Tavernier One of the Leagues Best

Stats. We all love stats. Every single one of us would gladly not watch a game and instead delve into a myriad of stats and figures to help us interpret the game rather than have to watch the drivel put in front of us.

So here's the leader for you - James Tavernier - often derided on this forum - has been one of the best attacking players in the league this season.

In fact he's been 6th best.

Why do I say that? Well, because of this:

Finally we're analysing expected assists and expected goals. Is it his fault that dumplings in front of goal are not scoring when he's providing them with wonderful passes? Certainly not.


Oh, and through this analysis, Scott Sinclair has been more impressive than Dembele for Celtic. In fact he's been the best in the league.


And Don Cowie creates the most expected assists in the league.

Simon - played for Douglas for 3 years - 13s, 14s and 15s. Reached cup finals in each of the years (and got pumped in each one).

Traitor

The changed the age rules at u16 so it fitted in with your school year rather than whatever rule they had before, so I went to Lincraig to play in the same team as my mates. Team was stinking but I got another POTY that year.

Used to work with a guy called Dudson. Funnily enough, he was known to one and all as Dud.

I'm pretty much convinced journalists read forums.
