losing a striker shouldn't increase your chances of scoring...and Eggman and Vago not much in it tbh

 

Aye Callum, Why was Blunder taken off instead of Flack?

 

I was waiting on you moaning about that. The fact of the matter is Lightning have pretty much completely wasted the Saints and Eggman was keeping you in the game. When he went so did your chances.

 

Not sure tbh. I put it into the sim for Flack to come off so not sure.
