SUMMER 2024: THE BIGGEST LEAVERS 📉

In 2023-24 Posh finished 4th with 84 points, conceding just 1.10 xG a game.

Then, in the space of a summer, four of the most-used players were gone — three of them from the defence:
🔹 Ronnie Edwards — sold to Southampton (July 2024)
🔹 Harrison Burrows — sold to Sheffield United (July 2024)
🔹 Josh Knight — joined Hannover 96 (June 2024)
🔹 Ephron Mason-Clark — sold to Coventry in Feb 2024, loaned back to the end of the season

171 league starts between them in 2023-24. Zero the next season.

From the first game of 2024-25, chances conceded jumped to 1.49 xG a game — and Posh finished 18th. It's never fully come back.

Now the question for Robbie Savage: can he rebuild what that team had?

The numbers show WHEN it changed, not everything that changed it. Who do you think was the biggest loss? 👇
