I think this was a "we'll just make do" season that turned into something better through the efforts of Key and Randall, and the surprising goal feats of MJ, but then ran out of steam with nothing in reserve
In other words we were completely surprised and unprepared by our sudden success . Sad really , with a little bit of thought and a couple of reasonable players we might have made it and Taylor would be the hero.
As it is........

That's just my opinion Banksy based on how the season has developed. It's not necessarily FCAT

The chart shows that he’s clearly a good player that makes both forward runs and passes. That said, in recent weeks I don’t think he’s performed well. Definitely in need of a rest IMO.

The chart data completely contradicts you last post on the thread mind.

Stats can be made to look good. So archie has better than average ball progression. Does that mean he's any good at football then or what?

The stats show that he’s largely better than most in the league at the things people are saying he’s not doing.

He's not scoring many nor creating many. Stats not required in order to see that. He's been good at being ordinary and generally indifferent to proceedings whenever he takes the field of play. I'll give him that one.

He's another that is young and has potential but at some point we need to start seeing more. A lot more.
