    Arsenal are already the posterboys for this fact this season, but just in case any particular posters on here needed further proof

    I would reply but I haven’t got a clue what you are attempting to prove by quoting Turkey v Holland

    Turkey: 34% possession, 73% pass accuracy, 8 shots, 5 shots on target, 4 goals
    Netherlands: 66% possession, 86% pass accuracy, 20 shots, 9 shots on target, 2 goals

    Someone on here likes to wax lyrical about all types of stats and how Arsenal do well in them. The only thing that matters is who scores the most goals. This game epitomises this

    Fair point but could have been clearer from the off 🤣

    What do you think of your season foxy ?

    Think you will finish top 4? Looking doable that’s for sure

    who you referring to Foxy?
    Im not a big stats fan, they are way too easily manipulated. stats can make a shit player look much better than they actually are if manipulated to your argument.

    You guys are doing well this season, Personally I thought you would drop off and finish outside top 4, but you keep getting results and without Vardy playing exceptionally well, you got some quality players coming through as well Fofana looks like he could be a real talent
    .
    Good luck to your boys for rest of season.

    I was looking at the fixtures left for the main top 4 contenders just the other day and trying to gauge who would take what points from those game. I actually think Chelsea will finish 2nd, Manure 3rd and the race for fourth will be us and the rest. I think we might just scrape it but comes down to how quickly we can get Maddison back. Also Vardy is no longer our focus for goals. He’s still the menace and threat he has always been but his touch and finishing this year has been really poor. But then he is 34 after all.
