    That's what they look for.

    I remember watching a documentary on Brentford and this very thing came up. It was something about how if they're getting in the right positons, they will eventually score but it's hard to train someone to get into the right positions so while they're missing, the analysis suggests they'll eventually score loads.

    Max Power was a very good player last season. At one point, he was in the top list of players for tackles, interceptions and blocks. I agree his dead ball deliveries weren’t great, but I don’t agree with those suggesting he would “easily” be replaced.

    Add to this his leadership, he is definitely going to be missed next season. Suggesting there are loads of options better, but are they viable options? Can we tempt them to join us and what makes them “better” than Power was?

    As a player, wont be too hard - Metcalfe can do his job. Ability wise he wasnt all that. As a leader he will be tough to replace.

    Anyway I think it will be a blessing he has gone.

    We play with 3 CBs....yeh he did the dirty work but we need more up the other end of the pitch from our CMs. Didnt register a single goal and probably had about 2 shots on traget all season.

    Honestly think a lot of hot air and faux outrage to Power.
    Thank him for his contribution to last season, in which I thought we'd struggle in the lower reaches of the divison
    Simply move on and we certainly can do better

    I don't get why metcalfe wasn't on corners last season. Whenever power was suspended he took them and they looked 10x better than his
