Quote whatever stats you want, sometimes you have to watch games, not play FM in your latex boxers, drinking Diamond White scratching your nutssuddenly thinking you're Pep. Souare is not great defensively but is very good attacking. We don't play with Wing Backs remember. Also on previous posts I have made it clear Souare should be at best back up when he returns even if he is at 100%. Improvement across the pitch is what's required.


Call me whatever names you want. Fact is Souare has provided 1 assist in 4.000 minutes, van Aanholt has provided 12 goals and assists in a similar amount of time. That's more that 10x more. How the f*** could you say that van Aanholt is "almost as good as Souare in the offensive"?

Suare is not "great" offensively. It's not because I think I'm Pep. You're just so incompetent when it comes to football that you can't even evaluate players properly. You have no idea what this sport is made of, even though you have the audacity to act as if you do.

Again, it's not something I say: look at the f****ing facts. Statistics don't lie

Matteo you think you know more than anyone else but your'e deluded.

Real Madrid players and unknown full backs from Germany that you seem to somehow know are available and exactly how much for...

You start off by using stats to base your argument on, and then end with wild assumptions on the cost and availability of said players.

It is you that doesn't understand football...you are just another one of those typical fans who sees every player transfer in the most simplistic way.

I love the way you say that and then recite statistics as though they were the only way to evaluate performance. How about errm watching a game and seeing which players look skilful, hard-working and part of a team? Statistics are worth even less than normally when players are knackered, playing in the wrong positions and have been Pardewed so you have to look beyond them. I'm not very good at that and apparently neither are you. It's what we pay Sam £xm per year for.

Who is this 'matteo' chump and why does he think he knows more than everyone else? I'd like to know how much coaching experience you have because you are clearly better than the rest of us at rating players.

Nothing wrong with Footy Manager mate!

 

Yannick Bolasie - Glenn Murray - Wilfried Zaha

Most exciting attacking trio at Selhurst Park in years.

Hope this happens. Much better option than Schlupp and cheaper. Plus has worked with Sam before.

It's just an opinion, mate. Of course I think MY opinion is the right one. I mean....doesn't everybody?

I'm all about watching players beyond statistics. I only talk about players I've watched.

But when you have a debate about who is better offensively, van Aanholt o Souare and the first has provided like 12 assists while the latter only 1 in a similar amount of time, then it's just normal to shove the statistics down the throat of the one who is still blind.

I mean it's not a 3 to 1 or 6 to 1 or even 10 to 1 difference.
It's 12 to 1 in favour of van Aanholt.
