Title: Creativity
Post by: DonnyOsmond on October 06, 2019, 12:10:21 pm
Theres a guy on Twitter called Ben Mayhew who produces some graphs every week based on League One data, such as shots taken, scored from, etc.

We are creating the most shots in the league. The downside is, the quality of the shots isn't great.

We're also pretty solid at the back despite having played most of the better teams already.

We all know what this team needs and it'll turn into a top 6, maybe even top 2 team.

He also does timeline graphs based on expected goal data. By the quality of the chances we created we should have won yesterday by a score somewhere around 3-1.

We are a very creative side, in the past we’ve had sides that don’t create much.
It’s just blatantly obvious what we’re missing and has been for months

Instead of moaning at the board tell us who we should sign, how much we should pay in wages and we can all have a good laugh.
Another very constructive post as usual elmsall.

Didn’t we have 2 bids accepted for strikers in August/ September and neither were signed?

This sort of contradicts what you’re saying, IDM!

It doesn't atall, why would it, we can't force players to accept the terms we offer them personally, as DM said time and again as I recall, the hard part is agreeing personal terms with the players themselves once a club agree a fee.

Seen as we don’t know what the hold ups were, no, it doesn’t..

And of course some people choose to read that as "we've offered peanuts".
