Only if it’s O Hare - if it was the other way round it would be clever play by Allen (a player who has scored one goal a season in the championship) and another wasted shot from o hare
That was just a couple of examples.
But just to clarify, does a pass that creates a chance have to be over a certain distance now?
No, Allen created his own chance/space for a shot, a 5 yard pass in their half, doesn't constitute creating a chance. I'd expect Sunday league players to be able to do that.That was just a couple of examples.

What do you mean? O'Hare has by no means ever been a scapegoat in our shirt, he's does some good work, just when hes in the final 3rd he's awful.Only if it’s O Hare - if it was the other way round it would be clever play by Allen (a player who has scored one goal a season in the championship) and another wasted shot from o hare

'A 5 yard pass in their half doesnt constitute creating a chance'
I've read some nonsense on this forum but fuck me.
Fair enough, so you would class the 5 yard inside pass on the halfway line from Dabo to Walsh when he went on a mazy run and scored as Dabo creating a chance? The fact some people still try to defend O'Hare's ability in the final 3rd is nothing short of embarrassing. His workrate is brilliant all over the pitch is busy, and opens up space. On the ball in and around opposition penalty areas he is poor.'A 5 yard pass in their half doesnt constitute creating a chance'

There was also the infamous deleted one just before the goalGood shout
I'd say there probably is a difference to a statistical assist and actually creating a chance,The scenario you give is universally classed as an assist everywhere in football except your house by the sound of it.
And I've can't think of one post that's tried to defend O'Hares limitations in the final third, everyone acknowledges it.

We completely agree then.
I don’t mind sideways to create space if tempos right but we have a habit of playing the ball behind players who then have to slow down or check back

So if Dabo did not play the pass Walsh scores anyway?
Fair enough, you don't seem to be able to comprehend the difference between creating a clear goalscoring opportunity and a routine 5 yard pass 50 yards from goal. Stats don't lie I guess.Kelly didn't assist Godden against Bristol, ditto O'Hare for Vik against Fulham.
Agreed, I've obviously miss understood the massive involvement Dabo had in that goal.So if Dabo did not play the pass Walsh scores anyway?

Can you explain to me, what's so baffling?Oh dear.
Can you explain to me, what's so baffling?
Fair enough, it was closer than I thought, I thought Allen had done more. However were arguing over minor details, when we both agree that he's awful infront of goal, and lacks any real quality on the ball.For a start, O'Hares 5 yard ball wasn't 50 yards out.
And secondly, it's madness to suggest the ball he slipped through to Allen wasn't creating a chance.
As I said, you would have to apply the same logic to Kelly's assist against Bristol City, which again would be madness.

Three thoughts from abroad
For a bloke who cost £750k (I believe) when he was playing for Peterborough Reseves, we have had very good return on our investment in Godden over 3 years
I still remain very dubious that Jones will ever make it at this or any level, as I think he is just too physically fragile. But those clips from the U23 game earlier this week showed he still has very quick feet and today he provided an assist with a cross. So who knows?
We have a mid-table aquad that is flattering to deceive. This was an away point against a top half club. That is just fine.
Please tell me they didn't say thatThe sky commentators said 'i don't know where he has got 6 minutes from there have only been a few stoppages.' fucking lees wasted 6 minutes alone the two times he went down!
in my opinion those people who think O Hare should be replaced by Jones cant actually watch the games !
Took 3 hours to travel 60 miles by train.Am a bit thrown out for time now though. Have had more time than usual to do stuff after getting home, but it feels like the game was yesterday rather than earlier.
