ball went slightly behind him and he tried to backheel it in and I thought he did the right thing but he got some pelters on here I saw later ..
Btw , I couldn't tell behind the goal did the keeper save that rudoni chance from point blank range

The second chance he had?
The defender deflected it over, I think. Hard to say if the keeper had it covered.

Thought that was more Rudoni’s miss if anything. In reality, it was some good defending and goalkeeping from Swansea.
That all said, I’ve not watched the replays of anything other than the goals.

Yeah that Thomas Asante chance where the cross was behind him really differentiated the people who played football vs the people who just watch.

Coventry City head coach Frank Lampard:
"It was an instinctive goal and probably nobody else in the stadium thought he would take it on. But he took it on and the quality of his technique and execution made it a very special goal. He deserves to have a big smile on his face after that."
...And so should all of us!!!

If he calmed himself down rather than being like a whirling dervish he would hold the ball better when in tight spots

The header? I think it was just too high for him to get a proper connection.

How shy is Ellis Simms! He really didn’t want to do the thing at the end of the match…and kinda had to when he came and gave his shirt to the lad.

I think it’s pretty obvious the players think it’s proper cringey.
