Breaking records/stats thread

we've scored 40 more goals than 5th placed Burnley. 40.

Goal difference up to 44 (record is 72)
17th win - 13 more needed to match record
56 goals scored - 48 more needed to match record
52 points - 39 more or 13 more wins needed to equal 89 our record points total for the top flight.
16 wins on the trot - extends the record

Keep going city.

Sorry to be pedantic but the goal diff record is 71 not 72 and the goals score is 103, so 48 more sets a new record not matches old one :)
These are important differences if you’ve had a bet!

Would love to get to 20 straight wins. ;-)

20 straight wins has never been done in the history of English football league top flight (130 years), Serie A (120 years), La Liga (89 years) Bundesliga (54 years) or Ligue 1 (86 years).


What an absolutely insane stat (and achievement) that would be.

I did it from memory! Cheers

are people aware weve dropped the same amount of points after 18 games as our tea lady has legs, surely she should get tea lady of the year.

 

[Sleeping_Easy]

If my maths is right, 15 wins from 20 games should be enough to get the most points in a season record.

 

[BLUE THUNDER]

100 pts and undefeated would be nice ( not greedy or anything).
The 104 goals record is in the bag

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

And another one - First team to beat Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, rags and Spurs before January apparently.

That'd put us on 97 points. 15x3=45. We've still a long way to go.

In the PL, Wolves did it many, many years ago.

Celtic getting royally twatted at Tynecastle (4-0), so it's up to us to carry the torch as the last unbeaten side in the UK.

I think it's just us and Plzen in Europe now. Maybe Barca and Porto.

Another new high point in our history.

Just Barca and RM to catch....

Our team would be talked about for a century if that happens - 100pts, 100+ goals and unbeaten.

Wonder if we will surpass Chelseas start after 22 games. 61 points.

5 points dropped after 22 games ? How did they not reach 100 ?

It is a tough ask to make 100 points. The season is long and the amount some of our players have had to play without full rotation will take its toll. The mental pressure of the CL can mean deflated performances in Feb-May and teams down the bottom start to cause a hell of a lot more issues fighting against relegation.

Delph, Otamendi, Fernandinho and De Bruyne have been heavily used already and without resting them we might have problems that see us miss 100pts.

I'd take 96 for the record.

Plus once the league is in the bag it only takes a small drop off to lose a couple of games, when Arsenal went unbeaten they didn't get the record points total just 90 so maybe they couldn't drop off, don't know how many points they won it by.
