Selling him would be cutting our nose off to spite our face ... he’s our best player.
His discipline is a big issue and ultimately will hold him back from playing higher, but I’d rather he played 30 games for us than 0. Simple as that.

season 18/19
Pearson starting -- 30 games-------- 51 points ------- pro rata for a full season 78 points position 5th
Not starting ------16 games ---------15 points ------- " "" "" 43 """ "" 21st
These stats suggest we are very much a one trick pony of a team.
If we hold onto Pearson in the summer then we will be fine next season and possibly content with some additions.
If Pearson goes then don't think it matters who we bring in over the summer, next season will be a struggle.
Maybe the Pearson doubters need to think about the above figures before calling his temperament. His temperament is probably the only thing keeping him here.
Accept that some fans want a nicer friendlier PNE side with no Pearson in it, which is fair enough but you have to be willing to pay the inevitable penalty for that, poor results.

No, but given that he was involved in our poor start and finish and missed the unbeaten mid season period would expect them too be poor.Very interesting stats. Do you have similar stats for Our CR7?
CR7 was playing in a forward position early season and he did his job and goal scoring wasn't a problem , the problem lay with the defence of which he only played a small part. Pearson tends to effect defence,midfield and attack.

We only got 61 points.
If you can’t count, please don’t try and post stats.

£10 / £12m would be good business , yes I am annoyed with Ben , personally don't think
he can change , would love him to prove me wrong though
For all his faults and even though others may command a bigger fee I think he'd actually be the hardest player to replace.
I like the not starting bit.
He's been a liability for a long time. Every time I see him I 'm waiting for him to launch into an eye watering tackle and get sent off again.
There comes a point when we have to cash in if we can and get a midfielder that scores goals and plays a whole season for us.
