24 League games under ML...

Home
- 3 win = Sunderland, Newcastle, Fulham
- 4 draw = Liverpool, West Ham, Stoke, Hull
- 5 loss = Man Utd, Arsenal, Everton, Man City, Spurs

Away
- 3 win = West Brom, Palace, Fulham
- 2 draw = Norwich, Aston Villa
- 7 loss = Spurs, Southampton, Cardiff, Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd, West Ham

This season against the top half (10 teams) Home = 1 win, 2 draw, 5 loss / Away = 0 win, 0 draw, 6 loss
This season against the bottom half (9 teams) Home = 2 win, 2 draw, 0 loss / Away = 3 win, 2 draw, 1 loss

Against top half teams = 5/24 points at home = 20.8% 0/18 points away = 0%
Against bottom half teams = 8/12 points at home = 66.6% 11/18 points away = 61.1%

Now based on those averages. At seasons end, ML could have had......drum roll please........

Top half teams Home = 10 at 20.8% = 6 points
Top half teams Away = 10 at 0% = 0 points

Bottom half teams Home = 9 at 66.6% = 18 points
Bottom half teams Away = 9 at 61.1% = 16 points

So on average, ML was on course to get us 40 points.

Monk on the other hand

Against top half teams = 0/0 points at home = 0% 0/3 points away = 0%
Against bottom half teams = 4/6 points at home = 66.6% 1/3 points away = 33.3%

Now based on those averages. At seasons end, GM could have had......drum roll please........

Top half teams Home = 10 at 0% = 0 points
Top half teams Away = 10 at 0% = 0 points

Bottom half teams Home = 9 at 66.6% = 18 points
Bottom half teams Away = 9 at 33.3% = 9 points

So on average, GM is on course to get us 25 points.

Granted hard to judge properly just yet, but those claiming we are already better off are smoking something. And as much as you want to pretend our fortunes have changed, the stats back up that so far its got worse. GM's results against lower clubs are already worse than ML's, ML played 10 games against bottom half, of which 6 were away. ML played 14 against top half, of which 8 were home. So a horrible set of fixtures. Yet your blowing kisses up Monks arse for getting a worse point return rate on the manager you think we rightfully sacked. Beggars belief.

Swanselona - you have far too much time on your hands. LOL. Whatever figures you come up with, it's still a fact that Laudrup has left. Get over it.
 
If you don't mind valley , I would like you to end my account please. Good luck to most , good riddance to some .

No need to close your account. Just stop posting if you don't want to. Or maybe take time out to calm down - but I'm not sure you'll ever get over Laudrup being sacked.

so please stay

I do have lots of time on my hands. But then, if as you say Laudrup has left, and get over it, why did you feel the need to bring up your little stat point unless it was to respond to those backing Laudrup, get over it Plastic, he is not here, you don't need to compare ;)
 
There seems to be 2 camps here atm, Laudrups Swansea and Monks. I cant really agree with Laudrups sacking but its done and theres no looking back but I dont see the need to compare him and Monk, Monk is probably just holding the fort while we wait for the summer. If we give a full time prem manager's job to someone who has never managed before I would be shocked but I think him and the team have enough to avoid relegation so there's no great rush and its worth waiting for the right man.

Morgan prepare yourself for a shock, He is to be announced the manager for next season once he finishes his premiership coaching badges which he has nearly finished...
 
Absolutely, how many league games has Monk played? how many has he lost? Will he have the benefit of Michu soon? what will be the variable effect of the current break? Have we hit our best form yet? One thing I do know though, and that is we are not going down now, and that's all I'm interested in, this will not be a season I will forget in a hurry!................<ok>

Bold prediction Phil. Hope you are right, especially as teams right below have games in hand. If results go their way we are only one point off relegation.

If we fail to take 3 from West Brom it will be very tough for us. We will then have Everton and Arsenal away, which I don't hold out much hope for right now, followed by the 7 final games, none of which will be walk overs. Squeaky bum time approaching!




Yes indeed, but it represents how I feel about the quality we have in our squad and the momentum, focus, and motivation under Monk now!............<ok>
 
Who sacks a manager that won half his final 6 games anyways , it's not like he didn't win any of his last 6 games
