TRO Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 30 minutes ago, MrBlack said: Nakamba's offensive stats . But you raise a valid point. Luiz's stats are truly terrible and back up the widely held opinion thatĀ he's had a poor season. He was definitely better post covid the season before. I think there's a player in there that needs a rest. Sanson has massive potential. McGinn makes a better outlet for a defensive pivot partner. He has an eye for a pass, the ability to turnĀ into space,Ā and carries the ball very well...but a defensive mid enforcer he is not. Nakamba and McGinn or Nakamba and Sanson seem to be the best balanced double pivot options we have. bang on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eidolon Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 I'm actually more excited to see Sanson fit and firing than anyone in the squad other than Beundia, I think he really has the potential to get us ticking along through the middle and keep our shape a bit better than we have at times. I know it's a cliche but he is basically like a new signingĀ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKP90 Posted August 7, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 7, 2021 11 hours ago, MaVilla said: Something i found really interesting comparing data for Sanson & McGinn, is for all the perceived aura around McGinn pressing and harrying a lot, the stats dont back it up, McGinn is actually bang average in terms of pressing, where as Sanson is in th 99th percentile for presses. McGinns defensive stats are actually pretty rubbish. Also, look at both of them in comparison to Luiz & Nakamba. Sanson and Nakamba as our DMs then in a (sorry) double pivot against the stronger teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
