I must have been having a shower after seeing your Correct Result...

Fowum fwiends.

I'm struggling to see how you can be pessimistic about Clement yet you wanted to stick with Beale. C o n t r a r i a n.

I wouldn't say Clement nor Beale have worked 'miracles', but expecting miracles is unrealistic. I thought Beale was doing well last season, in terms of results, which was why I was hopeful this season. He was sacked for his appalling start to this season. If Clement starts next season the way Beale did I'll be calling for his head. I'm much more comfortable about the future under Clement than I ever was with Beale, though. That's just me, though.

It's wing-play without any wingers... Cortes and Sima were big losses.

Who has the better PPG?

It includes all games: 29 wins, 6 draws. I've not got the stamina to take just the league games - they are even split into pre- and post-split.

The stats are there for you to see.

I disagree. They had a worse manager.

Not less at all. Fewer. I didn't refute this point, though. I am refuting your suggestion that it somehow proves that PC is doing the same as MB, which is patently untrue, as shown above by the stats. We will achieve fewer points this season mainly because of MB's poor start to the season.

As it was under Gerrard. We did aight.

Steady. Matches W D L Goals Points PPG PC 39 29 6 4 87:29 93 2.38 MB (overall) 43 31 4 8 92:44 97 2.26 MB (this season) 14 8 2 4 23:15 26 1.86 MB wasn't sacked because of his overall record - his record last season was good, which is why many, including myself, were quite optimistic coming into this season. He was sacked because of his record this season, which was appalling. For PC to take us from 1.86 points-per-game to 2.38 ppg is very good. (And this excludes the style of football.)

Bottlers.

I'm just going outside. I may be some time...

The biggest danger is ourselves.

My lineup would be what we've gone with, but with a flat midfield three and Lawrence on the wing. I wouldn't expect that, though, as we've not played that way before.

The only difference between your sides is PC is playing an actual #10 (Diomande is not a #10). (And not playing Ridvan but if PC doesn't play him it means he's not ready as PC has preferred him this season.)

It's just pretty much the same. There's not much else he can do with this squad.
