cannable Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 let's just focus on the cold hard stats...Eustace: Apps - 20(4) goals - 0 assists - 0 Yellow - 8 Red - 0 Shots per game - 0.3 Pass acc % - 78Aerial battles won per game - 2.6 Tackles per game - 1.9 interceptions - 1.5 fouls - 1.8 clearances - 1.7 dribbled past - 1 blocked shots 0.3 chances created - 0.3 avg passes - 37.2Thorne: Apps - 8 goals - 0 assists - 1yellow - 1shots per game 0.5pass acc - 80.2 aerial battles won - 2.5Tackles - 3.3 interceptions - 1.9 fouls - 0.6clearances - 2.4dribbled past - 0.8blocked shots - 0.4chances created - 0.8avg passes - 64.3 Conclusive? Inconclusive. These stats don't account for the fact that we'll have been more dominant in games than Watford, therefor less work required for Eustace compared to Thorne.

San Fran Van Rams Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Owen Bradley @OwenBradley 10s Steve McClaren confirms the signing of George Thorne on loan from WBA til the end of the season. #dcfcfans Happy with this signing. We were crying out for an additional CDM and Thorne will provide great competition for Eustace for the remainder of the season. He's also another player that, if we go up, could potentially become a permanent signing. It'll be interesting to see who plays on Saturday, I'd imagine Eustace will start with Thorne coming on sometime during the second half. Looking at it another way, he should fit straight into the squad if and when Eustace picks up his 10th yellow card too so we wont be needing Jeff to fill in the gap...

Mafiabob Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I think you will see James Bailey leave and also see Paul Coutts going out on loan once back from injury to get some game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram@Lincoln Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Now means that Hendrick can play one of the Hughes/Bryson role when they get a rest with this new fella fitting in behind. Perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Where is Bavies? Isnt Coutts due back in Jan / Feb last I heard? Bavies - completely frozen out. Wouldnt be suprised to see him move in the next 24 hours. Coutts - think it's end of Feb return? not sure. Happy with Thorne though. Smart move by SMc.

Curtains Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 fantastic news just fantastic just fantastic. Now Eustace doesn't have to play every game. PS Fantastic news. Well done DCFC. PS Just Fantabidoso.I'm just pointing out that we have signed a very good player who I believe played in the same u19 England side as Wisdom and Bamford which means that Eustace can be taken out the firing line now and again which I'm very happy about. Opps should have replied that to maza233. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Good stuff. Eustace has needed some support we can now play whichever of the two suits the opposition we face. This also give us extra cover for Hughes and Bryson. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Inconclusive. These stats don't account for the fact that we'll have been more dominant in games than Watford, therefor less work required for Eustace compared to Thorne. Prepared to be shocked... Watford have had more shots than us(and on target)... had very similar possession stats... a better pass completion stat but have made 2000 less passes. So it's not a huge gap, we play very similar football - I guarantee that Thorne will carry on in a similar vein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
