Match Ratings Ratings vs Newport County (Part 2)

incidentally, why do you think Poch keeps picking him?out of spite? Or because he sees something you don’t?

Or because he requested we spend 30m plus 18m wages on him ? I'm not sure what Poch is seeing that I'm not, I am just surprised he's not seeing what I am.

I’m not sure of his reasons, but I'm certainly taking it as personal spite against me.

That's why he is manager and you and I are not head coach and dof I guess. One day I hope this travesty of justice will be addressed. Ps. Agree with your sentiments re: youth players btw. Just don't think there's the mentality (in the widest possible sense) in epl to pursue this to the degree some of us would like. We do appear to be doing a better job that most though.

I would like to see Sissoko at Goals. Would he run rings around normal punters? When I was younger, Victor Moses played with a load of us and he was actually turd, but suppose he phoned it in.

Mentioned this before but I played with KWP at Goals last year; his fitness was laughably good compared to everyone else.
He's much more skilful than I'd have ever imagined, but probably not too surprising, given he doesn't have to be disciplined positionally and fucking up with a bunch of idiots during 7-a-side isn't going to lead to thousands of people abusing you on Twitter.

Whats with this "the majority is picking this guy so im picking another guy" thing?

It is more that every game Lamela plays, a group of posters vote him MOTM regardless of how he played. And that is fine. I'm just doing my little bit to correct the statistical bias.

But sorry I forgot this is the Sissoko thread, so I'll add I really enjoyed the bit when he tripped and didn't quite fall and did not quite regain his balance either, and this went on for about a minute.
Oh and I hope he comes on tomorrow and rifles a few right in - I think we can all agree on that.
