honestly I don't know, can't immediately think of any others?

Salah off may cost Liverpool here, but understandable, heroic effort to play that well whilst fasting!!! I remember I was supervising some drilling works out in Abu Dhabi during Ramadan, workers dropping like flies and sleeping in the shade under the machines, haha

couldn't agree more... I know it's probably a British thing, in other countries play acting is seen as part and parcel of the game, but he has to be one of the most annoying, whiney footballers I can remember, and a shocking role model / captain... I hate when England play Portugal, as there are 11 Brunos haha

not sure I'm seeing some of the trends you point out tbh in those first 2 figures, to me it looks more like consistency has been lost and we are all over the place! or it could be the beers... the running net xG. is damning, though I do hate xG

I appreciate your passion for stats here, I do love a good graph, but I'm quite glad I don't spend this much energy on City

as a neutral, enjoying the FA cup games this weekend!

at least it's not as much of a mess as rugby union!

my bad, I misread the price per game number as the increase from last year! long day at the office haha

...

probs not renewing...

utter embarrassment... not renewing with this idiot involved.

it's mad. we probably only need 4 points over 10 games to be safe, but until we win again, and the teams below keep picking up points... what a mess.

had similar thoughts myself... if the form of the last 4 repeats over the next 4 we are almost in the bottom 3. We need a win ASAP...

I think the number of teams below us will just about save us, BUT if you look at the last 4 results for ALL of the teams below us (ignoring Rotherham who are down!) they have ALL picked up a good number of points, and we are only 6 points (or less) ahead of them. If we lose the next 4 and they all pick up 4-6 points, we are right in it. They are almost all on good little runs at the minute. We are within 6 pts of them all... I know they will play each other, etc, but this worries me. Last 4 games of the teams below us: City 0pts Swansea 7 Plymouth 3 Blackburn 3 Millwall 7 QPR 10 Birmingham 4 Hudddersfield 4 Stoke 3 Wednesday 12

they would be fine year 1 wouldn't they? unless we were romping the championship, no way they could charge silly prices in March without knowing we'd go up?

I've only had a ST for 12 or 13 years, despite my age, but went a fair bit before that. I increasingly doubt I will ever enjoy a season as much as that Cotts year in L1... getting spanked every week in the prem wouldn't be fun that's for sure, but hoping one year we put together a run in the Champ and get there, but even if I see another 30 seasons I've no confidence it'll happen!!

a Netflix documentary too? haha

even if it was horrendous, and I fumed at the VAR decisions, and all the diving, and the rest of the circus... it would be worth it just to get that monkey off our back... fed up being 'prem ready', etc

will be interesting, and a nice change, if the top 3 in the prem are this close with a few games to play... a rarity

breaking up their team and bringing in so many new players, I just think it's such a low chance for success, especially when you try and play like Man City...

removing FFP, or whatever it's called, is the only way so address this isn't it?

what a total down-pantsing... bet the second half is dull haha

The commentator just said xG for arsenal only 1.8, but 5 goals... ok... but before the first went in they had THREE enormous chances. Totally dominating with 80% possession, 16 shots. 7 on target. But only 1.8 xG This stat has always been baffling to me...

IF Horner is removed, Newey has a clause that means he can leave, I think, but what idiot what want to break up RB from inside? Oh yeah, that wife-beating nut job Jos V

rather importantly, it wasn't lewis winning. when does Sergio beat max?
