Because it doesn't fit your hypothesis that Dempsey's shit but sort of nearly useful ?

No. Just because...it's a terrible use of stats. I think you've gone a bit wet pants over the EPL index.

Can you do a comparison with Paolo Tremezzani and Kyle Naughton to see who would have been the better left back in the Barcelona team of last year? Pretty much as relevant set of information.

another option to consider, is that bale is moved to striker and gylfi takes over at left wing. im not sure that gylfi would be better than dempsey out left, or whether that would be the best possible team with the players we have atm, but it would be interesting to see how it would work out

Keep your fucking fur on bear, I didn't say they were conclusive proof of anything just food for thought, and they are certainly not useless. They relate to the two players performances in the same league. They say something, just that someone who idolises Clint nearly useful Dempsey is probably not going to want to accept whatever it is they say if it says Sigurdsson may be more nearly useful if given the same opportunity to play in his best position.

I think it's pretty moribund anyway because Holtby will almost certainly take that role for the foreseeable future.

I'm not even angry. More disappointed.

Not yet, make him Parkers understudy for the rest of the season. Sell parker in the summe, use siggurdson as his replacment and spend all our cash on a proper striker

You might as well just buy a specialist defensive midfield player and a striker. Diame is £3.5 million and we'd get that for Parker.
