Rob W 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2005 According to the "indie" this morning 31% of our goals have been scored from outside the Penalty Area - only Liverpool have scored more (33%) = crap strikers I guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest alex Report post Posted December 8, 2005 No stat is meaningless This one shows we aren't scoring goals at close range - which is where the strikers (cough cough splutter) are supposed to be 65795[/snapback] It shows that 31% of our goals were scored from outside the box. It doesn't show how many were free-kicks, it doesn't say how many of those score closer in were from just inside the box, how many of the other 69% were from headers from set-pieces, how many were tap-ins, how many were pens. So to slightly alter my initial statement, it's a pretty meaningless stat imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm confused. 65833[/snapback] 79% of stats are made up I think, so that probably explains it. It doesn't surprise me actually, as 31% isn't that much seeing as we haven't scored many goals. Haven't the mackems scored more league goals than us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luckyluke 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2005 Goals from outside the box are just as valuable as those from inside the area. The most important stat related to our goals is that we aren't scoring enough of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I've proved you wrong. Also, the point above about it meaning we have route one strikers is bollocks; it may well be the case but the stat you gave neither proves or disproves that.
