EFL Team of the Season - A good reason to abandon Analyitics ?

Of all the Fulham players to be selected ... Scott Malone !!





Can only assume that some sort of weird statistics were applied for each position. But even then the mind boggles ...

 

To be fair, he's scored a few goals, some of them impressive ones. If the team is picked by people who only watch highlights and look at stats, I can see how he could have got in. Nobody knows a player like the fans who watch him every week - I never thought Danny Murphy was all that good until he started playing for us - and with full backs, it's their attacking play that catches the eye of the casual viewer more than their defensive lapses.

 

Malone looked fantastic back in November, so it's not completely ridiculous. Certainly no more ridiculous than Shelvey being in the team ahead of Cairney.
