Because it sounds better than 256th in the Premier League
15th I think. I used it myself as I wasn't sure of his position in the league. And it also makes it sound more impressive.
So when he keeps the ball moving and doesn't give it away he's "not making any risky passes", yet he created the 3rd most chances for an Englishmen, but then has his assists record criticised. You try passing the ball to Agbonlahor or Weimann. Criticising an assist record when creating so many chances is flawed logic.
I think a player who apparently always plays it safe yet creates so many chances from the deep-lying midfielder role is pretty bloody incredible, and not something to be criticised.
If we're going to play all of Sanchez, Westwood and Delph in the team, we need to keep KEA for cover. If Westwood is going to sit out, he's not needed as much. He's not a bad player, so happy for him to stay until somebody else can replace him.
Pretty much this - definitely true if two of the players ahead of this trio are Agbonlahor and Weimann. But it'd be interesting to see how Westwood and Delph play with a strong DM behind them, as they're two of the more creative guys in our squad, and could be useful going forward.
