Crazy Stat Time!

Mason Mount is the first English-born player to score a goal for the Blues under an English manager since 1996.

4 times in the last 5 seasons we have not lost at Stamford Bridge. Level on points since Kante moved too!

 

Best away record against one of the Top 6 sides.

Would honestly have much preferred that Kante stayed, but that’s a different issue. 

 

I still really miss him.

Ditto. We got the best out of him for that one glorious season though.

 

Can only wish him the best. Just hope to god he gets out of the sinking ship that is Chelsea. He deserves better than that.

Great stat from Totally Football Podcast:

 

Our game versus Sheffield Utd will be the first ever top flight game where both teams have won the top flight but not in the 20th Century!

 

 

 

Sheffield United - 1898

Leicester City - 2016 (incase you’d forgotten!)

I know it’s only 3 games in but it really gives me a warm feeling to see us near the top of the table again. 

 

 

“Shut up Urban”

 

OK. 

[st albans fox]

Wolves are 18th

if they win by two tmrw, they go above us

 

i spend the first month of every season telling my young’uns not to look at the table !

OK. 

 

Depends on the definition of near.

 

Yes, we are only two places from top but four points behind after three games extrapolated over a season leaves us nearly forty points behind the leaders.

But still 3rd.

As my Irish missus says - "we are turd in the table".

 

I can spot quite a few turds in that table TBH, most of them currently below us.

Does she say we get tree 🌲 points for winning

Jamie Vardy on 81 goals has equalled Mike Stringfellows post-war record as highest City goalscorer in the top flight.

[Aus Fox]

81 top flight goals, come on Jamie Lad, bang in the other 19 this season and bring up the ton with us!

[shailen]

Just something to ponder over. If Jamie Vardy had been playing PL football all his career from the age of 20 ish, how many goals would he have by now?

 

He was 27 when he first played in the PL so assume he had played another 6 seasons. At an average of 15 per season that would be another 90 to add to his 81 to take him to 171 PL goals.

 

Obviously its all hypotethical but I just wanted to demonstrate how amazing his record is and how lucky we are to have a player like him.

OK. 

Only 3 points above the relegation zone. Rodgers out!

Looks good, reminds me of a few years ago

Shots on target

 

Against Wolves - 1 (Barnes)

Against Chelsea - 3 (Perez, Tielemans, Ndidi)

Against Sheffield Utd - 2 (Vardy, Barnes)

 

Barnes has 1/3 of our total shots on target while playing 55 minutes over the last three games.

This is the first time we've beaten Newcastle in the League Cup

[Hammo]

All of our last four League Cup games have gone to pens. Also five of the last six.

What about when Preston played Sheffield United in 1898?
