    Preston's goal came from a 0.03 xG shot. All modern analytics tell you to let him shoot from there because it's only going into the net one out of thirty odd times.

    Better to hold the defensive shape and not let him play a killer ball in to a player who would be in a better scoring position.
    Sorry just listen to yourself.

    Dismiss it all you want but it's borne out in the stats of our season.


    Why do you think we have the highest shots on target percentage in the league? Because the players are instructed not to snap at low quality chances and instead pick a pass.

    It follows that the defenders would be set up for the opposite and restrict the other team to long distance efforts. Have you never heard of commentators saying "they'll happily let them shoot from distance all day long"?

    We are defensively frail, we don't have defenders who can move forward and close down a player on the edge of the box without getting caught out behind the line. This is our tactical compromise.
    I would agree with you if wd were in the top 6......but seeing as we are near the bottom I would say having a dip from 20 odd yards every now & then wouldnt do any harm. 

    When there's a decent opening and you have a bit of quality... sure why not... (Gallagher v Derby, Taylor vs Stoke...)

    Just pass to a red shirt, FFS. Too many unnecessary and unsuccessful Hollywood passes.

    It's tactical. Better to let him head it from there ;)
