Hull City boss Steve Bruce added to his forward options late last week by acquiring Danny Graham on a season-long loan deal from Sunderland. The former Swansea man is the club’s seventh signing of the summer and follows the likes of Allan McGregor, Curtis Davies, Maynor Figueroa and Ahmed Elmohamady to the KC Stadium as The Tigers prepare for life back in the Premier League.
Having fallen out of favour under Paolo Di Canio after just six months at Sunderland, Graham’s security of game time looks set for a significant increase in the season ahead. Judging by his new manager’s comments, it’s clear that Bruce – who has an option to make the deal permanent at the end of 2013/14 – is a huge fan of the 27-year-old:
10 years, 11 months agoSecond set of rotations. Now it’s time for the 3x1.
It’s rather ironic these are being posted under the Danny Graham article, a man who helps clean sheets along nicely.
If you missed part one on the 2x1 rotations, complete with all the methodology explanations, it is here: http://bit.ly/15cHeHZ
Three defenders, one of which you play every week.
Meanwhile you have two better defenders to be ever present in your team.
In theory the ratings here should be considerably better than the 2x1 ratings, since you get an extra fixture each week to choose from.
Our best 2x1 rating was -4.28 off a fixture difficulty score of -38.5
The 3x1s have lower ratings from better fixture difficulty scores.
That makes sense as the third team contribute 50% compared to the other two teams (100% to 150%) or 33.33% of the total to put it in different terms.
Our best rating is now -3.68, from a fixture difficulty score of -51.5
