10 Shocking Statistics That Prove Alan Pardew Should Be Sacked
5. Mike Williamson Rated As Teams Most Influential Passer
Stats produced over the weekend revealed the player from each Premier League team that had the best pass usage. Newcastles most influential passer was the lowest of all 20 clubs Mike Williamson. He was one of only four central defenders to achieve this honour but only had 11.8%, showing that Newcastle are poor at advancing the ball up the field. It also shows that Williamson is the nexus of their play, often launching long balls up field to small attackers who arent strong in the air. No wonder they cant score outstanding tactics by Pardew, who has tons of gifted individuals at his disposal and still goes route one.
