Suggesting it's a form issue rather than a system one.

That's the total opposite of what it means :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Like explaining the wheel.

Guessand scored from a Mitchell pull back against Wolves. Sarr missed a sitter from a Mitchell cross against Mostar. Mitchell ranks in the 80th percentile of left backs for both chances creates and successful crosses this season. Munoz has amassed 3.35 xA this season, which ranks in the 97th...

Disingenuous, and rude as ever. You claimed our wing backs don’t play high up enough - that’s been completely disproved. The other poster has made a completely different claim: they do play high enough, but they just don’t create enough, which is certainly a more valid criticism. Don’t try...

The point I was contesting was one that suggested our wing backs do not play high up enough - I was simply disproving that. Mitchell set up the winner against Wolves.

Goals and assists is a pointless metric for assessing how far forward our wing backs play - you can just as easily point to Munoz’ output which was 6 goals, 8 assists last season - enormous for a defender. A much better measure of how high up our wing backs play would be something like the...

Sure, there are of course going to be exceptions depending on in-game situations, but on average our wing backs play incredibly high up the pitch, as evidenced by Mitchell’s heat map.

I disagree - I think our wing backs play really high up, especially when we have the ball - it’s a huge part of why we’re so vulnerable to transitions, and why that’s always so evident in games against low blocks. This is Mitchell’s heat map for this season which I think says it all.

I could be wrong, but I think Lacroix only has a 1 game ban for DOGSO - my understanding is that it's only 3 games if it's considered violent conduct. But regardless, if we're now talking a back four of Munoz Richards Riad Mitchell... that's really not selling it to me! Ripped apart sounds...

It seems to be a bit of an accepted reality on here that the players no longer fit Glasner's system, but I'm not sure I agree at all; Munoz - wing-back specialist. Seems far better suited to a wing-back role than a back four Richards - all of his best form for us has come as part of a back 3...

I think a lot of people are desperate for Esse to be better than he is because they think it will somehow vindicate them about Glasner or give them more ammo to ‘I told ya so’. As you say, in reality I think he’s just not up to standard yet.

It's interesting that after a considered post about a hugely varied number of alleged mistakes made by Parish/the board over the last year or two, the first two replies immediately start talking about Glasner. It's a very shallow analysis to ignore all of the evidence that we are completely out...

I'll take a yellow card to call you a rude tit who can barely manage to write full sentences. Use the ignore function you utter moron.

There's little data to suggest it does - the vast, vast majority of people who experiment with recreational drugs do so successfully, without escalation or addiction issues - much like with alcohol, there are a minority who struggle. I would also again make the point that the current status quo...

I think it’s a very valid consideration and in fact is generally the main consideration when we consider prohibition - we tend to ban things which risk serious harm to others (ie guns) and we tend to regulate things which poses a risk to the individual (drinking, gambling, smoking). ‘Drugs’ is...

The state has indeed managed to reduce smoking considerably over the last few decades, and they’ve done that through education rather than bans. The lesson there is that armed with appropriate information on risk and consequence, people will (on average) make reasonable decisions about what to...

I thought it's pretty clear we're specifically talking prohibition of recreational drugs - of course some things should be prohibited. Who fronts up to the families of the tens of thousands of people a year who die from drinking and smoking? If we include obesity-related illness, you're...

Same can be said of smokers, drinkers and the obese. I've never suggested any benefit to 'having a ton of drugs consumed every day' - that's a complete straw man. Drug dealers are a product of prohibition.

Bad batches are another argument in favour of legalisation, but that's around the point slightly. But also while I appreciate you have had a specific experience, it's an extreme minority of cases - millions of people take recreational drugs around the world and the overwhelming majority do so...

Interesting post, much of which I would agree with - certainly regular usage or a reliance on any substance is not something I would advise to anyone... and I do accept it's a slippery slope from casual usage into that. But much in the same way alcohol helps a lot of people to...
