  1. Awful performance in the first half. Slow and predictable going forward, invisible in midfield, and all over the shop at the back. A little better second half, but still nowhere near good enough.

     

    I've no doubt we'll play better in the coming months, but I'm fairly certain we'll have a few more games like this, too. 4th is gonna be a real struggle if we don't bring in some fresh legs in midfield.

    He's probably sacked the people who actually ran it.

    Got rid of a good chunk of the DevOps/Site Reliability Engineers early on. As someone who works in a similar space, I cannot begin to tell you how mental that is.

    Shots on target is the one with Haaland, if your shots not on target you have an almost 0% chance of scoring (deflections/balloons/beach balls aside) and he's so consistent at doing it.

     

    In the last 4 seasons (including this part season) he's been less than 50% only once when it was an abnormally low 42%).

     

    Kane - hit 52% in one season but every other season has been mid to low 40's*

     

    Salah - Never been above 50%*

     

    Nunez - Never been above 50%*

     

    Ronaldo - never been above 50%*

     

    Messi - Above 50% once.*

     

    *for as long as FBREF have been recording the stats on that player.

     

    His shooting is accurate, too, for sure.

    Just watched an interview that Mølby did with Haaland.

     

    Nunez should listen to the stuff about offsides, basics obviously, but need focus. 

     

    In short he focuses a lot on not getting caught offside.

     

    1. Because he is so fast he will get there first anyway. (Same applies for Nunez)

    2. You cant score when you are offside after VAR. 
     

    Haalands focus truly is something else, everyone should try and look at this interview. 

    The thing that stands out most for me with Haaland is his positioning, especially in the box. The mfer is just always in the right position to get on the end of a cross, or pounce on a rebound. Not sure if that can be taught, tbh.

     

    Where's the interview, by the way?

    which kind of shows what a fucking basket case of a country this is,when the party with the best policies,gets wiped out.

    Well indeed. And maybe it'd be worth considering why things that are very popular with the electorate, such as more public ownership of utilities, won't be on offer from any of the major parties. And then from there consider whose interests are actually being served by these total fucking arseholes.

    Corbyn's Labour was full of cunts too, they were just better at disguising it. Get you ostracised from a CLP because they don't like your trainers then share a solidarity post on Facebook with the people's front of Mozambique.

    Never saw anything like that between 2015 and 2019. Neither did my dad, who's been heavily involved in campaigning for over 40 years. In fact the only remark he ever made about the Corbyn years was that there were a lot more younger folk at his local CLP.

     

    Regardless, you're comparing people with power (the people running the party) behaving terribly, and members of a particular CLP. So, not really very useful.
