Talking of maths, which isn't my strong point so anyone feel free to correct me.

Ronald percentage of assists per minutes on the pitch is approx 0.26%

Eom's figures are approx 0.20%
Lets say you are right. (You arent but its not important) So what. He is as good as Ronald. So surely this thread should be titled "Eom The Show Pony?"

Start your own thread with that title if that's what is really bothering you?

Just asked ChatGPT to work out the players assist ratio's to minutes per game and the is what it come up with

Eom Ji-sung: 0.00254 assists per minute.

Ronald: 0.00239 assists per minute.

So they are as good as each other. How many goals per minute does Chat GPT give for Eom?
 
If Eom had not missed six weeks through injury and remained on zero goals and assists, I dare say we would have a more lengthy thread about him. However we will never know, either way both of them are ours, both are relatively new to UK life and unlikely to be fully adjusted to things. It’s the job of the coaching team to work on their respective limitations and to try and turn them into the next £10m asset. Work very much in progress.
 
Eom is one of our little gems, with the right coaching will be a massive asset for us.

Best buddies with Franco, their natural chemistry will flourish on the pitch with more game time together. A dressing room fave too, defo one of the good ‘uns.
 
Completely daft judging players off raw stats and nothing else. It's a trend that's become absurdly popular recently, and it's so frustrating.

Watch the highlights of our game yesterday, and keep an eye on Franco's goal:

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxZbOT6zDF5akRysMZFArqwiKD8PtK-2PQ?si=j9yWKtef2sl6SDXb

He has his fullback utterly lost. Not a clue where Eom's going, and no chance of stopping him. That requires a second player to come across and offer support, which Eom makes the most of by timing a lovely ball through the middle to Cullen.

Eom doesn't get the assist here, but he plays the biggest part in the goal.

Similar to our second yesterday, where Franco's excellent pass breaks the line and allows Key to simply square it to Cullen. Key gets the assist, but does that make him a better playmaker, or more important to that move, than Franco?

Pay more attention to the game, not the numbers.

Excellent post.

I do think that "assists" are both important but also wildly overvalued. A player gets an assist if he passes it two yards to his right to someone in the middle of the pitch who then dribbles the ball past four players and blasts the ball into the top corner.

A player doesn't get an assist if he dribbles it past three players and squares it to someone at the back post who nods it down for a striker to tap in from one yard out.

Now admittedly 99% of goals fall far from those two extreme examples but yeah. Goal involvements should be done off a different metric but no one has figured out how best to do that yet, otherwise the likes of opta and other statistical websites would already be all over it.

There is a large proportion of supporters, and it tends to be the younger generation, who have convinced themselves that stats are the be all and end all of a players assessment. Witness how quickly they all retweet any kind of post bigging up Grimes' numbers for example.

It seems that the ability to watch games and decide on that whether a player is a major contributor or not has fallen out of favour compared with regular visits to WhoScored and FBREF.

We do seem to live in a world where stats seems determine if a player is any good or not.

I'll always prefer the old fashioned method of using my eyes whilst at the game.

Stats aren't the be all and end all, but opinions that ignore inconvenient facts (which is what stats are) are pretty worthless.
