Has a team in Premier League history ever had a run of LLLLLWWWWW?

 

We're a win at home to Sunderland away from that.

Not sure about this, but I think there is a team that has done that and it's none other than... (drum roll)... Leicester City 2014/15!

 

Can't remember the exact sequence, but prior to winning 7 of our last 9, didn't we lose 5 (or more possibly) before that? I do remember a really shocking draw with Hull somewhere in that sequence, but it must be something like that.

We never won 5 in a row then. We won 4 and even then it was off the back of just one loss I think seeing as we drew the Hull game.

 

I'm genuinely intrigued to know if a team has ever done such a sequence.

From Watford away to Sunderland away. Five on the trot. Fez said something nice about it in his book - (from memory)  'And what had gone largely unnoticed was that under extreme pressure, knowing that any slip could let in Spurs, we had reeled off five victories on the trot'. Maybe someone can put up the real passage.

Question...


So what is the longest winning streak for a new manager? How long the others?

Guardiola/Ancelotti with 6, but I'd image they had tougher match ups

Good shout.

 

I was thinking Barnsley 2013 lol I have no words to describe how bad that was from us.

I can't believe that was only four years ago.

We'd been awful for a while going into that but that was worse than the rest combined. You had to see it to truly believe how bad we were. Barnsley deserved to win by at least 5.

I know you were, just being pedantic ;) Schmeichel had a blinder and stopped it being 6-0, we were that awful.

 

It truly was the worst display of the season, yet signalled a recovery of sorts (one defeat in six to reach the play-offs) before the Watford game and everything after that, as we know.

I am still haunted by it.

 

Amazingly of the 18 in the match day squad, within 4 years:

5 had PL winners medals

1 had won the Golden Boot

3 had played for England

1 had transferred for £12 million

2 were shortlisted for Championship POTY

One was also his runner up for Golden Boot

One won picked up a PL winners medal and a Championship Runners Up medal on the same day.

 

I estimate about 11 of these players (not counting loans) eventually left the club for around £21m (Schlupp £12m, Nugent £4m, De Laet £2.5m, Wood £2.5m, Marshall £1m, Moore £1m). Not a bad return altogether!
