AUTODRAFT

I’ve been looking into Antonio Silva vs James Hill. Who is the better pick? Antonio Silva (£5.0m) 👉🏻DEFCON hit rate: 75% 👉🏻DEFCON p/90: 10.5 👉🏻Total xG: 1.30 👉🏻BPS total: 71 James Hill (£5.5m) 👉🏻DEFCON hit rate: 63% 👉🏻DEFCON p/90: 11.5 👉🏻Total xG: 0.04 👉🏻BPS total: 120 • Silva has far better xG • Hill has far better bps (even without the two goal line clearances) • Both have consistent DEFCON numbers, Hill capable of some huge outings (and has pedigree) whilst Silva has been extremely steady. You’re maybe more likely to get a 10-11 point clean sheet from Hill, but probably less likely to get an attacking return. Having said that… Silva needs to actually take his chances! He’s had a few big misses. But if he keeps getting chances then you’d assume he’ll take one soon. They’re both great. Feels like Senesi vs Hill all over again. I’ll no doubt pick the wrong one 😂 As superb as Silva has been, we do at least know what we’re getting with Hill! I guess the £0.5m saving has made Silva stand out so much that when it’s quite close it does make sense just to get the cheaper guy. Those high bps numbers for Hill do appeal to me a lot mind you, I love the possibility of a 10-11 point clean sheet! But this small sample size doesn’t necessarily mean Silva isn’t capable of this either!
