by the way, having now checked this stat I’m not sure how you can take anything from it….
Ben Sheaf In - W11, D8, L10
Ben Sheaf Out - W6, D5, L4
So this season (roughly)…
we’ve won over a third of games with him in, and over a third with him out
and we’ve lost a third with him in, and a...
someone’s opinion is always ‘clouded by’ personal opinion you plonker, that’s why it’s a personal opinion….
my point (which I’d hardly call a petulant outburst, but whatever) is that most stats don’t really give a true picture and if you rely on one stat to show something it’s more likely than...
not sure, suggests city because of the badge but it could well be all clubs
I’m assuming you’ve not read the posts on this thread regarding ‘stats’ then…
no, realistically you can find a good or a bad stat about anything
individual player stats don’t tend to lie, and that’s probably the only real metric of a player’s performance, game by game and throughout the season, but if you can’t see how good the player is by watching him this season...
check what? I’m not saying the stat is made up, I’m saying that it’s a nonsense to say that Sheaf is bad based on what was quoted, whether true or not it doesn’t really make a difference
The arguments are 1) you can see how good he is, defensively, attack wise, breaking play up, passing range, even an eye for goal every now and again,
2) he is one of the best, if not (and at one stage this season THE best) midfielders in the league - the stats say so, not me,
3) there are 10...
whether it’s an actual stat or a made up stat, it’s nonsense - I don’t need to cross check it to tell you that much….
I’m also not sure what your argument is here, are you saying he should prove it’s a fact, or are you saying the stat means Ben Sheaf is shit?
ok hang on, so Sheaf is shit because when he plays we lose, so it must be his fault (and nothing to do with the other 10 players on the pitch) and when he doesn’t play we win so the player playing instead of him (and not the other 10 players on the pitch) won the game for us 🤔
you’re talking nonsense, if you can’t see Sheaf is our best midfielder, head and shoulders above anyone else, and I’d go so far as to say possibly our best and most valuable asset, then you need to have a word with yourself….
and if the only thing you’re relying on is some nonsense stat you’ve...
