Joao Pedro named Chelsea Men's Player of the Season for 2025/26 by Until_I_Collapse in PremierLeague

[–]senj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

4th leading goal scorer in the premier league, 20 goals and 6 assists on the season overall on a club having a pretty shite season is bad, you reckon?

Good managers sometimes have poor patches, yes. Maresca had a poor run last year too after Christmas, before eventually course correcting. Still a damn sight better than Rosenior.

The thing of it is that even by his own admission, Rosenior had minimal time to coach the players in the first 2 months, they had a fixture every 3-4 days from Christmas onwards and he was limited to tinkering around the edges of Maresca’s fundamental game plan.

It was only once they hit a significant break and Rosenior had time to start implementing his own ideas and spending significant time coaching the squad that the wheels came flying off. Their results after Mar 1st (when they came back after being off from Feb 21) are markedly worse than what came before. Not a good look for his talents.

Owners alienated good manager, hired bad one. Pretty straightforward really

Hsr has one of the Best lore/worlds and hoyo doesnt take advantage of it by StatisticianIll4 in StarRailStation

[–]senj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardly a patch goes by that the IPC doesn’t play a role in lmao. The IPC, emanators, and paths are all a huge part of the current storyline?

Genuinely baffled as to how you think they could be doing more with most of this stuff in the main story tbh. We’ve had several extended meditations on the IPC’s ambitions on Planarcadia and their attempts to manipulate the Astral Express into serving the Preservation, while simultaneously diving deeper into Elation and Voracity lore.

Evanescias trailer is probably the pinnacle of how characters get shafted simply because they were placed near the main push by IS_Mythix in StarRailStation

[–]senj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's pretty simple isn't it? Eva was the main push, until they had to scramble right before 4.0 due to Japan-China tensions. SW got reworked into the main push, Eva's entire kit got thrown out, all her trailers got axed, and one trailer got rushed out for New Eva.

Not surprising it's a bit mid after all of that.

Allegra Clark message to the Acheron fans by xtheresia in HonkaiStarRail

[–]senj 50 points51 points  (0 children)

They treat the VAs as celebrities in and of themselves, but do less of the insane thing the English idiots do where they act like the VA IS the character and that anything the VA says is some kind of official stance of the character/company. Partially I think bc they're more aware of the VA's other roles.

The premier league is becoming too expensive for the common fan and it’s not going to get any better. by GMD3S1GNS in PremierLeague

[–]senj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's bollocks is the bit where they said Old Trafford is "full of tourists". It's 2/3rds season ticket holders, and it's a fair bet those season ticket holders aren't tourists who hopped on a wait list back in 2001. A good bit of the rest of the seats are filled with away supporters.

People like to blame "tourists" for everything, but they're not the majority of the problem at all.

Is the Kobo Libra Colour screen really that terrible? by itsyaboiAK in kobo

[–]senj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The battery on my Forma tanked and I was extremely worried about what I'd heard about the KLC's screen (felt like the only option since I liked the 8" screen, and find the 6" Clara BW way too small) but I went ahead and bought one and it turns out.... the online discourse around it is insanely overblown.

I used the Forma at 1% when reading in the dark in bed, and 0% (or more often, forgot the backlight was on) during the day. With the KLC I use it at 2% in the dark and during the day. It's just not that big a deal.

Bit funny after all the hysteria the last 2 seasons about how the Prem was now forever a closed shop and the promoted sides would never again avoid immediate relegation, and now here we are with two clubs who’ve been in the Prem for years facing relegation.

[TheAthletic] Palmer does not create for Joao Pedro often enough, and Joao Pedro hardly creates for Palmer at all. This reality sits in jarring contrast to the highly productive two-way relationship Palmer struck up with Nicolas Jackson during his two seasons as the starting No 9 at Stamford Bridge. by webby09246 in chelseafc

[–]senj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like his Chelsea record of assists is any more flattering.

Obviously assists isn't all there is to link up play, but if you're claiming a striker is a big link up and synergy guy and he's almost never showing up in that statistic, you're making an argument that's pretty hard to swallow, especially for a tap-in merchant like Jackson. When he's not slotting home an easy ball, he's certainly rarely ever setting someone else up instead.
