  1. That's what I've always done. It's a pain in the arse and should be unnecessary. Which is why I'm asking the question.
  2. Why can I attach a .jpg file but not a .jpeg file? Couldn't we do both?
  3. I don't think I've moved any goalposts but I have at least looked to see that you haven't attached a crossbar 😉 So basically these numbers are of no use whatsoever in the context of prospective signings and could even be wholly misleading if read without the benefit of caveats about the circumstances under which they were generated. I get it now 😄
  4. Surely there's only fair comparison of like for like if, as you say, you take into account how his team is performing around him. I think the bottom line is that, while these figures are an interesting insight into previous performances at other clubs, they're next to worthless when assessing how a player can be expected to perform in a new team with different players, different tactics, different pressures and different personal circumstances.
  5. All well and good but if you're going to present numbers as meaning anything then it doesn't help if they're only useful when you build a wall of caveats around them.
  6. Those numbers say he's an attacking midfielder, not a striker
  7. Rangers certainly isn't rushing to fill any of the many vacancies on the Football Club board. While some of those departing may still be in position, you have to wonder if this isn't starting to put some strain on the organisation.
  8. Are links to DR articles no longer banned on Gersnet then?
  9. A good point. Conversely, some others may struggle to maintain past form with a large new influx of better players around them.
  10. If ... IF? What's the point of these Fancy-Dan neural network prediction algorithms if they can't even tell us how many goals the guy will score. Very disappointing. 😉
  11. The game in Scotland has been on life support for years. The SFA has much to answer for.
  12. OK so ........ with all these xG's tied down, exactly how many goals will he score for us next season if he signs?

  14. Always read the exam paper carefully and make sure you answer the question being asked.
  15. We would be classed as a good team in our league but have frequently provided very poor service to our strikers.
  16. The fact Kane has stayed there so long suggests to me that Spurs actually suits him. He’s fabulously well paid and given his track record he’s under no pressure whatsoever. Does he really want to leave his comfort zone at this late stage in his career?
  17. To get much out of these numbers you’d really have to understand the quality of the wider team around him at each club.
  18. Player of the Season ..... Goldson Biggest Flop ..... Morelos Most Improved ..... Souttar Unsung Hero ..... Lundstram Best Signing ..... Cantwell Doesn’t seem to matter how you spin it, the team that got reamed from one end of the CL to the other is never going to look good.
  19. Player of the Season ..... Tavernier Biggest Flop ..... Tamundo Most Improved ..... Sakala Unsung Hero ..... Goldson Best Signing ..... Cantwell
  20. Yup, that's Glasgow alright.
  21. I want fewer pubs and more coffee shops, which I reckon are far more profitable.
  22. Player of the Season ..... Cantwell Biggest Flop ..... Kamara Most Improved ..... Yilmaz Unsung Hero ..... Jack Best Signing ..... Souttar
  23. I don't know what the price of a pint is, let alone the profit contribution, but I'd like to know how many pints he would need to sell to make a living. As someone else has said, there must be a lot of better investment opportunities.
  24. For some reason we’ve become infatuated with fullbacks endlessly pumping in crosses, the vast majority of which come to nothing. I’m all for good quality crosses but we have to bring more to the table. If fullbacks can’t defend competently, I don’t care how good their crosses are. While I’m at it, why does Tav have to take every throw in and every free kick and every corner? Is no one else capable?
