Read that this morning, I was surprised how much detail he was prepared to tell the journalists about his methods. The sign of a man truly confident in his own ideas, he knows the secret sauce is only part of it, the most important factor is still the chef.

Stottie Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Just on goal difference again, but goal difference to points is one of the strongest correlations going. This is from 2011, the relative infancy of stats analysis of football, so the formula might be slightly off given how lopsided the league has since gone with a top one or two, not the top four or six of before. There are many other articles about GD and they all say the same thing = massive correlation with points, and a great predictor of who's actually good for anyone making bets. https://jameswgrayson.wordpress.com/2011/03/06/the-relationship-between-points-and-goal-difference/ Par for a goal difference of zero over a season is 52 points. For Eddie's first 36 games, points predicted off goal difference would be about 53.5 pts vs. the 56 pts gained, but that is probably because our GD has been negatively affected by the Bruce hangover wallopings. Since Eddie's points total is close to the predicted one, we can probably write off theories about unsustainably getting points from lots of flukey wins in February/March. I think it is concern over that that leads people to suggest we should aim merely for mid table and not as high as seventh or eighth. Just for fun, here's the current goal difference table. We're fourth, but are likely to be overtaken by Chelsea (great squad and Potter effect) and Liverpool who have a game in hand. Charitably cancel the Man U 4-0 loss at Brentford and they are still miles off CL. GD suggests Brighton (and us) fully deserve their position. Brentford, Leeds, Palace etc. will rise up the table. Fulham and Bournemouth will sink and the latter will probably be relegated. Leicester are near the bottom, but some combination of new goalie (has to be!) and ditching Brenda should save them.

Wild Geese Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Doesn’t seem real all this, a modern coach choker’s with enthusiasm and drive, a group of players being honed into a attacking ruthless team of winners, striving to be the best their capable off.

The Prophet Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Random question. Am I right in thinking we've only lost nine games under Howe: Liverpool (x3) City (x2) Chelsea (a) Arsenal (a) Spurs (a) Everton (a) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Fucking love Eddie. Can’t quite get my head around how well drilled the team is and how everyone is contributing. Even the players who lack the required quality. They know their job, they’re fit and they work their bollocks off. What a fucking man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 His time out of the game and visit to watch Simeone work has surely had an enormous impact on him as a manager now thus also us. We've got a little Atleti-esque shithousery about us now with hitting the deck/wasting time as well as the defensive solidity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemtizz Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Trippier's experience over there has definitely had an influence with regards to the shithousery. With lesser players I'd argue we're better to watch, too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Going to places like OT, Anfield and at home against Man City with this team and playing like we have, it's scary how effective he will be with a full squad of real quality players.
