Transfer Rumours January Transfer Thread

[PLT]

What does that even mean?!

If it's based on xG I guess it means that the opposition has scored more goals against us than expected this season, which implies either our keeper(s) have underperformed at saving or the opposition has overperfomed at shooting, or a bit of both.

Goals like the Watford halfway line one will be a huge xG overperformance, and we do seem to concede a lot from outside the area in general, so that will probably make up a big part of it. But then it's whether you blame the keepers, defenders or tactics or something else for that. As with many stats, it could be interpreted any number of ways and I imagine the analysts employed by clubs will have ways of getting a more reliable picture out of it.

Measures how many goals conceded against the XG of the shots faced. Out of the 42 goalkeepers to play in the championship this season our pair are 38th and 40th despite playing about half the games of others.

**** knows.
I just go to watch the football.

It means based on the quality of shots against us we've conceded 10 goals more than expected

…wish I’d never asked

It means nothing to me .... oh Vienna !

Just as we did in 2008 when brought in a whole new forward line with Cousin, King and Geo. There’s no way a promoted team could possibly survive in the Prem without significant investment.

Luton are giving it a crack.

Definitely doesn’t mean that.
I always expect us to concede loads of goals!

What’a a matta you?

 

[tigerscanada]

I'm a critic, not necessarily the style, more the speed we play at.

I think we can definitely attract players with our manager and owner.

We mostly have the right players, though not necessarily always in the correct positions.

I just think Liam can be a little bolder. That said I do notice him on the touchline urging the back 4 to play the ball forward quicker and he genuinely seems frustrated.

Someone mentioned having an old head centre back to give us some nouse at back and I'd like to see that.

"We mostly have the right players, though not necessarily always in the correct positions."

Are we signing Andre Preview to play the Tiger Rag on the Joanna?

I go for some beers, watch the football, and some more beers.

So if we get this new goalie will the penalty area be called Pandurs box?

Halftime drink choice of Tiger Cola or Pandur Pop

 

[SydneyTiger14]

Can Fabio play on the wing?

I know this is probably a joke but yes he can, he plays left wing or through the middle.

 

[Ron Burguvdy]

Lots of uncertainty about the new proposed keeper, everyone seems quite bamboozled...

 

[tigerscanada]

Aye, and the BBC will do a documentary about him on Pandurama.

 

[rovertiger]

Aye, and the BBC will do a documentary about him on Pandurama.

Thankfully it won't be in black and white.

 

[tigerscanada]

Thankfully it won't be in black and white.

That would cause Pandurmania !
Correction...Pandurmonium.

 

[BlackAndAmberGambler]

Hope he’s not a primadonna as we shouldn’t Pandur to his demands.

 

[Ron Burguvdy]

Apparently his training regime consists of a light meal, taking penalties against other goalkeepers and then departing.

He's wrote a book about it...
