Only ever going to be one winner this year. Has anyone calculated where we would be in the table without a Danny’s goals?

I had to know the answer, so I calculated how our results would differ if all of Ings' goals just went ****. These are the results it would change, and yes the date format is MM/DD that's how we roll over here.
10/19 D -> L
11/23 D -> L
11/30 W -> D
12/4 W -> D
12/21 W -> D
12/28 D -> L
1/1 W -> D
1/11 W -> D
6/28 W -> D
7/9 D -> L
7/16 D -> L
17 points, so we'd be on 32 and needing some good fortune to survive on the final day. I'm actually surprised it's not more
Were's my summer? Sunny intervals and occasional showers over the next couple of weeks. Not sales weather.You cant quite use that as a direct comparison, as we wouldnt have played with 10 men. Some of his goals would be replaced with goals from someone else, even a Shane Long couple. So likely we may have turned a draw or two into a win, and a loss or two into a draw. Still would be pretty poor though.
Besides, we will find out next season when he is sold in the summer![]()
Yeesh I think you are all taking this exercise a bit too seriously. Chilco asked where we'd be without Ings' goals, so I investigated a scenario where Danny Ings was replaced by his much less talented cousin, Donny Engs. They look similar enough that a whole season passes before we catch on you see.
It's also not a fair comparison because why should only we lose our leading scorer? I get that Ings has the highest percentage of his teams goals out of anyone in the league. But I think to be fair you'd have to remove the goals from each clubs top scorer.
Losing a top scorer may hit Leicester and Arsenal etc more a we dont have to rely on Danny's penalties
