For anyone that doesn't want to go to Sky:


Looks rather suspicious, but they did go on to win 1-0, so who knows?

 

Other than an attempt at fraud I cannot see any other explanation.

 

The team's response:


He may have been trying to prod it in and badly mishit it, but...

 

COVID Pandemic is over. Stop whining!

(Get well soon, mate )

 

Still less embarrassing than the crowds for the women's Euros...

 

Tell that to Bissouma and Forster

 

Just quoting Government edicts....! They all have to just believe more!

 

An integral part of my bet on France v Belgium at the W Euros was Marie-Antoinette Katoto scoring/assisting/shots on target.
She was subbed off after 17 minutes
Bastille Day, Marie-Antoinette - should have spotted the clues

 

No mention of it on the campaign trail, so it's clearly over

But enough about the war in Ukraine, what about Covid...?

 

Rumour is she's a bit too fond of the cake.

 

And she's a killer queen

My legal representatives have advised me to point out that is not what I meant. Even if it were true.

 

Been thinking about doing counter-attack stats for
the "Squad watch" article (assuming Sky Sports
show enough of the build-up play for such goals in
their game highlight vid clips ) .

Some of the motivation is also driven by bad losers
like Pep the false messiah, and klipperty Klopp,
who attempt to use "counter-attacking" as a
derogatory term for opponents.

So it comes down to an objective definition of
what a "counter-attack" is. My first cursory attempt
goes thus :

X scores a counter-attacking goal against Y, when
X takes possession of the ball from Y :

1. in open play

2. within the first 1 / N of the pitch area (as measured
from the X goal line)

and goes on to score.


The definition is parametric (the value of N) .
The question that then immediately comes is :

what should the value of N be ?? 3 ?? 4 ??

I contend that N = 2 (starting at the halfway line) does
not feel like a real counter-attack to me.


Anyway, would be interested in peoples' opinions on this.

 

I would go for 3. I think 4 is too deep and 2 not deep enough.

 

That is my opinion too, but always better to have a
large pool of opinion for what N should be.

Who knows, perhaps using our collection of the stats
Conte will do a Benitez on Pep and Klopp but
inducing the response Fergie got from Keegan.
