Ghost of Clough

For some reason I have the sudden urge to have a beer battered fish

Nah, I'll have a 7up instead and prove that it's a load of nonsense as we won't be 7up by half time.

Minutes per assist
Mendez-Laing - 312
Hourihane - 371
McGoldrick - 410
Dobbin - 417

Am impressive result considering we had an U16(?) CB partnered with a CM, and an U16 CM infront of them. Three U16s came off the bench too.

I do. But you're too late. I've already been officially given the title of "Number one fan"

@Owen87ITK How much did you pay for this topic?
I would have wrote it for you for half the price 😂.

31 goal contributions in 42 games (2872 minutes).
92 minutes per goal contribution.
At least 1 goal contribution in 19 games, with 18 of those coming in his 31 starts.
7 goal contributions in his 16 games against top half opponents (12 starts)

Damn, thats put a spanner in the works of proving his numbers are flawed.
How about if all of the goal contributions that happened in midweek matches are removed?
Must be some way we can make his excellent stats look flawed!

Administration doesn't 'reset' P&S, only failing P&S 'resets' the P&S figures.

I'd imagine most teams have won more games against the bottom 4. That's why they're in the bottom 4.

I wasn't convinced by the shape last night. We lacked control in the middle for large periods of time, McGoldrick seemed isolated and we didn't get much from Mendez-Laing in the first half who was too narrow and was playing as a link up man rather than a fast attacker.
However, 2nd half you could see the improvement once the goal went in and confidence increased. Bird and Hourihane had a greater control of the game, McGoldrick, Mendez-Laing and Sibley were linking together much better and were finding space to run in to.
I think 343 makes better use of our squad, with McGoldrick, Mendez-Laing, Sibley, Collins, Barkhuizen and Dobbin being options for the front 3 positions, rather than just McGoldrick, Collins and Dobbin in a 352

Thanks, GOC. 
I can't understand the posters who are quick to jump on Sibley's control as a reason to drop him from the team because the stats just don't back them up.
Those quick little interplays were at the heart of all our good moves first half. And as for criticising him for shooting, we're quick to criticise those who don't! 
I personally think that team deserves another start on Saturday. As Bird said, they'd had very little time to practise. 
The subs were made at the right time and brought on fresh legs to defend what we'd created. 
I'm quick to criticise Warne when the subs don't work, so need to praise him when they do.
 

That was the foul when McGoldrick's first touch knocked it past the CB, then the CB held him back because he was never going to recover

Love the commentary from the home fan in the background. ‘Never a free kick in a million years’ . Must have good eyesight, given where he was sitting

Sorry but your post loses a little credibility at this point. Watching the match live didnt hear a sound from home fans whilst Derby fans were very loud and proud all match but yes guess must be acoustics
