Bris Vegas Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Will Hughes made 6 tackles for Watford against Burnley, twice as many as any other Watford player. But he can't tackle according to some... Too lightweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Kenny Miller sacked as player/manager at Livingston after 2 games as he wouldn’t give up playing. We should have done the same, tried to claim a refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 11 hours ago, Boycie said: Hughes was a great tackler at Derby. Indeed he was. Only two players ever managed more tackles per game than Hughes at Derby. George Thorne and John Eustace. As it stands, no-one has made more tackles in the PL than him so far this season, he's made 6 in both games. Admittedly, that will go down as they play against more of the top teams but it's still a great stat for the here and now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistically, tackle stats get slammed against the good teams. They tend to lose the ball via interception, or it going out of play. Getting tackled is genuinely rare.

Day Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 Andi Weimann joint top scorer. Said this before last nights game.... Quote "I've said before, I'm finally playing through the middle again, where I think I can score goals. "Obviously getting goals in my first two games settled me down a little bit - I feel confident and even on Saturday I got into a few positions where I could have scored. "I'm getting into positions where I can score goals so I've just got to keep getting there to score a few more goals." https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/andreas-weimann-explains-return-goal-1919814 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gccrowdpleaser Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Does anyone remember if there was mention of a clause in the Will Hughes contract based on him playing for England. I hear that he'll be England squad announced for the game against Spain. That's assuming he comes through the weekend unscathed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derby seem to be getting quite cautious what they release about incomings. It took ages for them to announce they had got some money from Huddersfield staying up.

We were crying out for a technical tough attacking midfielder who could control games in the way Lingard or Alli can't do - hence being overrun by a decent midfield like Croatia's.
