No, it really doesn't; It is your interpretation. It just says that according to their way of measuring: Hazard created most chances. Nothing more. and Schurrle will be measured accordingly. Nothing more. If they say Hazard is A and you say A = B, so they really say Hazard is B then you have to be damn sure A=B . Creating the most chances (A) is not equal to being the most creative + being the one that contributed most (B). It is even a logical error to say that.

Lol, you tease!

It doesn't really say he is the best, most creative, makes the team bettre, B. You are reading to much into it. It is just a stat saying according to their way of registering chances , he had the most. Other players will be measured according to the same method, so that evens things out for everyone.

True. He - as all the players - has to perform in the present. The rest is nostalgia.

Yes! And no more showing tiny penis gifs to ManU fans. Wtf is up with that!

Better keep the avatar clean and the posts Victorian then :-)

Or KDB, or both !!

Loved that tbh.

Hi Earl !! Welcome, Earl!

Witsel ............

Just awful .... Heads up kid!

Yeah, but the lack of initiative, daring to do stuff, simple misplaced passes indicate low confidence levels as well, as I see it.

Yep. Pics or it didn't happen

Well, we won! I do feel Mou's challenge will be more a motivational/match form one for a LOT of the players, than a tactical. Good luck in this first year with this broad young group .

Owkee. lol.

I will get cursed by a lot but I think the likes of them + William + Hazard + .... are too much busy trying to prove themselves to him too much instead of just playing - so they freeze and lose natural, look stressed. mou is a great strategic manager, but here ... the internal competition thing is exposed.

Indeed, and all 1st team material. think about it. How come? What could ever be the root cause?

I do see a lot of structural 'out of form-ness'. Both in this team setup as in the first team one. That is very worrying. Even though Mou does have a plan for a tactical future, the motivational factor does seem lacking.

No probs :-)

Ouch Cheap shot, no? I said I didn't feel he played well also. So why go there. And: what do THEY say about belgians around here? Tell me, please? You know I don't like remarks about that, just as I never endorsed people joking about Brazilians because you like Oscar or Luiz. I think it i degrading, and discriminating. True, right.

Meeeeh. KDB has gone missing badly. William also a bit absent. Mata hit and run. So that needs 'oiling'.

I am sorry. But you really do not seem to know different shades of gray. No nuance whatsoever lately. And also in a bit of different threads today, BBBB. Cheer up please! Not moping, you seem to be a bit though

Well, we had a slow start but we are doing ok now, really. We have some guys trying to get some rhythm going. But Torres looked like Zorres, Rami good as well. We miss a bit of spirit at time. That is all you can safely deduce really :-)
