This is what one person on the Derby forum wrote about his stats last season... 'I know a lot of people don't like the stats like xG, but there's an equivalent for Assists called xA, which essentially just shows how good the chances he created were. He scored one of the highest xA in the league (around 10), but only got 5 assists, basically saying he created a lot of good chances, but Coventry's strikers weren't good at finishing them. By all accounts, he was a very very good creator of chances. He definitely needs to improve his finishing, but the rest of his game is very very solid.' A lot on there seem to rate him.
Yes hes a winger, scored the 2nd goal vs us at oakwell last season in the 2-2 draw with Coventry and scored very highly on data for dribbles completed and chances created so was unlucky not to have way more assists than he did. Looks a good prospect for sure.
Any idea if he is left or right sided? I assume if we're spending a bit on him, he'll be expected to starting (if he does well in training etc), so I wonder at whose expense
Can play either and is left footed. Think he prefers playing on right to cut in and shoot like how he scored vs us
If you bother to read the derby County forum link it reads that they want Pinnock irrelevant of what Thomas is.
If you can be arsed to go on the Coventry forum, about 4 pages deep theres about 5 pages on him. Very complimentary, and what stood out is they reckon he'd be even better playing with a big fella up top to convert his crosses (know anyone) and that he works his knackers off and really good defensively which is a quality Stendel likes. Sounds decent, but still not the finished article.
