Kiwivillan Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Why do people want player that plays in formation we won't play, is only 4th for tackles per game in his team and puts him 7th best compared to tackles per game in Villa squad?

This stats always annoys me, if your playing in a team higher in the league I would assume by having majority of possession you would therefore tackle less? I could be completely wrong, only looking at this by logic but I don't really look at stats so for all u know a city player maybe to in our league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet he'd be 5th 4th and 8th for tackles per game in City, Pool, Chelsea squads respectively 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the you tube videos you see him winning the ball on some occations in different games and making a pass, but from what I've seen there is nothing that stands out, no special skill at all, just compiliations of him winning a ball in different games, you could put together a video like that of any player. No ones ever seen him play, but here are the reasons why he'd be a great signing 1) Football Manager Wonderkid 2) His fans dont hate him and actually love him 3) He wanted by all the big teams 4) Actually a number 6 5) Young with massive potential 6) He doesn't have a nickname like 'The Thin One' 7) Can cover the CB position 8 ) Cheap due to his contract having 6 months left Edited January 26, 2022 by messi11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not trying to be an arse about this, just that top 100 in a stat in a league is nothing special P.P.S. Also highlights madness of people talking about Mcginn is surplus to our needs Are u comparing rankings of Villa players within the Villa squad against players and their rankings in the French league? Is that not like comparing apples and oranges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcginn 2.9 tackles per game is =6th for all players in PL. It would be =5th in Ligue 1. Kamara 1.5 tackles per game is =95th in Ligue 1 in PL would be =105th. Dennis the forward from Watford and Raphina make more tackles per game on 1.6 Edited January 27, 2022 by Kiwivillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
