MSingh Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) These are some interesting Stats.. Great to see the Hammers with the most successful passes, outside of the Top 4 of course... http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11994_2705370,00.html Edited : Man City = They have the same amount of Shots on Target as the League Leaders, are more accurate with them than the League Leaders, but lie close to the relegation Zone ???????? Defending is so obviously the problem there then surely ?? Edited January 13, 2009 by MSingh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macclad Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Stats make grim reading for Stoke fans with only 56 shots on target all season and the least number of successful passes but to be fair to them they are battling hard and might yet survive come the end of the season.

technocracy Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I am absolutely positive our attacking stats will be changing for us in the 2nd half of the season! Come this weekend we'll have played the 'Top 4' home and away (excluding Arse away) - 11 of our 21 points so far have from playing teams in the top half of the table. As for tacklers I am pretty amazed there isn't a single Stoke player in the Top 5! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbojangles Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Edited : Man City = They have the same amount of Shots on Target as the League Leaders, are more accurate with them than the League Leaders, but lie close to the relegation Zone ???????? Defending is so obviously the problem there then surely ?? Nail on the head Singh Hopefully we will address this very shortly.

He's young enough to adapt to the rigours of the Premiership and has pace while Shevchenko was a tortoise and should never have left AC Milan.

bkkjames Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 speaking of stats, was wondering if any of you lads had the same feeling as I am (and no, I don't need to take a turd), but anyone have stats on goal scoring per game this year vs years past? I know we are down but how is the league as whole? If my suspicions are true, I reckon it's down to the fact that teams are / have splashed out on defensive minded players and are lining up more conservatively.
