Week 5 (Sortable Tables)



All tables set to Close Game State.

TSR

Fulham are just weird, or really bad. It just doesn't look good.

City are driving ahead of the rest of the league in Close TSR, though this number is likely to come down when City visit Chelsea in what will be the game of the season so far. If one of Chelsea or City don't win the win the league I'll eat my hat!

SoTR

Look at the bottom three teams in this table, anyone think the relegation places will appear different at the seasons end?

Again, City are killing it, Everton look mighty good. Newcastle are top 8 or 9.

Fenwick/USR

Remove blocked shots from the equation and we end up with a table like the one featured below. It's a table where City and Tottenham are a little ahead of the pack and where Newcastle are a top 6 side .

PDO

Last week, Cardiff's PDO was 123, Liverpool's was 113. Slowly, we are seeing the outliers sucked back towards the mean. Hell, even Southampton's save% is cooling off.

Man United remain a sub-par PDO team, which is just wild and new. A word here for Sunderland: the bad news just piles up doesn't it; Sunderland have terrible SoT numbers, terrible Fenwick numbers and if we add them to the lowest PDO score I think I have ever seen then it really doesn't look good for Sunderland.

Some of Sunderland's numbers will positively regress, but my Lord, that PDO number will sink the sturdiest of shots ships, which, it must be said, Sunderland are not.
