Of course, if you did pick a team on the basis of X player being there (whether on account of their nationality or whatever)...you can guarantee that they'll leave the club within 12 months. Then what would you be left with? Burnley.

I'm gonna support Burnley now. Sorry, @9 to 5

Plz no ban RW.

Burnley makes the most sense though since they have the only Canadian player in the league as far as I am aware.

They also still run out to Arcade Fire don't they? Double Canuck points.

Salah has scored 19 goals with his left foot in the league...One less than Swansea have total goals this season.

I can't help but feel that would be a more impressive stat if he wasn't left footed

Well considering only 6 players in the history of the Prem have only scored 15 goals or more with their left foot, and generally looking back a lot of left footed players have always still scored via their head or right foot it  is kind of impressive in terms of just how he is scoring in just one way.

To just go "He's left footed though..." when looking at past predominately left footed players and then comparing them it's interesting. 

86.4% of his goals have been via his left foot. The only two that come close to that is Bale in 12/13 and then Fowler in 94/95 with 76.2% and 76%

You have a voicemail.

That figure of big chances missed by Morata seems low.

Do I strike you as the sort of reprobate that uses Bluetooth?

[Adam]

I'm always wary of stats like that. What defines a chance as a 'big' one compared to one that is not so big, and therefore not counted on that list. Stats with subjectivity in them like that don't have credence for me.

[Hobo]

The chances were big, I tell you.

The biggest of chances.

[Liam]

Daniel Sturridge already gone off injured in tonight's game.

[stokeriño]

A grand total of three minutes on the pitch for Sturridge tonight.

I feel sorry for him. Such a talent but a complete chandelier.

[DavidMarrio]

He's one of the best natural finishers I've seen play for us but injuries have just completely ruined him. Feel sorry for the guy.

Did anyone else see that naughty tackle on Zapacosta earlier?
