Karanka v MON & Keane

[JWJW]

When people know they have a weak argument, they tend to use a player who has had minimal starts and lots of 10 minute run outs as sub - and use the Games played (as against using the more correct minutes player) statistic to make the player look bad..

Yes, a 1 minute run out as sub counts as a game played.

So someone with 10 games played might actually have played 10 minutes in total, against another player who played 10 games (for 90 minutes each game) and played 900 minutes.

Games played 10 each, one has played 10 minutes and the other 900 minutes...……...and then you compare the games played stat...….

Its a very weak argument and its used to grab fake headlines as opposed to be of any real significance.
