Breaking records/stats thread

[aguero93:20]

But isn't our defence shit?

It is indeed, it can be got at. The only issue is that you need to have the ball to do so.

 

[Chappie]

And 7 of those goals came in 2 matches
Which leaves 18 goals conceded in 32 games
And we keep getting told we can't defend

Read something on Twitter that without a goalkeeper at home this season we would still be top of the league,so few saves/shots on target against us.

Am I allowed to laugh at this without being lynched :-)

Would it stop you if we said no?

As per Liverpool - yep it was 16 goals against from 42 games in 78/79

Yep. That season was pretty phernominal for Liverpool stats wise (though tglhey lost to Forrest in the European Cup early on.)

So; let me get this right. You're saying that season was pretty phenomenal for Liverpool, stats wise?

Danny Murpy is one of Hodgson/Colloughn’s cronies and was involved in a very suspect game when Hodgson was manager of Fulham and Moss was the ref.
He’s placed in the media to big up his corrupt mates, hence the shit he came out with ‘putting a foot in’, the guy’s a crook and should be ignored.

Of course it was - statistically it's the best League season performance ever!
Liverpool 1978/79 Old Division 1 Record:
P42 Home W30 D8 L4 F A GD +69 Home (W19 D2 L0 F51 A4 GD+47) Away( W11 D6 L4 F34 A12 GD+22) Pts 69 (@2 pts per win) All time points total 98 (@3 points for a win)
- Best total points record ever = 98 (@3 points for a win)
- Best home record ever = W19 D2 (59 points @3 points for a win))
- Best goal difference in the old division one. +69
- Best goals against record in the old division one (16). Only Chelsea have bettered it since with 15 - but that was in a 38 game season not a 42 game season.
- 3rd best away win record in Old Div 1 = 11 (behind Spurs 16 @1960/61, Arsenal 14 @1930/31 - level with WBA @1921, Sheffield Wed @1929/30 & Arsenal 1970/71)
Plus:
FA Cup Semi-Finalists (lost to Utd 1-0 in the replay - Both at Maine Road)

We can take the best record of them all which kind of shows how good our season is.
Best total points/overall record -> currently +90 (12 remaining)
We have also dropped them to 3rd place in the all-time goal difference list -> Currently +73 (+4 with 4 games to go)

 

[BlueAnorak]

Absolutely crazy - City are so close to breaking so many all time top-flight records it's untrue. So Pep isn't the best? Give over.

 

[Nascent Blues]

I actually meant our club record, rather than the overall one. Didn't the Mickeys concede only 16 goals in a 42 game season, sometime in the mid/late 1970s?

Not discounting history, but I think there should be a distinction between the pre and post pass back rule change.

"History"? What's that?

Apparently the Holy Grail of football that's exclusively split between the rags and scousers.

Agree. The good old days when the ball spent 15-20 mins. per game in the keepers' arms.

Quickest managers to 50 Premier League wins:

1. Jose Mourinho (63 games)
2. Pep Guardiola (69 games)
3. Antonio Conte (73 games)

 

[Sheik Yermoney]

It would be fantastic if we could break both the Premier League points & goals record before lifting the trophy next week. 2 wins & 6 goals against West Ham & Huddersfield to take us to 96 points &/104 goals respectively. Very doable with this team.
