Luis Diaz (LW) Barcelona

Mate, he was making his point using your statistics. If he rounded up from 158.7 to 160 I don’t think it’s fair to claim he’s being disingenuous.

This is how you both appear to the rest of us. Can you cut it out and be respectful?

But then I can’t read.

Well to be fair he may have a point there…

I really think Diaz’s situation is aligning for a departure on a free in two years time.

Every source I can find suggests he is on 55k a week - I suspect he is probably on a bit more than that but even so, he won’t be a top earner.

If he wants to go to Barca, they certainly can’t afford him.

It might suit everyone for him to get the end of his contract and leave for free. The economics for Liverpool might suggest it’s best keeping him on a relatively low salary for two more years and say goodbye to him at the age of thirty.

I forgot the ~ mark.

But then @PeachesEnRegalia.

How dare you repudiate my grasp on math.

Oh wait it isn’t you.

Sorry.

I wish you all the best with Alice.

I didn’t claim he was being disingenuous, did I?

Has to be one of the best crash and burns I’ve witnessed on an online forum. Ever.

We’re splitting bollock hairs here. You claimed he couldn’t read because he said 160 instead of 158.7. As someone else pointed out that’s not really a statistically significant difference.

I’m not sure if it was .67, but all of them (except that first one!) were all rounded off. Well, except for Jota’s 2021-22 because it was a nice round number already. Which leads me to a mea culpa: I should have kept them all consistent.

They especially hate it when you don’t do it consistently!

@Nikola am I doing it right?

No, I claimed he couldn’t read because he repeated that number in a way that seemed like a statement about my missing that out. And even with the justification that I read it wrongly, and it was a restatement for emphasis, I had also pointed out the context that it was really similar to Mané’s worst season (as part of the trident), not to mention Firmino’s.

Technically speaking, it is really not a statistically significant difference because there’s no statistical significance about it, so to speak. No one’s comparing distributions here.

You’re on TAN, what did you really expect??? It’s like if you go to RedCafe right now and complain about your erection.

You wasted loads of that minutes on Alice.

Yeah, those data are not normally distributed and you tried to use a parametric test on them. LOL. Do you even stats, bro?

Don’t really want to drag this in further.

Let’s leave it at this.
