glamdring Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Nobody takes notice of post match analysis anyway, but just because they only had 2 shots on goal and you had 31 doesn't mean their manager still won't be wondering how they weren't able to win the game!

postal postie Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 the ireland manager is wondering how he wasn't able to win the game. in otherwords 'how the hell did we only come away with 2 shots? we're much better than them' sounds reasonable to me.

glamdring Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 They had 100% shots on target, your team was very profligate, so they probably feel they should have created just a couple of shots more and would have won 1-2 while your players blazed shots high and wide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Come on, guys. In real life, no pundit would say something so ludicrous as that in circumstances like this. Slovakia were clearly far more active going forward. However, it doesn't matter. The analysis is cosmetic. It's a nice touch, although there isn't a large enough variety of things to be said.

Bongo-Bongo Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I think the analysis looks more at possesion and pre-match odds then the number of shots. And at the end of the day, it's a completley meaningless statement so I wouldn't worry about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup I pay it no attention I work on the assuption that the pundits are a cross between Alan Shearer and Andy Townsend plus the illegitimate offspring of Mark Lawrenson and Ian Wright.
