    Match Ratings Ratings vs Juventus

    this game could easily have gone either way, some of the personal criticism of players in this instance is actually ludicrous.

    Transfer Forums - suggestions and feedback

    Appreciate it's what drives interest but an ITK cull wouldn't go amiss. There is some utter nonsense out there and people literally so far down the food chain it's irrelevant, or relying on past glories, or even as I saw yesterday quoting an Igijedi post to say something is done? I mean give me...

    The whole "not for RO" thing is a bit daft. If you publish info on here it's in the public domain. Any interested party will see it. Send it through the goat if it's so sensitive but then you don't get the glory... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Poch historically says fuck all about transfers If all this "3 or 4 more" stuff isn't him challenging his boss, i'd be surprised.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 19th August 2017

    Should we be impressed with a 40m deal for a fairly raw Eredivisie CB? It's hard to tell, but Sanchez was touted for bigger clubs at the start of the summer. Also our talent identification used to be great; Bale, Modric, Alli, Dier, Eriksen etc etc then has been weak the last couple of years...

    Davinson Sanchez

    specifically centre backs are hard to identify reliably via stats, other positions not so much, but sure team effects are obviously real and need considering. The trouble with CBs is trying to apportion some kind of weight to their contribution in the form of goals. So for attackers that's...

    Davinson Sanchez

    like I say, stats and centre backs are not cosy bedfellows. so much depends on the systems they play in. I would be suspicious of anyone making wild proclamations on centre back based on stats.

    Davinson Sanchez

    Honestly no idea. You probably know more than me, but he seems well rated, and i'd be broadly encouraged that this is the type of signing we are looking at.

    Davinson Sanchez

    Tom Collomosse is a reputable journo, so y'know, i'd take that over ITK any time here

    It depends on expectation. If anyone (or indeed the club) is looking at these two and thinking "their goal record looks tasty" then the bottom line is that it's likely deceptive. Other aspects of their play outside of goalscoring may appeal for different reasons

    Josh King

    Just to bounce off this, for expected goals I had King with 14 Non penalty goals from 8.6 expected. I get Keita at 14 NPGs from an expectation of 6.8! That's nuts. For defined big chances (which are generally converted at a rate of about 40%) Keita was 8/9 last year after going 2/15 in the two...

    Josh King

    shots per goal is a hugely fluctuating stat and not really worth putting much stock into. I wrote a big thing on King and stats recently if you want a slightly more advanced version: http://statsbomb.com/2017/07/joshua-king-and-the-hot-foot/ won't be everyone's cup of tea but one thing is...
