PPG - 19/20 (Post Lockdown)

[giantwolf]

Hi,

For whatever reason, I cannot post charts in the old PPG thread after the move over to the new site, so hopefully the Mods will allow me to start a new thread for those of you who enjoy a good chart!

@bod101 @Mutchy thanks for your tech support in the background - I thought I'd try this as a last resort - if you want to merge with the old thread feel free, although if I can't still post in it, we might be doing this after every match. I can only assume there is something wrong with that thread.

GW31
3 points - Bournemouth (h) - 2 out of 2 since the restart!
PPG - 1.58 (up 0.05)
Extrapolated points total = 60

Up to 1.58, our highest PPG since Man C at home. Not sure the comparison to previous seasons is relevant at the moment, however based on the past 10 years, this would see us finish 7th on average.



We are still 2 points behind our equivalent points from last season, however we are now 5 points ahead of our total from GW 31 last season. The next 4 equivalent fixtures last season gave us 5pts, so hopefully we'll better that.



As ever, home & away results are pretty close to identical, with away having the slight edge. Our much improved (this season) record against the bottom 6, hopefully stands us in good stead vs Villa, before we enter a little run against teams near us (Arsenal, Sheff Utd & Everton)






For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we are 7pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money



Unbeaten in 7, 1 loss in the last 10



PPG by month - "March" (March and June), is our best period of the season and sets us up nicely for the run in



Again, for what its worth (given the pts per place are lower this season - as illustrated by the chart). We were 16th points BEHIND 6th at this stage last season, now we have a little gap to 7th.




The games are coming thick and fast and I'll do my best to keep on top of it - forum permitting.

Thanks for looking.

Great to have this back Giantwolf - thanks.

I appreciate this is being fussy but is there any chance that the bars in Wolves HvA and v top six, middle, bottom 6 can be same colours ie all games blue and points black in both charts.
Sorry but I am a pedant for consistency.

 

[Dragonwolf]

Thanks GW

GW32
3 points - Villa (a) - 3 out of 3 since the restart!
PPG - 1.63 (up 0.05)
Extrapolated points total = 61

Up to 1.63, our highest this season. Based on previous seasons (past 10 years), this would still see us finish 7th on average.





This week is the first week since the first game of the season that we have more points (collectively) from our equivalent fixtures compared to last season (52 vs 51). We also now have 5points more at this stage than the exact same stage last season





As ever, home & away results are pretty close to identical, although now having played the same number of games home and away, we have 2 additional points on the road than at home.

Our much improved record this season against the bottom 6 was improved further this weekend - over half of our points have now come against teams currently in the bottom 6, hopefully we can improve our "vs other 8" record in our next few games (Arsenal, Sheff Utd & Everton).










For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we remain 7pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money





Unbeaten in 8, 1 loss in the last 11, 3 wins on the trot for the first time this season.





PPG by month - March and June, is our best period of the season and sets us up nicely for the run in





Again, for what its worth (given the pts per place are lower this season - as illustrated by the chart). We were 16 points BEHIND 6th at this stage last season, now we have a little gap to 7th.

I might try and do this for 5th place..........






And finally, an old chart which isn't worth showing every week, but thought worth digging up seeing as all our goals post restart have been in the second half - 73% of our goals have all come in the 2nd half this season (up from 64% last season).





Thanks for looking.

Brilliant info once again,thank you for your time and effort

The improvement against the bottom 6 this season is remarkable, 29 points!

Thank you GW. This is the thread I missed the most during lockdown. So pleased to see it back.

no problem, although its one of those threads that people like to see whilst we're winning, not so enjoyable when we lose (and that goes for me having to produce it too)

GW33
0 points - Arsenal (h) - well, ****-nal pretty much sums it up - back to earth with a bump after those weekend results
PPG - 1.58 (down 0.05)
Extrapolated points total = 60

Down to 1.58, which is where it was before the Villa game and on course for a 7th placed season based on previous years.

We remain 5 points better off than this time last season, however slip below the "equivalent games" points again
​

Starting to slip back on home performance - 2 less points from 1 more game vs away.

Our results vs the "middle order" are our biggest sticking point this season and that was proved again on Saturday. Fingers crossed we can buck the trend vs Sheff U & Everton.





For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we are now 10pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money. We would need to win all our remaining games to finish of the same points as them (for the purposes of this comparison only) - but lets be honest, it was never a target, just a bit of fun comparison.




First defeat in 9 games, so a good little run has come to an end. Of the previous 4 times we've had a "run" come to an end, its 50:50 between whether it carries on with another loss, or we get something from the next game - fingers crossed.

PPG by month - er..... our worst month of the season so far (albeit from only one game) . Looks like Mar/Jun will remain our best "Month" as even if we win all our games, we cannot now beat that in July.

​

Despite the disappointment this week, its important to remember where we were this time last year - 17 points behind 6th and two places worse off.





Thanks for looking, despite the difficult read!

Thanks Giantwolf, as you have said previously it’s never as easy to produce after a defeat, much appreciated.
More opportunities this week.

Thanks @giantwolf

Well worth looking at even after defeat, thanks GW

 

[inaglasshouse]

Cheers GW another great read and analysis.

 

[giantwolf]

Morning, please forgive me missing a week - I was rather busy with work and frankly after such a gut wrenching outcome vs Sheff Utd, the desire to try to squeeze it in wasn't there

GW35
3 points - Everton (h) - what a way to bounce back!
PPG - 1.57 (up 0.04)
Extrapolated points total = 59

Up to 1.57 (compared to Sheff Utd, down 0.01 from the last update). On course for a 7th placed season based on previous years.
​

​

We remain 5 points better off than this time last season, however we have 1 less point than the "equivalent games" from last season.

​

One point more from home than away, albeit from one more game.

​

Our results vs the "middle order" have been a sticking point this season and 3 points from 3 games, pretty much sums it up. Fingers crossed that 3 points puts us in good shape for games vs Burnley & Palace

​

For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we are now 8pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money. Even if we won all our games remaining, we wouldn't be able to catch them up. Lets see what happens at 9:30 with regards the European spots

​

​

3rd time we've lost 2 on the trot - this is the first time we came back and won 3 losses in the last 14 games isn't too bad, its just annoying they came when things were looking particularly rosy.

​

​

1 PPG for July so far - winning all our games will see us finish with 2 PPG for the month

​

1 place better off than this time last season

Thanks for looking​

[giantwolf]

Forgive the light commentary, bit busy at work today......most of the charts are accompanied with a "arggh" or "beep VAR"

​

GW36
1 point - Burnley (a)
PPG - 1.56 (down 0.01)
Extrapolated points total = 59

Down to 1.56 - very much firmly on course for a 7th placed season based on previous years.

We are now just 2 points better off than this time last season, but have exactly the same points from the "equivalent games" from last season.
​

Back to having exactly the same record away from home as at home - 28 points from 18 games

Our continued disappointing record vs "middle order" remains a sticking point this season.
​

For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we are back to 10pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money.

​

​

Our 14th draw of the season, and I feared our failure to take advantage of our pressure would bite us on the bum and it did. If we want to progress, we probably need to convert a fair few of these draws into wins.

​

1 PPG for July so far
​

1 place better off than this time last season
​

Thanks for looking, lets hope Palace are on the beach.

 

[giantwolf]

GW37
3 points - Crystal Palace (h)
PPG - 1.59 (up 0.03)
Extrapolated points total = 60

Up to 1.59 - very much firmly on course for a 7th placed season based on previous years. (So fingers crossed Arsenal don't win the cup). Hopefully Chelsea will spoil the Liverpool celebrations this week and take their foot off the gas a little for us as I can't see Palace beat Spurs.

​

​

3 points better off than the equivalent games last season, 2 points more than we got in the whole of last season - pretty impressive, especially after the slow start and maintaining European football too

Back to having a slightly better home record compared to away. I've been a bit bored of saying the home & away record is exactly the same throughout this season, but I'd be delighted if it ended that way as it would mean we'd have picked up 3pts in London once again.
​

Last nights game helped up improve our record vs the "middle order", lets hope Sunday allows us to improve vs the top 5 also!






For what its worth (I've started so I may as well finish!), we are 7pts behind Man City's equivalent 2nd season of money.

​

3 unbeaten, lets make it 3 wins out of 4 at the weekend



1.4 PPG for July so far - our 5th best month. A win would edge it up to 1.67, so would be on a par with October and Feb

​

1 place better off than this time last season




Thanks for looking, fingers crossed the players still like London, even behind closed doors

 

[North Bank]

Great work as always!

Just looked up Man City's 3rd season of money (2010/11) and they finished 3rd on 71 points, 4 more than 09/10. Wouldn't mind at all being 7 points behind that again. Anything around 65 points and you're in the running for European places, this season you'd possibly be 3rd!

 

[Mrs E]

Good work @giantwolf again.
