    Were driving back still, just said if we hadn't gone up a few would have definitely been in for the lad. He's a special talent and only going to get better.

    I’m going to argue he’s our best young talent if it isn’t Jobe.

    20/30 million for Mayenda isn’t even a joke anymore but imagine saying that at the start of the year

    There’ll still be strong interest, regardless of promotion. It’s staggering how quick he’s improved

    He's the player I want to see next year no matter what. Think he's massive.

    Jobe would maybe shade him but I don't have much hope he will be around come august.

    I was saying to my dad earlier, I don't I've ever seen a CF for us that I've been so excited about. We've had some quality strikers over the yrs but I never felt many had that high of a ceiling (Defoe obviously played at the very top but came to us at the end of his career)

    Mayenda has everything you want in a modern day striker, he still needs fine tuning but what a player

    He's come on so much this season and that's why I think we are in a unique position because what if the likes of him, Jobe, Mundle, Hume all kick on as much as they did next season - they'd be PL quality then

    Very easy analysis of our performance over the season.

    The top graph shows the difference in xG for and Against game by game. So Gameweeks 1-5 we had more or even xG to xGA whereas 6 we had less.

    The bottom graph shows a rolling total of our xG results so you can see at which points of the season we were playing worse and bringing the xG down. Particularly the last 5/6 games.

    This chart includes play off games but no cup games. Thank You

    from last season you can see how high our progressive passes, carried and passes into the final 3rd were compared to the rest of the league.

    evidence to show how we played on the counter.

    All the players weve signed so far have high progressive passes or progressive passes received numbers, just showing how data can be used to recruit for the playstyle and tactics
