Came across their twitter account. They have some fun stats - here are a few: Arsenal (Giroud, Podolski, Walcott & Cazorla) and Bayern (Mandzukic, Ribery, Muller & Gomez) were the only sides with 4 players on 10+ goals Antonio Valencia created fewer chances last season with 40 than Stewart Downing (66), Aaron Lennon (66) and Matt Jarvis (46). Knock and run. James McCarthy made the 12th highest total (1885) of completed passes last season in Europe's top 5 leagues. More than Gundogan and Hamsik. Top 5 dirtiest players in the PL - Craig Gardner, Dean Whitehead, Matthew Lowton, Steve Sidwell, Steven N'Zonzi. Only Martin Skrtel (85%) achieved a higher tackle completion rate than Kolo Toure last term on 74%. More than Agger (72%) & Carragher (70%). Manchester United's Javier Hernandez is the only player to net a competitive goal for Mexico in 2013. PASS ACCURACY: Europe's top 5 leagues this season - Serie A: 81.5% Premier League: 80.5% Ligue 1: 78.6% Bundesliga: 78.3% La Liga: 77.8%. PASS ACCURACY: The worst 5 teams in Europe this season - Levante 68.9% Osasuna 69.0% Stoke City 70.3% Reading 70.7% Espanyol 71.8%. New Chelsea forward André Schürrle finished last season with a conversion rate of just 11.2%, despite the respectable shot accuracy of 57%. Top 5: Most Lethal Strikers In Europe (conversion rate) 5. Giampaolo Pazzini – AC Milan, 4. Gonzalo Higuain – Real Madrid, 3. Lionel Messi – Barcelona, 2. Dario Cvitanich – Nice, 1. Miroslav Klose – Lazio (60.5%).
I really just stuck them up there as fun facts. But I don't think a correct stat can be "wrecked". It can be misinterpreted and often is, but the stat is true.
