    Remember when scousers used to say Fred was as ****e as Naby Savage. Fred is now utterly ****ing superb and the NabSav is a useless chod cripple, who will be playing for Southend inside 3 years.

    Fred: 25 appearances, 0 goals, 0 assists
    Keita: 9 appearances, 1 goals, 1 assists

    Fred is lucky he gets to play Brugge and Astana in the EL otherwise he'd have no goal contributions at all.

    That's right, a water carrier central midfield player is defined by his goals.

    So what's he defined by? His lower tackle success rate and much higher numbers of fouls and cards?

    The fact that he’s had a good season and anyone with eyes in their head and who watch the game, can see it.

    Keita has been a sick note flop in his time in this country.

    So in short, STFU Astro.

    He's defined by my own eyes telling he's improving, playing well and doing a job for the team.

    Not your ****ing stats.

    Fred is ****, the only reason people rate him is because lately he's been slightly less **** than Flopba.

    It's very hard for @astro as he doesn't watch matches, he spends the 90 mins collating stats and that tells him if a player has been good or not.

    Apparently he's playing really well, but this can only be spotted by watching him in person because it has no measurable impact on results :emoticon-0112-wonde

    You think the stats lie?

    Is Lingard also "superb" or do his terrible stats happen to reflect reality in his case?

    Firmino has scored fewer league goals this season than Chris Wood but the same amount as Jordan Ayew.

    He's got the same number of assists as Emiliano Buendia but fewer than part time footballer Riyad Mahrez.
