This generally isn't good for my emotional arguments. It doesn't support what I think I see. :0Opinions are great but here's some facts.
In the league:
Jesus has 8 goals from 27 shots (20 shots on target).
Sergio has 9 goals from 30 shots (17 shots on target).
So Jesus hits the target more often and they both have almost identical conversion rates (29.6% / 30%). They both have superior conversion rates to Harry Kane (under 20%), Lookaka, Salah, Morata & Alexis Sanchez.
Of course Raz has a better conversion rate at 36%.

I think the problem is they were scoring virtually anything they touched up to the end of October, and they've struggled to hit the barn door since. I mean, before his recent goal-scoring streak, Silva had only scored 1 of his 27 shots, his stats will look a lot better now but for 3 months they were naff, top-level stats don't give you those nuances that you notice with your eye, only breaking them down into much more detail can you see those trends.
It's the whole ethos of a pep team, the 'team' means more than the individual and completely prepares for the peaks and troughs all players go through...
What's exciting is we could feasibly have 5/6 players on 20+ come may, I'm happy as Larry with that!
oh exactly, we're seeing that in full swing this season. I was just putting forward a reason as to why some of our stats don't necessarily reflect what we've seen from certain players in recent games.
This :)Well stats for thew whole season won't reflect just recent games but they are relevant to the point I responded to. Also, what happens over the whole season is going to be most relevant for the league: form will fluctuate for most players.
Both players though have this season to date bettered their average conversion rate for their whole Premier League careers; Sergio rather more so than Jesus. Bottom line is that over all their league games for City, Jesus has the better conversion rate.
The fact is that too many people spout opinions based on what their eyes tell them that are not supported by fact. Opinions are often subjective on player performance but also they are often simply wrong.
