2019/20 Bernard

[Charles Hawtrey]

The fans clapped a lot is now the metric for whether a player is good or not. Sound.

well.... er... they are the judges of that at the end of the day aren't they.... isn't that the definition of a sports/entertainment business??

 

[TheBigIguana]

have a breather would you. Who does the guy have to impress - The fans and the manager. So yeah, 3 stands of standing ovations from the fans who go the game is a very good metric for how he’s playing.

The manager yanked him off at halftime one game ago. That's another metric.

 

[Connor]

I'd expect our fans to give an appreciation to any of our players when they come off so if they do that does that mean every player is good? I mean clearly not.

You can like someone and be honest about their ability. Or at least in theory you can. Our fans seem to struggle.

I give up.

Do us all a favour and scramble back to the Leipzig thread.

The manager put Niasse and Davies on. There’s another metric of how much his opinion currently matters if you want to be obtuse to the point of Moronity

At least that thread makes a big deal out of actual players like Sabitzer and Nkunku

Come and get your boy @Nymzee

Putting Niasse on with 3 minutes left does not equal pulling a player off at halftime

it was just as costly

Obdurate and Moronity should be our new centre mid partnership.

It’s like when you accidentally let your dog loose in the park on a Saturday.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

So numbers do matter?

But only when it suits

I think he is pointing out that Bernard can’t win with certain people and that is true.

Three sides of the ground applauding a player supersedes one bad game when he gets pulled of at half time. especially when the most recent game is the one where he receives the adulation.

further - it was 8 mins of playing time, not 3. Otherwise how did they score in the 94th and 95th minute.

I changed it to obtuse as it’s a better fit, obtuse links up the forward play better

Topic for a different thread but the Coleman sub, not the Niasse one, is where the problems started.

sure near the end he got put through and ended up running into there player instead of slowing the play or even holding it up

All 3 subs were poor by the way
