2024-25 EPL Season

Yes - Konate dominates Saliba in the areas he is better at. Saliba doesn’t dominate Konate at anything.

Not my graph - just reading the numbers. Numbers are what they are

Except those numbers are obviously flawed. Who on earth thinks Saliba isn't good with the ball in his feet? And worse than Konate? Just about nobody watching the game.

I gave you the numbers. Interceptions, pass %, long pass %, ground duels won, etc....
Great Konate is better in the air.
As for the rest of the important stats,
I'm sure my stats answer your "by what metric" question.

I think they are both good

Insane for Caicedo considering how much possession Chelsea has. Guys is alone defensively in the midfield this season most matches.

at the start of the season you could get odds of 1,000,000 to 1 that there'd be a Manchester Derby in the Championship next year.

best odds you can get now are around 300 to 1

that 2005 jump was ridiculous and really set the stage for the crazy spending to come

Man Utd has used their option to extend Maguire's contract until end of the 25/26 season.

What a response from Palace to being asked to up their bid for Ben Doak

"individuals from Saudi Arabia" ... phew I thought it was surely the nation state backing this /s

Knew Forest would be at the top in average time. Sels in particular seems to really take his time getting things going again

Curious if Onana’s hilarious antics at the end of the Forest game have any notable impact on United’s average

I notice that one player appears twice here...

T. Piddy.

Enes Unal out for a long time after ACL injury, his 2nd ACL injury in couple of years, the previous one was in Gefafe.

With Evanilson also out long term (broken foot), they might slip down the table a bit and not qualify for Europe.

Will be interesting to see where this goes now, should know by the end of Feb if the CPS deem there to be enough evidence to charge Partey.

Roughly 3/4 of cases passed to the CPS will result in charges, so it seems more likely than not he will be charged

Wonder if we get another impassioned defense from Arteta.

At least Utd binned Greenwood

He's lucky the details/evidence of the rape in Spain didn't make it to the press like the Greenwood evidence did.

United's fans made it clear Greenwood wasn't welcome back, the club/manager/owners would have played him in a heartbeat.

It's a shame Arsenal fans haven't been as vocal

Gold said today that Kinsky gives off a confidence that Spurs players noticed right off. I guess he was an outfield player when he was young which is why he is so good with the ball, he's quite cheeky

Partey or somebody else?

Partey or somebody else?

If it was Partey you'd think the teammates might not be entirely shocked...
