I would be tempted to give Santos or Danilo (if fit) a chance instead of Sangare.

Yates comes in for Sangare for me.

Yates comes in for Sangare for me.

Sangare had a higher pass success %, 89% compared to 78%. Sangare had the most tackles & intercepts Sunday also out of our midfield, Yates made 1 in 25 mins compared to Sangare’s 6 in 90,

Just because Sangare looks terrible, doesn't mean he actually was..

Just because we have won when Yates has started, doesn't mean it will always happen,

Sangare continuesines for me. Yates will get his chance eventually

Thanks, I find this sort of thing useful, far better than player x is brilliant because we won and player y is crap because we lost.

Completely agree, it's much more difficult to judge central midfielders based solely on the eye test. Stats are really useful, thank you. 

Be interested to see the stats in comparison to the rest of the team. Also, good to know that maybe Sangare isn't too bad after all!

Mangala and Sangare are both on 4 Yellows, so its likely Yates/Santos/Danillo will get a chance soon.

Stats can be misleading too.

I don’t get the negativity around Sangare, he’s been pretty decent so far with the exception of the missed chance against Luton.

Yes. He’s not been a standout player but when he has played his quality is evident for all to see

The pace here is a massive difference to the Dutch league so no wonder his fitness isn’t quite up to scratch.

Once he’s fully fit teams will fear him and he’s not going to be fully match fit without playing games.

It’s similar to Lodi last season.
He struggled for the first few months, and alot were championing Toffolo to replace him.
Coops knew his ceiling was so much higher than Toff so played him into form.

Same with Sangare - huge ceiling and needs to work through this

I couldn't agree more. 

He came from a pretty good team and quite few "big" teams were after him as well. I've always been a big believer in that you don't become a "S**t Player" over night and will always need time to settle in to which I've also been a big believer in getting your transfer deal done earlier to give the player a fighting chance to hit the ground running. 

I have no worries about him and if and when the time comes will make a profit on the lad.

Sangare was poor for the second goal on sunday. he didn’t track the runner from midfield. he was the nearest forest player. That is basic and Most of the time the team under Cooper has been very good at doing those things. Yates and Colback were very good at doing the basics. I think it came shortly after Sangare got a bang on the head which might have had an impact. He does look good on the ball to me and worth his place in the team. Yates has to come back in somewhere. Is Dominguez doing enough. Do we need to play Mangala at home. i am not sure. We have four really good central midfield players. It’s higher up the pitch we have more problems.
