Match Day Thread 2016/17 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

That's not what I said, even when he did score he didn't affect the result either (except Watford and some relegation candidates)

 

Not to somebody that believes stats tell all it isn't

 

I think you are the only person I have ever met who views football like this.
Very weird mate.

 

It's called #footballgenius

 

Out of interest, who's goals have won Liverpool the most points this season so far, I'm not talking about the 2nd, 3rd or 4th goal in a 4-0 win, I mean the goals that actually won the points (I know you will have this in a file somewhere).

 

Seems like utter ****ing madness if he puts any stock in to that bullshit.
How extremely ****ed up, on every level!!

 

We're a proper footballing side with a system that isn't based on a #onemanteam

Concepts like "top goalscorer" aren't relevant

We could probably win the league with none of our players outscoring Lukaku #doingalukaku

 

Makes him feel all warm and fuzzy to think 6 goals by one player earnt more points than 10 by another. False sense of security

 

So being top scorer is irrelevant, yet Costa is crap because he hasn't scored enough goals to make a difference in certain games?
I think you are watching a different game to everyone else mate.
Astroball.

 

So you don't know, fair enough .
A bit weird or obsessive that you know that about other teams though

 

You did actually swerve the question too, I never mentioned top goal scorer, just top points earner.

Top scorer is relevant if you're performing at Suarez's level (or Vardy's run last season) when you're basically 1 in 1

If you're top just because you're the only striker in your team then it's a meaningless stat

What is Lukaku being top or second top scorer the last two seasons achieved for Everton?

 

Says Diego a chelsea fan posting obsessively on the Liverpool board

 

Is Costa better than Hazard BTW #topscorer

 

Our top points earner is Klopp

 

We were talking about players we rated, their individual performances.
And what has it done for Everton? Probably earnt them half a dozen league places....
so if the rest of the team is ****, strikers should just give up and be **** aswell, since scoring more goals wont win the team anything?
Is that what you are saying?
Cannot even begin to get my head round this way of thinking.
Seems utterly pointless and a contrived way of making Liverpool, in your head, top of every "relevant" statistic.

 

What did Suarez achieve for you being top scorer?

 

Diego is a United fan.
I'm the Chelsea fan
