I think you have quoted a classic case there Dave. Klich. If you are on
Twitter you will have seen post and analysis showing that he made more passes,
created more chances than anyone else. However, we both know that he has
struggled in the first two matches. Hopefully his goal will improve things.

Normally ie non football I am a 'stats man' all the way
Football is more difficult - I was very critical of klich in his first two
games then read a stat that he had created more chances than anyone else in the
whole division in the first 2 games of the season
Am I totally wrong then? Maybe or maybe in football stats don't show the whole
picture. The number of shots and even shots on target in bald figures can
suggest one thing but do not always show the truth - 2 speculative long range
efforts that go straight to the keeper look better on paper than 2 shots inside
the box which hit the woodwork (off target) yet the latter are better in
reality
Or compare the passing accuracy of Batty v McAllister back in the dayBatts
always had a 85-95% completion rate as opposed to mecca's 65 to 75% but that
fails to take into account the difficulty of the pass etc
Having said all that there is only one real stat in football that counts - the
final score and 3 0 away from home is good in anyone's book whatever the
quality of the opposition
Yesterday was almost perfect , 3 goals, clean sheet, new striker off the
mark. All that was missing was a goal for Bamford at the end
