Isn't that when you have to look along side other stats like possession. Surely if we have better possession there's less chance/need to make a tackle?

Yeah but we make the fewest tackles in the division and we’re also ranked bottom for winning the tackles we do attempt so it’s the worst of both worlds.
It’s on par with having the fewest shots in the division whilst also having the lowest shot accuracy. If you’re not making many tackles per game because you dominate possession, it’s important that you win more tackles than you lose when you do make them.

Not sure how much he’d cost, probably around the same amount as Haji Wright, but Kévin Denkey is having a brilliant season in the Belgian league for Cercle Brugge. 25 goals in 31 league appearances this season so he knows how to score goals. You can argue about the quality of the Belgian league but the goal is the same size regardless. Haji Wright scored fewer in Turkey before Cov signed him and I’d argue the Belgian league is closer in intensity to England than Turkey.
What have you heard? I’m going to name a few see if I’m in the right track.
McBurnie
Rodriguez
Woodrow
Wood
King
Ray Manaj
There’s a few to go at. A left field one is Jizz Hornkamp in Holland. Yes that’s his name. Scored a few and brilliant at pressing.
Just for the name!!!!!! Words something like...."jizzing in your goal....HORNKAMP"...REPEAT

You’re probably right. Will probably go to a French club like Nice or summat for £8-10 million. I was being optimistic lol.
I’m still pissed off we couldn’t sign Ndayishimiye in summer 2022. He went to Nice the following January for €11 million rising to €16 million. Think we had a bid of £4-4.5 million accepted by Başakşehir but couldn’t agree wages. 6 months on and Nice signed him for twice that much at least.
If he looks like this then we should deffo sign Jizz

That’s why I think we should look at Cheick Condé at FC Zürich this summer. He’s valued around £3-4 million. 23-years-old, an athletic modern defensive mid, really good at reading the game off the ball, good at tackling, interceptions and generally winning the ball in the middle of the pitch and he’s also very comfortable on the ball as well. Good composure and able to carry the ball after winning it back and also has good passing range. Could be the ideal long-term replacement for Seri.
Good to see we are no longer having speculation on here.
Marlon coming out of retirement, or jail or wherever he is now?

And? We’ve dropped loads of points this season and the midfield have been crap out of possession against quick, strong counter-attacking sides.
