    Fact is he plays every game when fit.
    Fact is he made your opinion of him stupid

    It’s strange but not uncommon that certain individual will dislike a player from the start, and to justify his initial opinion goes on and on picking any error despite evidence from most other people including the manager who’s extended his contract that he’s actually a decent player.

    Kamil Conteh mentioned a little on social media over the weekend, cant see where it's from though. We were linked to him a few years ago when he left Grimsby. He was one of the two lads who Bristol Rovers rejected bids for the other week along with Hutchinson, it's come out since that Plymouth were the team who bid for Conteh at the time.

    They are fighting it out with Blackburn for Joe Taylor according to Peter O'Rourke.

    I guess that deals will ramp up from today as players will be back in training within the next week most likely?

    Town will want to recoup most of the reported £3,000,000 they splashed out on Taylor so if Wednesday were put off Bailey because of fee I'm not sure they would want to pay a lot more for Tayor.

    Sheff fans seem to think they are trying to get Cameron Brannagan, another sitting CM/DM type from Oxford. Fee would be lower than Bailey they think.

    You don't get a vote - you're the cause of all this kerfuffle.

    Absolutely no chance of that I reckon. I'm thinking he probably stays now May has gone and fights it out with Radish and Fletcher

    Seriously? Only one in twenty of his long diagonals reached their target? That’s nonsense. There’s no way GA would have had him keep doing it if they’d been that ineffective.
    Park’s quoted figure above of 37.4% is much more realistic.

    His G/A output is superb for a CM. Will be a cracking signing for them.

    Managing the Gibralter U19s currently which is a funny coincidence because at his peak as a player, that was about his level.

    Taylor is only 23 so has potential resale value. Always a premium for goalscorers too.

    You think he had more than a one in 3 success rate with the diagonals? Wow!

    It was 4.9 per game that hit its intended target and yeh, 37% success rate.

    The stat is slightly off. He did hit on average 4.9 (rounding up) long passes successfully per game. But it's not a percentage stat, it's the actual number of successful passes rather than a percentage.

    His accurate long balls are 37.4% which is on the lower side of the players who ping long balls every game. As Parks screenshot shows, Baldwins was actually the second worst success rate of long passers in that top 8/9 players listed in the screenshot. Based on his stats last season, you would see 5 successful long balls per match from Baldwin, but they'd come from 14 or 15 attempts.
