Put simply, the players topping our "passes per 90" are all defenders except for Partey. And everyone forward of Partey is accountable for generating and finishing chances, not recycling the ball. And of course White and Zinchenko also participate heavily in our build-up.

I bet we see very different numbers if we go back prior to the squad overturn of the summer before last.

    Burnwinter central defenders of almost every team top their pass %, DMs too but its just the way that stat goes. Its just easier to pass the ball in your own half. Our central defender do it well compared to other defences though. I think they move it much more quickly than they used to and make less major errors on the ball compared to Luiz, Mustafi, etc

      Never watched that film so no clue who Spiers is, actually thought he said Spurs 🤣

      But yeah the Xhaka was hilarious. Where is the Xhaka yellow card when you need him.

      Edit: Lakonga and Airpods looooooool.

        Big Willie But yeah the Xhaka was hilarious. Where is the Xhaka yellow card when you need him.

        I love that Xhaka's name is the only one in yellow.

          Pepe LeFrits exactly. I was looking for the name with the yellow card image but didn't realise how to do it.

          😆 Brilliant!

          Big Willie It's an HBO mini-series(10 episodes, about hour each) called Band of Brothers. It's absolutely brilliant! Definitely recommend if you haven't seen it yet. For me, it's certainly among the best TV series ever made.

          Lakonga and Holding 🤣🤣

          Lol. Yep Band of Brothers is wonderful. Thoroughly recommend.

          Charged over the handball appeal, which is hilarious.

          We're obviously the only club that appeals for anything. I'd hope we keep doing it but I think on the pitch I reckon it's counter productive.

          Do I misunderstand or do you think it's counter productive but still hope we keep doing it?

          • goon replied to this.

            We should keep doing it. Fuck the FA. Every club does it but only we get penalize for it

            But unless some moral stand is more important than us winning games, we should only do it if it works.

            Other way around. I want to keep doing it to spite the FA but don't think we should because it's counter productive. We need to be a bit smarter and use one or two players to protest so make the point without making referees/VAT stubborn or vindictive. I also think we inadvertently wasted a bit of time ourselves against Newcastle by protesting everything.
