When Vieri moved back to Italy as a teenager he setup cricket games with his mates at school and tried to teach the other kids how to play. These lists are fun but stupid. Because there is no criteria so everyone just interprets it however they feel then get into arguments about it talking about...
The dream would be for him to take them on a play off run and get promoted. I believe they would then have to also beat the 16th placed team as well?
Even if he did this, realistically he needs to get them promoted and then if he plays well at the higher level he will come into contention.
Nisbet
Jari Vlak from ADO Den Haag
Nisbet measure below average for players in midfield (not attacking midfield) for all but possessions and chance creation. There is obviously a huge amount of context with this stuff. No one is actually watching him play to be able to provide that context...
I would much rather him play minutes than sit on the bench in the championship. Statwise he has been good for Roda this year, Fotmob thinks their second best player. If anyone has actually watched him play I would be interested in how he has looked. Last year he was rated middle of the pack for...
Happy to be wrong as always. I suspect the 'training' part would be the critical aspect of this. In that neither Balard or Nisbet would play in the Championship and they would just be training week in week out.
Souttar offers a lot at set pieces as well. With the potential of Irankunda or maybe Goodwin delivering this is a massive benefit.
It is another reason why Duke is underrated. He isn't Cahill level of threat, but he is absolutely a threat, and if this is combined with Irvine and Souttar it is...
I know you guys are probably talking about goals, but McGree assisted for Behich against Japan and Leckie against Denmark. Doesn't get much bigger than these two contributions.
Arena hasn't done any media but my read on Volpato is he just wants to play for Italy. If it was about world cups and making it he would have played for us. A lot of the talk about these guys looks at the pros and cons professionally of playing for each country. Very likely to make it to a WC...
