From looking at the above stats, it seems we have had difficulty fitting our new recruits such as Anthony Hartigan, Hiram Boateng and Will Swan into a winning team.

Will Swan has come off the bench and helped us win at Crewe away and Walsall at home. He also came off the bench and scored against AFC Wimbledon at home.

Will Swan should start every week for me. His goals per minute is excellent.

His movement and energy are also something that shouldnt be underestimated.

I was watching how he gives himself that yard whilst playing off the shoulder. Very clever player indeed, who should be starting when fit

Is it just a coincidence that we have such poor results when Swan starts or is there something fundamental in the set up when he starts.

Would be interesting to see what the defence looked like on some of the losses. I'd wager the defence would contain Bowery and/or Akins. Maybe perch and o'toole too. How many games had he started with Hewitt Hawkins Harbottle and Macca in the XI? Plus Gordon at RWB if its a 3 CB formation.

Hawkins, Harbottle and Hewitt ("Triple H") have a very good record when all three of them start in league games - P8 W5 D2 L1

Hawkins, Harbottle, Hewitt and McLaughlin's record is even better when all four of them start - P7 W5 D2 L0

Hawkins, Harbottle, Hewitt, McLaughlin and Gordon have started three games together - P3 W2 D1 L0

The defence has included Jordan Bowery or Lucas Akins in 4 out of 7 defeats although Jordan Bowery had a good game in three different defensive positions at Salford City and Lucas Akins was our best defender at Sutton United.

Defence in League Games Lost
v Salford City (Away) Lucas Akins, John Joe O'Toole, Riley Harbottle, Stephen McLaughlin, Jordan Bowery
v Leyton Orient (Away) Elliott Hewitt, John Joe O'Toole, Riley Harbottle, Stephen McLaughlin*
v Sutton United (Away) Lucas Akins, John Joe O'Toole, James Perch, Riley Harbottle, Stephen McLaughlin
v Crawley Town (Away) Jordan Bowery, Elliott Hewitt, Oli Hawkins, Riley Harbottle, Lucas Akins **
v Swindon Town (Home) Kellan Gordon, John Joe O'Toole, Oli Hawkins, Elliott Hewitt, Stephen McLaughlin
v Bradford City (Home) Kellan Gordon, Riley Harbottle, James Perch, Elliott Hewitt
v Harrogate Town (Away) Jordan Bowery, John Joe O'Toole, Oli Hawkins, James Perch, Kieran Wallace

The number of defeats for players in defence
John Joe O'Toole 5
Riley Harbottle 5
Elliott Hewitt 4
Stephen McLaughlin 4
Oli Hawkins 3
James Perch 3
Jordan Bowery 3
Lucas Akins 3
Kellan Gordon 3
Kieran Wallace 1

* = Started with a back 5 but then switched to a back 4 in 1st half
** = Switched to a back 4 in 2nd half

Those stats really do tell you all you need to know. If we can keep our main back 4 or 5 available then they can compete at the top end, but when injuries or suspensions inevitably happen and we’re forced in to just one or two changes the depth in defence just isn’t cutting the mustard. It’s important we address this in January if we want to go up.

Just look at the defence in some of those games we lost… really is no surprise that they ended in defeat.

The first half problem:

We're 4th from bottom of the first half league table, only leading once at half time out of 21 games - only Gillingham have been leading as few times as we have. In our 10 home games we've never been leading at half time, we've been drawing 9 of these but no other team in League 2 has not been leading at half time at home, and only Wigan of the other 91 clubs in the league hasn't been winning at half time at home. Leyton Orient, Bradford and Barrow have been leading 10 times at half time.
Source: https://www.soccerstats.com/halftime.as ... e=england4

The problem is that we've conceded 6 goals in the first 10 minutes of all of our games - the highest of the 72 clubs in the Championship, League 1 and League 2. Only Hartlepool and Harrogate are anywhere near us with 5. We're 4th from top of the second half league table, but probably because we've had to chase games after giving teams a head start. We could do with getting out of the traps quicker.

It's been a good 2022. Now let's turn it into an even better 2023!

Interestingly, six of the top seven here were not promoted last season.

Just looked at our possession stats this season and we have lost or drawn a surprising number of games when we have dominated possession. Some of these games are when we have gone one or two goals down away from home. 51-56% possession seems to suit us the best.

AFC Wimbledon (Home) 69.7% Win (AFC Wimbledon had a player sent off in 1st half)

Who would have thought it, from these stats Gordon can’t defend and O’Toole’s performances have dropped off a cliff since last year

To be fair to Kellan. He's only in 4 of the teams Tippy Tappy Football has listed under defeats, not 5. And 3 of those 4 were in a back 4 playing right back, which isn't his strongest position. Hardly the players fault.

I think he's missing from the leyto orient team sure he played wing back then rw in the 2nd half. Are these teams listed in how they start a game or finish?

Either way they are top of the current table and need to drop 17 points just to fall out the automatics.

I’d hate to be the bloke who had to list the different positions each player performed in during games. I think you’d probably need about 20 odd pages to describe them all :D :D

Well spotted Gazza. Kellan did start in defence at Leyton Orient but he was playing further forward in the 2nd half when we conceded the goal so I did not include him. The number of defeats for him is therefore 4.

To be fair to Kellan, he had a decent start to the season. After an average game against Orient, he then played really well in wins at Donny and Gillingham, did ok at Crewe away and played very well against Hartlepool at home. He also did ok against Northampton at home. I think he's a player who goes better on good, good/firm ground when the temperature is above 12 degrees C.

I'd like to see him play further forward again with Elliott Hewitt behind him like we started out against Northampton.

One interpretation of that data is that we seem to concede a lot of goals outside the box which could be described as ‘worldies’

Stockport (home)
Barrow (home)
Walsall (home)
Crewe (away)
Colchester (home)

I’m not sure how I feel about those.

It’s expected that we should be scoring the most goals but only come third. Underachieving.

We aren’t expected to be in the top three for preventing goals and don’t achieve it either.

So to sum up, our attack isn’t as good as it should be and our defence isn’t any great shakes either.

It’s a good job stats don’t count. Oh but just a minute, that may just be reflected in the league table.
