Can't believe we are discussing whether we do or don't want him.....get him in asap and get the dross out ffs.
Has anyone put that stat into any kind of context yet?I just saw a very telling stat on Twitter: From 99 subsitute appearances this season for Spurs they have returned a rather embarrassing 1 goal and 1 assist.
That right there epitomises both the problem, in terms of lack of quality depth/impact from the bench, but also how strong our first 11 is and whilst that's awesome, we MUST have players that can be an x factor off the bench. Someone we all feel excited about when they come on. ALL of the teams above us have that option and it's where we fall behind quite dramatically.

In isolation it doesn't really mean anything.
Context mate, as in how it compares to other managers.

Its as if he did not watch the match:
At least you're not jumping to conclusions.I hadn't read it yet, posted it before reading. My bad. Not aware of how it compares but doubt it's overly favourable.

Or - it could show that Poch does a great job in picking the starting XI....It doesn't take an expert to recognise that 1 goal and 1 assist from 99 substitute appearances in bad.
You've just assumed that it doesn't compare favourably, without anything to compare it to.Oh jeez....not jumping to any conclusions.
It doesn't take an expert to recognise that 1 goal and 1 assist from 99 substitute appearances is bad. I was merely trying to point out that we need a player who can offer an impact and hopefully Malcom would be that player.
No need to be a bit of a dick about it.

That's the definition of jumping to a conclusion mate.
What the fuck has this got to do with malcom?Sissoko says hi
Mate, its SC. You cant criticize Poch on here without people thinking you want him sacked. The love affair most on here has for Poch has spun wildly out of control.Don't think anyone really disputes that though do they? Aside from BC of course.
I think both you and Gb160 are getting super defensive over Poch like I'm trying to smear his abilities as a manager. I'm most definitely not. I'm trying to support the idea that we need better quality coming off our bench and that stat does support it.
To suggest the stat on it's own means nothing isn't fair, after all, wouldn't you have hoped that our subs could have provided more than 1 goal and 1 assist from 99 appearances? I appreciate it would be good to have the comparison with our teams but I don't have it.
