SCIAG Ascotexgunner Just a thought.....HRK and ShLong are dropping into the Championship again.....would any of you take HRK back?
Personally I would break the bank of Long....he's exactly what we need.......suspect its just a dream though and he will stay in the PL with another club......As for HRK......no thanks. Did OK but it wasn't enough for me.
Wouldn't take either of them. Long is over the hill and
has scored 7 goals in his last 73 games. HRK was with us for years and never held down a spot.
The usual misrepresentation
Even though the pundits like to give the impression of him being useless his stats aren't that bad
Appearances, not starts, minutes, goals, assists, mins/goal, mins/goal-assist
2014-15 (041) 2179 07 07 311 156
2015-16 (034) 2374 13 06 183 125
2016-17 (045) 2071 05 04 414 230
2017-18 (029) 1606 02 02 803 402
2014-18 (149) 8230 27 19 305 179
So that's a goal every 305 minutes in the Premiership
or a goal/assist every 179 minutes. Long will get 18-25
in a full Championship season
A players with his power, and averaging 7 goals a season last four seasons,
would be excellent in this league. The multiple for stepping down is usually 2.5 to 3
