Well they have. Tackles are normally measured like slide tackles and so on. Duels are what you're describing
Sorry, Ben, you’re wrong. Tackles are tracked the same way shots are. If you have 5 shots but only 3 are on target, that’s a 60% on-target rate. Same applies to tackle-sucess.
Well, it’s not really relevant to how modern stats are tracked. You asked how QPR has 100% tackle-success and City had 88% in the first half. We explained.
A duel goes on throughout a game, usually between the same two players. A tackle involves two players. One wins, one loses. A stat is something invented to sell video games.
Yeah, that’s not how stats are tracked. If you’ve got a problem, it’s with the companies like Opta who track stats and define them.

We've needed to move the pace up since August. The problem seems to be that we don't do this until we go behind. We did it against Rotherham and hammered them, but there appears to be a worry that if we do it against anybody half decent we'll get panned (we wouldn't).
He definitely isn't a clown, but why on earth he brings on slater and not an attacking player to replace our biggest attacking threat when we are 1-0 down..... It's a strange one
