Babylon Posted 15 August 2018 Posted 15 August 2018 6 hours ago, vanity said: Including the game he replaced Wes, we had three consecutive league shutouts (and the two Fleetwood matches which is how people get 5 straight shutouts), and we took 8 points from his first 5 games in that stretch, followed by the 5-1 thumping at Man City after which Wes took his job back. Though IDK why how many games we won when he played is this relevant to whether he was better than Wes -- what, that 0-0 match at Chelsea he played doesn't count bc his teammates couldn't score? I never saw anyone argue we never conceded when he played, that is matter of record and we obviously conceded, we conceded 5 in that Man City game alone. In any event, he appeared to me to be an above-average Prem-quality starter who we controlled via an option to buy, but we got Evans for much cheaper, tough to fault that decision. Though Evans hopefully won't spend so much time on the injury list that we wind up wishing we'd gone with Dragovic. You should probably re read the post
Dan Posted 15 August 2018 Posted 15 August 2018 That Man City game, seriously, watch those highlights back and tell me where he's at fault. Schmeichel & Maguire were particularly awful that day.
