Yep noticed that.....
Was mentioned a bit on twitter. Don't think it matters too much to be honest. 
Agree it doesn't matter. Hopefully Cullen is back for the next game to change that stat.

I'd like to see Kelleher come back into contention.

Would Omobamidele be able to move over to RW back?

The midfield is paper thin. Knight hadn't a good game against either Scotland or Armenia, one in which we were reacting, the other we were dominating. Will he come good again? His high tempo style could do with some good coaching or it'll wane as he gets older, very soon.

I'd have Omobamidele with Cullen as the the sitters.

The new Paul.


McGrath as a 10/8.

Ogbene and Obafemi up top.

The only stat that matters is the scoreline

Very interesting Jason Molumby with the highest pass percentage ,only 8 shots on target across the 2 games, and obafemi very effective when he runs at teams

I'm not trying to denigrate Molumby here, it's always good not to give the ball away, but I hate using that stat when assessing player performance, CBs regularly top the ranking in a game and the bare stat takes no account of the type of pass attempted. You can have a CM in there who tries to create and play through balls who ends up with a much lower passing percentage. 

Molumby didnt make a key pass across the two games, again thats not really his role, so its not a criticism, but it puts in to context his pass completion rate - his job was to win the ball and keep it which he did well. Brady had 6 key passes in his one game (impressive and I didnt think he played particularly well), but understandably had a 10% lower pass completion rate.

Obafemi's 5 of 6 dribbles completed is decent.

Not surprising at all, every pass is short and backwards or sideways. This was like when Harry Arter had brilliant pass completion rates in the league a few years back but he was just tapping it 5 yards to Andrew Surman every time he got it LOL
