Some good stats them. Are we not adding the ball watching and flat-footedness for the first or the fact he got his ankles snapped by Neto for the 2nd?

I keep getting told stats don’t mean anything hmmmm.

Neto has been snapping ankles all season. Offer your services to Moyes.

They don't in the round GB, it was an answer to bluenose's obsession with Mykolenko. He isn't the best LB in the Prem but he certainly isn't the worse. TV doesn't show the whole game I. E. follows the ball.
Tarks shove for instance or what led to it. Mykolenko is quite often the last man when Tarks and Keane venture. Moyes thinks Myko is okay and I agree, some don't but Myko is certainly not sh**e.

To be fair stats don't always show the true picture. I mean the centre halfs can have 100% passing rate just because they pass it back and forth to each other.

I agree.

I think Myko has improved since first joining us, happy for him to stay myself.

He is solid, not spectacular or really attack minded. I don't look at LB and worry, but understand why some aren't convinced.
We've also been blessed with quality and popular at LB for a long time before him so he is up against it with fans sometimes.

I imagine those final third passes were predominantly the 5 yard passes to Grealish as he hugs the touch line.
Few more stats:
0 accurate crosses
11 times possession lost
1 tackle won.
