National League team of the week

[Yorkshire Blue]

Another bizarre choice with the weakest of our three centre-halves on Saturday making it

(Also Emile Acquah cropping up on the RW)

Don't really see how Young has got in there either. Thought our midfield dominated theirs. Especially in the second half.

They paid more money: Hollywood, and all that.
And our Emile's got a number of well-heeled relatives.

So did the Wrexham fans

I think team of the week is picked on stats rather than passing the eye test. So for centre backs they’ll probably be looking at blocks, interceptions, headers won, tackles etc.

 

[Shrimper Brownie]

Our defence made the Wrexham attack, arguably the best in the league, look average at best. Well done Ollie, although it should be a full SUFC back three in the TOTW

 

[Strykr]

That is bizarre. Kensdale played his part, but anyone who saw the game had to have mooney as the man of the match, even if he faded in the second half. He was the spark.
Hobson and lopata had better games then ollie....

As an aside, Interestingly i overhead some guy saying he was a premier league scout there to watch the game, im sure its a regular occurence but i did honestly wonder who he could be looking at feom the vanarama league to join a prem side!

Indeed. Which is why John Still says there's no substitute for scouting players live.

TOTM is a joke sorry ,should never be taken seiously .

This is TOTW (assuming your M is for month, or did you have your keyboard upside down?).

 

[Texas Eslan]

Those picks (from our game) are just mental aren’t they?! Noor and Cav bossed the midfield and Kacper and Hobbo were the stand out center halves yet not one make the side.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Collin makes it this week

He played competently and kept a clean sheet but I can’t imagine much of this game will make it onto his highlights reel.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Well done Collin. Getting better every game.

 

[Prawn]

Bravo! Collin, the keeper. This will do him the world of good.

We've got a good 'un on our hands.

 

[RHB]

Good job Jake has recovered from injury!!

Hobson should be in every week.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Our defence limit a team to two blocked weak shots off target in a whole game, and none of our defenders get in. Lopata probably makes the game look too easy in this league. So he gets overlooked.

I reckon the organisers of this can only put one player per team max in these, hence the headliner would be the striker who scored twice?

Sometimes stats lie, but the defence this season has been outstanding, and the stats back this up. One of them should be in every week.

AND this has been done with our No.1 goalkeeper unavailable and KM picking either a 19 year old or a loanee 21 year old; both with minimal experience. Brilliant stuff.

 

[stewart]

that team of the week is crap, sorry,why dont they just pick the proper best xi ,not only one from ateam .If 3 deserved to be in it pick 3 .

 

[stewart]

Not putting down Colin but if he didnt have a shot to save i think that goes down to the defence and midfielders. Yes its good for his confidence and for the team .But honestly !!!
