An entirely irrelevant stat.
Correct.

It was irrelevant when the weaker teams were beating top teams with a focus on defense and scoring on set pieces, and it remains irrelevant when a top team like Arsenal adopts the same tactics. Stats are results.

But it does support the original quote “It's more a reflection of modern football than them as a club IMO. We're now watching games for set pieces and long throws.”

If you excluded goals and assists by players whose name starts with S, Liverpool would have finished 5th last year. Makes you think.
If you remove all goals West Ham conceded they'd have 98 points last season and would be champions. Makes you think.
 
Wolves have sacked their manager.


Had to do it sooner rather than later, 10 games in with no wins is horrendous and has them on track for the worst points total in EPL history.

To compare it to that Derby team of 2007/08 who got relegated on 11 points with a -69 goal difference after match day 10;
Derby: 19th position - 1W 3D 6L (6 points) and -17 goal diff.
Wolves: 20th position - 0W 2D 8L (2 points) and -15 goal diff.

Wolves are now equal 4th with 1998/99 Southampton and 2005/06 Sunderland for worst losing streak to start to an EPL season (5 defeats before Wolves got a draw at Spurs).
And while Palace 2017/18 and Portsmouth 2009/10 have the record for the worst start to a season with 7 defeats to start those years, by match day 10 in those seasons both teams had a win.

There might be some hope for Wolves in that Bolton on match day 10 were 20th with 1W 2D 7L and recovered to finish 16th but they severely underachieved with the talent in the squad.

Big 3 points, amazing what happens when you don't play a slow midfield.

Potts and Fernandes both good. Gotta say Newcastle were really poor after their goal though, they look tired and spent already.

Anyone else having audio sync issues with Stan? When I watch replays of games on my laptop the audio slowly drifts out to about a second of lag by the second half. I've done all the classic clear browser cache, try another browser etc and no dice. Wondering if it's a me issue or if anyone else has experienced this.

Did you get a solution to this? I also have this problem watching replays.
