The Joy of Stats

You rely too much on stats in your thinking; there are many things which cannot be quantified easily, and as such require a lot more thought than just putting together a diagram. Take Ameobi's goal tally, 4.5 goals a year over 10 years, almost unparalleled consistency in the modern game, but this doesn't take into account the effect he has on the opposition mentally; he is a fearsome physical presence that would put the shits up any man if you ran into him in a darkened back-alley. So if anything he has been even more valuable to the team than any stats would suggest.
