    10/1 for us to win on Sky Bet, worth a punt surely.

    This is the problem... People risk sitting behind a desk for 6 months to to earn the money to buy a car or something that gets them where they don't want to be fur another 3 to 5 years, but nobody is prepared to waste 10 k on a bet that could in just 90 minutes ensure you never have to sit behind a desk much at all ever again

    No he isn't lol. Our record without ASM and Wilson says it all. They're a league above anyone else we've got.

    Almiron tries hard but he's not quality at this level.

    Without Almiron we are nothing

    Even max was poor earlier in the season when Almiron wasn't starting.

    Actually, the stats would show that without ASM/Wilson we are nothing, based on the results without them.

    Can't argue with results.

    I think we need all 3 personally because of you look at the games early on without almiron in the side and with max and Wilson we struggled..

    Almiron has play x2 the amount of minutes as ASM - ASM has 3 goals and 5 assists in 1000 mins, Almiron has 4 goals and 2 assists in 2000 minutes.

    Wilson has 10 goals and 6 assists in 1800 minutes.

    ASM and Wilson are definitely our best players. It's not just results, it's obvious talent and effectiveness.

    How many tackles has he made though? How much ground do they cover?

    No they are not.

    Almiron
    Dubz
    Wilson
    ASM
    Fede

    Stats are meaningless in football.
    For example: Almiron tackles a player at the edge of the 18 yard box, runs forward 40 yards beating two opposition players, lays ball beautifully to ASM who taps it on to Wilson and Wilson taps it home.

    Stats show
    ASM assist
    Wilson goal











    Almiron nothing

    I think almiron superhuman too he's available more and that counts.

    Max is sensational, but he's explosive and rarely fit.

    Ok ok, then ASM, Wilson, Almiron and Dubravka are our 4 most important players then, and who's best out of all of those four is debatable.
