(yes, dammit.)

Spurs in 14th on the basis of two wins against RSB ......... really ???

[urban.spaceman 31,718]

We've only conceded more than 1 goal in a game once. And that was because of Mane's dive.

 

We have the joint best - with Man City and Sheffield United - clean sheets this season with 5. Liverpool only have 2...

 

We also have the best disciplinary record in the league.

[Foxxed 4,134]

We're ahead of Kante, Mahrez and Maguire.

[Billy Big Balls 551]

We're currently on track to finish on 82 points, one point more than when we won the league.

There used to be a time we'd pretty much lose every time we were on TV.

We haven’t lost at home after going 1-0 up since 2015 (Arsenal 2-5) please correct me if I’m wrong though 

Is this still really true? If it is it's amazing! Over 4 years!

True, but it's still good to be able to go 4 years in a row without losing a single home league game once we have taken the lead. Even under Puel. Despite probably not going ahead that often under him, at least the record could stay intact.

Thought about this earlier. Used to have a very bad record on TV games going in to this season.

 

Bring on Everton, Watford, Villa, Man City, Liverpool, Newcastle...

Aye that would explain it. Evans also missed an open goal against Southampton which might give negative points, etc. But I mean he has been as good as Soyuncu really. Soy is flashier and has something about him that endears him to the fans, but Evans is no nonsense consistent quality. I wonder actually how he's feeling, I get the feeling he might have at long last found the club he feels at home at. He's playing his best football of his career IMO and the on the job teaching he is giving Soyuncu cannot be underestimated. Soyuncu himself has said he has learnt so much from Evans, and it must be rewarding for Jonny to see not only the praise he's getting in the media, but also the satisfaction of knowing he's turning a good player into a great one next to him.

There was a video posted on here last night where Ian Wright says he thinks Evans must be in heaven playing in this team. He said he's got a great keeper behind him, Ricardo alongside him - pace, Soyuncu next to him - pace, Chilwell on the other side - pace, and if that wasn't enough, Ndidi mopping up danger in front of them.

 

You're right - I expect he probably is enjoying helping Soyuncu out and passing on his wisdom to a clearly stellar talent.

 

Evans and Soyuncu is a great partnership. Possibly close to perfect. Great balance of youth and experience, and they also each have what the other might lack. One wise old head, and one rapid, flair player. Our central defence is a brick wall that Cruyff turns its way out of trouble.

Yeah, really happy with the defense this year. Last year, with Maguire, there was always that feeling we will concede due to Maguire being out of position or being too slow. As you may recall, even last year, when Maguire was out for a few games, our defense was much more solid. We stuck with him so someone will pay £80m for him and also for fear that we lose his mazy runs or forward passing. With Rodgers, that is not necessary as the team in front of Evans and Soy are playing so much better. And of course Soy is more than capable. He is awesome.

I have just checked this.  It is correct. Since Arsenal at home of 26th September 2015, we have not lost a game at home in the PL if we have taken the lead.

Crazy and a statistic: 

 

We are having the best start to a top flight season ever and we have only played 1 of the current bottom 6, of the 8 games left in the first half of the season we play the teams in 4th, 11th, 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 20th.

 

We have had the toughest first 12 games of anyone in the league, including away trips to first, third, 5th and 7th. 

[Grey Fox 280]

I liked this when looking at the current Spanish La Liga table:

 

Barcelona - Played 12, 25 Points, GD 18

Real Madrid - Played 12, 25 Points, GD 16

 

Our current record in the PL:

 

Leicester City - Played 12, 26 Points, GD 21

 

More points and better GD than Barca and Real, same games. 

[Billy Big Balls 551]

Just a little one... Scored 28 conceded 4 in the last 8 games.

We have a great chance of getting 1st place imo. If we can beat the lesser sides.

Love the optimism, but I just don't see Liverpool dropping enough points and we will drop points where we shouldn't. We're good but we will still have a battle on to finish top 4

I think it's still possible however unlikely. Liverpool have about a game every 3 days through December so could drop some points and we could realistically win the next 5. We can atleast get them nervous! Not getting a point at Anfield could be crucial later in the season. 

[Dorkingfox 354]

You always have a chance

Thought this said “to a treble” at first glance. 
 

Got ahead of myself. Ignore me.

I think this truly sums up how good of a start we have had and just how well we are playing. I remember last time when we were top people claiming we hadn’t played anyone good yet  that excuse is out the window this time
