many thanks to the 89 Lifers who gave marks, I could not find a decent pic of the MoM in CAFC shirt so used a group pic instead. Don't know how much the spotlight on defenders stats mean but it's there in case it might mean something to somebody
WHY did you spell the MOM name wrong in statistics of order of players marks?
Is this any good?
the reason his name is spelt wrong is because I made a mistake, obvious I would have thought, edited to correct spelling no don't like that pic, prefer the group shot
Wow 8.47 for a defender! Second highest score for the season behind Gallagher’s 8.5. One question @lancashire lad - in the new Defenders table how do players get a decimal point - for instance Purrington offside 0.4!? Great stats as usual.

sorry I have no idea how they calculate the stats.
It says offsides won per game. Presumably that means if a defender makes two appearances and catches a striker offside once over of the two games they’d average 0.5 offsides per game.

A bizarre stat really, as surely offsides are just as much an error by the attacking player as something to credit the defence for?
I assume Pearce leads the table as during the game he missed, no Forest player was caught offside. If however Grabban had strayed offside a couple of times, then the other defenders would have overtaken him
Sam Field made no blocks? I swear he was one of the bodies in the way at the end?
I never thought of it that way round! the blocks refer to shots made by our players which are blocked by the opposition, unfortunately the match information I have found available does not include the name of the player that blocks the shot just the one that made it.

It didn't feel that we had as much as 31% but saw that figure on the BBC stats.
Must be quite a few games when we have been under the cosh but the one that springs to mind was the evening game at Norwich when we won 1-0 with a daisy cutter from Jackson which I'm sure was our only shot of the night ? Remember Henderson doing every thing in slow motion, Wiggins having a superb defensive game(no wing back this night) and Norwich having the ball and attacking similar to Brentford.
The fact that Brentford had 22 shots but only 4 on target which from memory was two blocks from Pearce and Field and two decent saves by Philips.
Admittedly I didn't go, but when we get a clean sheet but Dillon is still near the bottom of the list, how did that happen?
Well he didn't have a great deal to do as the defenders in front of him did most of the blocking and defending - hence Lockyer and Pearce at the top.
Dillon made a couple of good saves but also a few dodgy moments...
Thank you, quite mad how he can get a clean sheet and still be the 2nd worst player marked. But as you say if he had a few hairy moments, it makes sense.

Great job by the way Lancashire Lad. Really interesting.

Guess that makes sense haha thanks mate

Granted his distribution is never brilliant but dont care too much about that provided he keeps the ball out the net
Other games this season he's not really been at fault for the goals
Just for the majority of Saturday I felt the clean sheet was down to Lockyer and Pearce more than Dillon
