Popular Post peggyowl Posted February 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2021 key passes what a load of codswallop. I'm sorry Bannan in ineffectual. He passes backwards and side ways more than forwards. He isn't the solution to our problem. yes he needs the players around him but he has been the problem for a lomng time. His delivery from set pieces is shocking. Corners awful and his goal return for a midfielder is pants. 12 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the absolutely garbage players brought in to replace good players around him? The club is the problem for not putting the right players around him. We could sign Son from Spurs, if all we did was lumped the ball to his head and played him as a lone striker, you'd probably be slamming him for not being effective enough and needing players around him. If Bannan is ineffectual, I would love to hear what your analysis of the players around him that arent the problem bring to the table instead. Regarding set plays, its not his fault we replaced the likes of FF and Wallace with no one capable of taking a set play.

Ozymandias Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 So, up there at the top with key passes, which is the same as an assist but the next guy fizzed it up. Tells us all what we already know, our forwards are as much use as mudflaps on a tortoise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

83owl Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I know there’s different theories on if Bannan is being told to play the “deep lying playmaker” role or if he is simply doing it himself but he needs to be further forward. We aren’t scoring goals, especially not from open play and one of the reasons is that we can’t sustain any pressure on our opponents. Bannan is the best player we have at taking the ball under pressure, he’s the one player we want on the ball 30-40 yards out from their goal instead of ours. Until we can start getting him on the ball in these positions it’s going to be more of the same pointless hoofs upfront to a non existent target man. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, should have scored or an amazing save perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I am not surprised Bannans stats are good. He’s a good Championship level player and gets absolutely loads and loads of the ball in this side. But when you then see that Brown is in the top 20 it immediately makes me think the stats that are being measured can’t possibly be telling us much because he’s been absolutely throw since the first two games of the season! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m actually dying to see Brown start at least one game soon just to see what happens. If he’s shizz we’ve got five subs so can always haul him off again! Maybe he can do another pass resulting in a goal and move into the top 10 performers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emilianenko Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Playing three yard one twos with our defenders then laying it back to the keeper to hoof will give him great possession stats , but it’s totally ineffective.Wake up. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 So if bannan passes to a player whose 40 yards out from goal and player has a shot That would give bannan a tally on 'key pass' Stats only tell you what you wanna believe 'this weekend John Smith had a 100% pass ratio' What they don't tell you is he passed it straight back to the goalkeeper everytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
