One of your stats was goals scored 🤷‍♂️ I picked all the defensive stats listed, because that's where Engel unnoticeably excels. I've mentioned it before, just because a player isn't exciting... Doesn't mean he's not a good player.

Leif Davies just won the championship LB of the season... Stats from FBREF (the same website yours are from)... Tackles per 90 mins Davies 1.82 Engel 2.47 Tackles won Davies 1.33 Engel 1.49 % of dribbers tackled Davies 66.2 Engel 54.7 Blocks Davies 1.1 Engel 1.6 Clearances Davies 1.53 Engel...

I've never really rated Messi.... Saw him play once a few years ago and he was only a 7/10, so that's my opinion of him. Doesn't matter how many goals he's scored, assists he's made, or any actual data about him... My opinion is my opinion and I'm going to stick with it forever.

I am 80% (y) but I think we need to be more selective and know when not to do it.

I can't see him getting another chance in English football without going and succeeding somewhere else first. What team would be willing to take a punt on him? If Forest go down... Maybe? Luton?

That's not how positional play works - There's no immediate danger as the ball is going straight to Howson who should be clearing it. The blame is 90% Howson 10% Ayling and 0% Engel. Engel is inline with his CB which is exactly where he's told to be. Chelsea played the exact same formation...

He wanted to leave for the opportunity of playing somewhere different like the MLS. I've also read that it was in the region of £2 - 2.5m.

If fans have a bit patience it shouldn't really matter? 🤷‍♂️ 😂

Finding the next Morgan Rogers would be a good start to Scott's summer... Micah Hamiltons contract runs out at Man City U21s 👀

Engel's positioning is perfect throughout the whole passage of play. He's inline with his centre backs when there's no immediate danger, which is exactly where he's told to be. He's also inline with Howson (his CB) in the previous screenshot which in your opinion... "proves how poor his...

A very weak cross comes in... no pressure on Player 1.... Somehow the player in red scores from this position... but it's player 2s fault?

Do you honestly believe Engel is at fault for that Southampton goal? Ayling gets too easily beat by his man who crosses the ball in from the corner flag. Clarke is in the total wrong position. Dieng could have easily shouted and claimed the ball from the initial cross. Howson (who must have...

He was the defender marking Armstrong for the goal we conceded. The reason fans don't seem to rate him is because the small number of negatives or mistakes are very obvious/easy to see (like marking Armstrong for the goal). vs. the very large number of positives (based on actual stats) are the...

Philogene was dropped from the Stoke team last season and then was pretty average for Cardiff. It's very easy to compare players when you've got hindsight on side. We should have just signed Gyokeres when he went to Coventry for £1.2 million then all our problems would be solved.

I think we're going to have to agree to disagree. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and everyone see's the game differently.... but every online stat from multiple different sources cannot be wrong.
