Crazy Stat Time!

[StanSP]

i think @oxford blue definitely and obviously meant that stat solely for 10th March 2018......

[oxford blue]

Ok, the first time 2 different players with surname beginning with I have scored from the same side in PL (and I think in all top flight football)...

Did you see the BBC stat about us throwing away leads?

 

This did not come as a shock.

Also, I don’t know if the stats are easily produced from somewhere, but it seems like we concede between 35 and 45 minutes a LOT this season.

 

Or is it just me that feels that?

[ScouseFox]

think it’s right that we’ve lost every quarter final we’ve been in, spanning 4 competitions from the johnstone’s paint trophy to the champions league, since the turn of the century. 

 

 there’s already a thread about this. some stat tho.

You can set your watch.  It's quite something how we can adjust that tendency and concede near the 15' break in extra time ... and that FT poster(s) even saw that coming.

 

What on earth does a manager do about that?  Park the bus at 36' til the second half?

Puel has more threads on FT than Leicester City have points in the prem this season.

A lot made earlier this season about Vardy scoring against all of the top 6. I think if my memory is correct tonight he completes the top 4 in Europe for England. With goals against Italy, Germany, Holland and Spain.

Big Game Player!

Can only agree. But when they were the big 4, Vardy was playing for Stocksbridge Park Steels.

[StanSP]

Goals after 21 games for England

Vardy - 7
Owen - 6
Shearer - 4

[Nalis]

Who is our highest ever scorer for England (As in goals scored for England whilst playing for Leicester)? Vardy must be up there. Lineker was before my time but I presume most of his England goals were whilst playing for Everton/Barca/Spurs?

[Gillies Apprentice]

Previous highest was Ernie Hine who scored 4 goals in 6 appearances between 1928 and 1932 ;next was Lineker who played 7 times whilst with us and scored 3. goals .(As per of Fossils & Foxes )

Just reinforces how far have we come.

there's a stat that I'm glad is still about and wasn't broken today considering our record of letting players score their first goals for the club.

 

On the stream I had, the commentator mentioned that Gaetan Bong hasn't scored in 5 years. He came close today when it was 1-0!

[Wolfox]

Is it just me or was this thread way better 2 years ago?!!!

And this from back in August:

 

Seem to remember reading somewhere that Schmeichel Snr only ever faced 3 penalties at Old Trafford. Which just shows how dodgy the refs were back then...

 

[urban.spaceman]

After yesterday Vardy has now scored against every current Premier League side.

 

In fact, if my calculations are correct, the only team he hasn't scored against in the Premier League is Hull.

 

Which might explain this:

7 - Jamie Vardy has ended on the losing side in seven of the matches that he's scored in this season, equalling the Premier League record for a single season (Matt Le Tissier in 1992-93 and Charlie Austin in 2014-15). Painful.

Man City have lost as many games in the last 7 days as we did in the whole of the 15/16 season.

 

*Yes, I know it's in 2 different competitions but that doesn't make it less funny.

If we're playing that then technically we lost 4 in all comps that season. They've lost 7 in all comps so far.

They've lost more in the Champions League this season than we did last season!

5?? Arsenal twice, Liverpool away. Spuds in the Fa Cup and Hull in the League cup. 

Though we did draw both of the cup games initially.

Full-time v Hull was a draw; 1-1.

More insane considering Arsenals invincible's actually lost 6 games that season
