[Pancho Regan]

Crew's major problem is he's very one footed. He was caught out several times trying to get it on his right foot.

Disagree.

He played several balls with his left which found their intended target.

He can’t have done that because someone on here said he only made 8 passes in 77 minutes

Ah yes, silly me.

I must check my data more thoroughly in future.

[GazLaz]

8 accurate passes. One with his left foot which was a 3 yard ball that gives no indication at all how good he is with his weaker foot.

[ncRover]

The best midfielder today had number 27 on the back of his red and white shirt, he going to be some player in a couple of years time.

I think they did a decent job stopping Crew. Did some good defensive work but didn’t really affect the game on the ball.

Not sure what you were watching, he ran that midfield, him and Kelly were superb

Just had a look at the stats and it kind of confirms what I thought. 8 accurate passes in his 77mins. Thought Bailey and Kelly were better than him today.

I agree with this 100% just from being at the game.

Kelly was the pick of the three, Bailey did some dirty work and is getting better again now. Clark did a few bits but was a quiet game for him. Clearly guna be a top player though.

That said I was concerned when we took him and Kelly off at the same time.

Broadbent is a safe player to help see a game out he’s done a good job at that in the last 2 games.

I’ve just had a look at the bbc website stats for our match and it says that in the whole game the team made 302 passes.
For one of our midfielders to only make 8 passes in 77 minutes does sound very low doesn’t it but I’m not contesting what has been said as the person (was it Gazlaz) who said it will has evidence to back up his information.

188 accurate of the 302. We tend to build up our wide, not through the center too.

He attempted 15 of that 302 but 8 of them were completed.

I would think then that Olowu and McGrath would have the highest number of attempted and completed passes given how many times we play across the back line.
Sterry probably has nigh numbers too.
Do you have the figures for them please.

If you download a scores app such as FotMob (the best IMO), Flashscore or Sofascore it gives you a breakdown of each player’s performances.

Is this tread still about Dan Cowley or off topic?

[drfchound]

It might be leading up to Crowley passing stats ………

[Lesonthewest]

Could be wrong but I saw him misplace a pass only once all afternoon. Excellent performance from him.

It looks like he failed With 14 passes then Les 

[Draytonian III]

He must be used to passing a lot , passing from one team to another . 13 clubs in 11 seasons

Ha ha, he's sh-te really then! No wonder he's had so many clubs

[IDM]

8 accurate passes. One with his left foot which was a 3 yard ball that gives no indication at all how good he is with his weaker foot.

I wasn’t at this game so can’t comment directly on an individual player’s performance.

However, looking at stats, is data collected for how many times a midfielder prevents an opponent’s pass being attempted, by good marking and breaking up an attack?  Or how many times a player’s presence takes the opponent’s attention such that a team mate has more space to make a run, receive a pass etc?  All kinds of contributions to a great team performance and result just probably can’t/don’t get analysed, but make a big difference to the fan experience and enjoyment.

Yes data analysis is good for coaches etc, and that’s why there’s a market for it.  But to us fans, if one of our clearly decent players with great prospects, has low ish passing stats within a fantastic team performance and victory, who really gives a toss - outside of the management staff and players.??

Yes, exactly IDM.   A player can make a big difference by not even touching the ball can’t he.
I often mention someone maybe stepping over a cross to wrong foot a defender and leave a team mate with a tap in or simply moving into a space and calling for a pass to offer an option which distracts the opponent and frees up someone else.
I don’t think there will be stats to cover things like that.

[Draytonian III]

8 passes in 77 minutes, is that passes over a certain distance, because if not I find it very surprising to say the least

In the recent Barrow programme and I quote.
 “ In his recent appearance against Harrogate, he impressed throughout, winning 89% of his ground duels and achieving 53 touches in the game with in the final third.”  As I’ve said before pass can be 1 yard or 71 yards, David Batty made a career of playing simple football
