Interesting Pre-Sunderland Statistics

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Everton have conceded first in each of their last five league games but haven’t lost any of them (1W 4D) – this is the first time this has ever happened in the Premier League.
Very nice record. Shows the team's spirit!



After 782 Premier League games, Everton have a goal difference of +1 (993 goals scored, 992 conceded).

A nice stat is Moyes has never lost against Sunderland.

Koff Sland.

winning 1 and drawing 4 is only 7 points, same as 2 wins 1 draw and 2 defeats.

Shows how important it is to turn those draws into wins.

Points maybe the same but psychologically a massive difference.

Hope we get to 1,000 premier league goals on Saturday. In the goals FOR column please blues

How about these for some Sunderland statistics:

13 shots on target ALL season.

4 of Adam Johnson's 41 crosses have found a team-mate, James McClean has completed 3 from 38. That's less than 10% accuracy between the two.

51% of all Sunderland shots have come from outside the box, the most in the league (Everton have had the least with 32% by the way)

They have a decent defence, but even that will surely break at some point? They are in trouble.

Only one stat I need to look at to tell me that Sunderland are dull, predictable and potentially facing a bottom-half struggle......they have the humungously over-rated Martin O'Neill at the helm. He's a shocker.

All the stats suggest we are going to waste them....but stats don't determine football matches.

They're due a beating with the way they've been playing, and with the way we've been playing it's about time we thrashed a team.



1-1 then.

1-1 then.

This does sound like something we'd do....

These stats are starting to worry me actually. We normally screw things up when everything seems to be in our favour.

We'll end up hitting the woodwork 5 times, have 5 shots cleared off the line, miss a penalty, get a bunch of incorrect offside decisions against us which we scored from, have Fellaini'll sent off for winning a header, then they'll score a goal in injury time that shouldn't have been given because it didn't cross the line.

Its obvious, I'm resigned to it already. 0-1.

Results a foregone conclusion really.

Headline: Great win for plucky Sunderland!

I heard on the radio today that we've had more shots on target than any other team in the top five European leagues

 

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Broke our own record. 6 games conceded first, no defeats.
