winger in his pocket. Two great tackles early on gave the team momentum

Probably his best game for Town. He won his battle against Clarke both physically and mentally. Clarke lost the head a bit and Furlong was focused and didn’t let it phase him.

He also knew that the crowd had got a bit annoyed with him and absolutely made sure he irked them even more. Best sh1thousery since Muric at Spurs last season.

Likewise Walton keeping the ball at his feet waiting for their press.

I think it says an awful lot about last nights performance when you can say Egeli was possibly the least effective player for Town. But even then he wasn't bad,
I thought both fullbacks were outstanding. It says something when you can say Kipre and O'Shea didn't have that much to do and our keeper looks good at crosses coming in.
Obviously Clarke had to be MOTM. Isn't it great when you have Philogene as a back up.
But cautiously I'm not going to go overboard. Because we have fallen foul of games against teams like Oxford before. They certainly won't be as open as Coventry and will no doubt be open to a bit of sh*thousery.

I can't recall where I saw the stat, but pretty recently I saw the "+/-" stats for Championship players, i.e. what the goal difference has been when a particular player was on the pitch.

Furlong had the highest of all Town players.

To me that's an interesting stat, and emphasises the consistency of the guy. I think he's been a solid presence this season, and we can have a Leif (or indeed a Greaves!) constantly bombing up and down both sides. It will be interesting to see how he links up with Burns, assuming Wes gets the minutes that many of us hope he gets.

I like Furlong too and I think he brings really good balance in conjunction with our attacking left back. We shouldn't be looking for the same both sides, that's one of our strengths.

But the old goal difference / points difference when a player is on the pitch is a meaningless one for a number of reasons: sample size too small, opposition variable, team mates not consistent etc. etc. etc. It's a completely useless, worse than that, a misleading 'stat' in my opinion.
