Torquay United FC v Brighton and Hove Albion FC ***Official Match Thread***
- Thread starter xenophon
- Start date
In another thread I pointed out how the statistics show the team's performance to be better with brezovan in goal (while not denying he made a howler).*
I put the success of the team ahead of restoring the better keeper, and Ninja couldn't see the sense in this, seemingly under the impression football isn't a team game, that the whole unit is irrelevant and that the individuals and their own moments of brilliance/cock ups are what count.
*=
Win rate with /(before today)
Brezovan: 40%
Kuipers: 37.5% (33.33)
Goals Conceded per game
Brezovan: 1.20
Kuipers: 1.19 (1.27)
Shots on target that result in goal conceded
Brezovan: 19.35%
Kuipers: 22.89% (24.36)
I'm not sure how it links to my comments about Navarro, where I point out how his appearance in the team has changed the fortunes of the team. I'm still looking at how the team performs with a particular player in it, instead of how that individual performs in the team.

No home support though, we'd be better off playing the Geordies financially.

1 Michel Kuipers.
Plus 10 others.
Hence the win and clean sheet, and not dropping the ball to allow the opposition to take the lead.BensGrandad

If that happened Murray and Forster would have helped him out as it is a team game and they all help each other, although you wouldnt notice it with Kuipers.

Always nice NOT to have to rely on the strikers to keep you in a game. We scored 1 goal today, and won the match. Makes a nice change.
Team in full, BG,
Kuipers
Hoyte
Virgo
Tunnicliffe
McNulty
Cox
Dicker
Crofts
Dickinson
Forster
Murray
Navarro replaced Cox at 0-0, that was the only change I think.

Is this cumulative or do we just get the figure for the round we go out in ? i.e. Semi Final this year.

That is what I wanted thank you. Just wanted to see what changes GP made and see it was gave the No2 keeper a game and also tried Virgo instead of Elphick fair enough as they are a division below us, and this is a squad game.

Just got back from the game.
Impressive turn out from the albion, although the ref tried his hardest to call off the game at 2.10pm!!!
Dont think 4-3-3 worked, until the second half, dickinson started trying and looked a decent player, along with murray and forster, we should be moving up the league!!
Up the Albion
Man Utd next at the withdean!!!!!!!!!!!
