20 game stats comparison , Cook : McKenna 16:12 - Apr 16 with 2301 views | ArnieM | This is league games. …. Cook: P 20. W7 L7 D 6 His last 6 games : W2 L 2 D1 McKenna : P20 . W10 L4 D6 His last 6 games : W 1 L2 D3 Results: TBh not a huge amount of difference in actually results, and certainly not a statistical significance. McKenna has had the “luxury” of a more settled squad as it has now bedded in. Football quality: McKenna is streets ahead. [youtube][/youtube] Problems: the same ones exist under McKenna as they did under Cook, namely. Unable to score goals/ squander numerous chances. Succumb to the sucker punch most games. Zero goal threat from set pieces, Zero ability to take corners. Edit… I take a lot of comfort fr9m McKenna words post match today now… “ Over the last week or two we've known it was probably going to be beyond us for the play-offs this year," said McKenna. "It was always going to be a very tall ask from the start of the season we had and the runs that other teams have had. I don't think today changes that. I think it's points we dropped earlier in the season that dictates that. "For us it's about building now. I think it's really clear for me to see, and probably for everyone else to see, the areas of the game that we're very good at and also the things that we need to improve in the summer, both with recruitment and coaching. We look forward to that process now. We go into the summer with a real clarity about what we need to do to improve the team and the squad.” [Post edited 16 Apr 2022 16:35]

But I fear he will use his time to learn with us rather than succeed with this. Kinda like branded Rogers. [Post edited 16 Apr 2022 16:23]

Upto the manager to win games barca and keep fans onside. He's not achieved anything as a manager to have blind faith. Upto you if you think everything's fine every week. |  |

I don't think Ashton will allow 2 pre seasons if we don't go up next season footers. |  |

Disagree, unless there is a drastic change in how we are looking and playing. should we fail next year having got into the playoffs and there are clear signs we are progressing then I think he would get another season. The difference between him and Cook (aside from the football, nous and general ability is that he is the man that has been chosen by our current management team, Cook never was. FWIW I think we'll go up anyway next year, more of a cutting edge and we might have run it close this season. |  |

Definitely better stats than Cook but he has had the advantage of playing Gillingham twice and won't have played Sunderland at all. |  | |  |

This is the football equivalent of a 'yes, but Labour' post. |  |

20 game stats comparison , Cook : McKenna on 17:34 - Apr 16 with 1644 views | timothyeo | Significant upgrade on Cook as a manager, but Cook was unbelievably poor and should have gone way before he did (but apparently according to the majority on here, he just needed more time). The main problems I see is McKenna hasn't shown any ability to change a game tactically with any success - this was an obvious flaw in Cook when he first came in that again, I was told to ignore on here until 'he had his own team'. Which is the second problem - we have no idea how good McKenna will be at building a team. It's going to be new to him. |  | |  |

My biggest fear is I am not sure K can pick the players we need with the budget we have. Only have Bakinson and Thompson to judge him on, but in my brief look at them both they are no better than we had. I think we massively missed Evans the last few weeks. |  | |  |

Yes, the former would get you roughly 83 points over a season (which even this season should be enough for the play-offs), whereas the latter would get you only 62 points. In any event, it is not just statistics where there is no comparison between the two. |  | |  |

I’d say Bakinson looks better than any other options than Evans; hard to judge Humphrys at this stage. Thompson has improved us defensively but we’re weak attacking wise that side. |  |
