FotMob have given Gough the highest rating (8.1) of anyone on the pitch despite Bristol Rovers losing 2-1 to Salford4

FotMob is a great app but the Match ratings are too based on numbers and not the eye test, looking at Bristol rovers fans comments online apparently was his worse game for them.fenaddick said:fenaddick said:FotMob have given Gough the highest rating (8.1) of anyone on the pitch despite Bristol Rovers losing 2-1 to Salford

Weird how Bristol Rovers' form has completely fallen off, and they're now down in 15th. More of a test there now than it had looked a few weeks ago.1

I agree, I posted that for a bit more context really, the heatmap and those two stats show why he was rated highly.Crispywood said:

Crawley have sacked Colin Kazim-Richards, his assistant and their DoF. Not sure what that will mean for Ty Ewens-Findlay1

Kanu penalty incident and goal here (about 45 seconds in)
https://youtu.be/iKtfkK7F9xM?si=98QUZoxF_WYGB0vX&t=45
And some comments from the Notts County forum
Kanu looked like the player I thought we were signing and he and Smyth must start together.
So happy for Kanu - lots of great play from him now we've worked out how to set him free a bit.
Playing with two strikers made the world of difference and gave Kanu the opportunity to move into the wide spaces when he wanted.
Grant was excellent, some really good first touches and enabled Kanu and Smyth to thrive.
Robbo was brutish and snappy, just what we've been missing.
Kanu ran the channels and Smythe was really good at holding and bringing others into play.5 -
Good to see him doing well, but my view this summer of Kanu was that we shouldn’t keep him because I don’t think he suits a lone striker role that we are now trying to play. Which based on those comments seems to be the case even in league 1 let alone the championshipfenaddick said:Kanu penalty incident and goal here (about 45 seconds in)https://youtu.be/iKtfkK7F9xM?si=98QUZoxF_WYGB0vX&t=45

I did not realise Grant had joined Kanu at Notts County 😁0

If that had been Miles wrestled to the ground like that, you know the penalty would never have been given.fenaddick said:Kanu penalty incident and goal here (about 45 seconds in)https://youtu.be/iKtfkK7F9xM?si=98QUZoxF_WYGB0vX&t=45

Speaking of, Ibby Fullah started tonight against Bromley but came off at HT. Looks like he might have played both wing back roles going off his heatmap4 -
Ibby started for MK Dons at home to Bromley tonight, had a couple of shots off target and was subbed off at half time. Gassan isn't in the squad for Cambridge, so presumably still injured, and no sign of Rylah in the Solihull Moors squad either.4
