Whilst your there dax, check a few games, i jusr picked the newc game, passes forward alot more than back.
Well, lets use the New Castle game.
De Jong- 39 passes, 32 completions, 7 incompletions
Barry- 37 passes, 29 completions, 8 incompletions
De Jong: 2 tackles won
Barry: 3 tackles won
De Jong: 0 blocks
Barry: 2 blocks
De Jong: 0 clearances
Barry: 2 clearances
De Jong: 2 interceptions
Barry: 3 interceptions
Barry was better at everything De Jong is supposed to be better at. And just as average passing the ball. A closer look, and you see that De jong lost 6 of his 7 passes inside our half. Barry lost 3 of his 8.
We can keep delving into the facts. I actually like this. It males everything clearer :)
