We are currently top dogs in London.

Remaining fixtures:

Fulham - Chelsea
Chelsea - West Ham
Tottenham - Fulham
Fulham - QPR
Chelsea - Tottenham
Fulham - Arsenal
QPR - Arsenal
 
I was looking at the cumulative table over the last three seasons (or 2 and 2/3rds). We have the same number of points as Arsenal and only two less than Chelsea.
 
can someone of you statslovers look at the rest of the games for, Tottenham, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool
and see on the last 5 years results... and make a professial guess on the standing in may.

Off topic (a bit). The media bangs on ad nausem about how it's because they have such a young inexperienced squad that Villa are doing so badly. If only that rule applied to Arse and 'pool.

Surely that's not right for Liverpool... Reina (30)? Skrtel (28)? Agger (28)? Johnson (28)? Jose Enrique (27)? Gerrard (32)? Downing (28)? Suarez (26)? All of these have played significant games for them, and surely outweigh Sterling and co?!

Noticed this tweet Twitter / SpursStatMan: Spurs have averaged 434 passes per game in the Premier League this season, compared to 514 per game last season.

Which ties in with some stats I posted in the Dembele thread showing how much we've missed Modric and VdV' creativity this season:

Average passes per game:

2011/12: Modric - 70; Assou-Ekotto - 59; Parker - 59; van der Vaart - 49; Walker 48
2012/13: Dembele - 54; Naughton - 49; Vertonghen - 48; Parker - 45; Walker - 44

Key Passes per game:

2011/12: Modric - 2.7; Bale - 2.3; van der Vaart - 2.3; Adebayor - 1.8; Lennon - 1.7
2012/13: Bale - 2.4; Lennon - 2.0; Dembele - 1.9; Walker - 1.7; Adebayor - 1.1

Accurate crosses per game:

2011/12: Bale - 1.3; Modric - 1.3; van der Vaart - 1.2; Assou-Ekotto - 0.7; Lennon - 0.6
2012/13: Bale - 2.0; Assou-Ekotto - 1.1; Walker - 0.9; Huddlestone - 0.5; Sigurdsson 0.5

Accurate through balls per game:

2011/12: Modric - 0.5; van der Vaart - 0.4; Bale - 0.3; Parker 0.3; Adebayor - 0.2
2012/13: Parker - 0.3; Lennon - 0.2; Defoe - 0.2; Dempsey - 0.2; Naughton - 0.2

And arguably has some correlation to our strikers poor form in the league this season so far, what with us attempting the highest proportion of shots from outside the 18 yard box in the league at home at 60% (compared to 32% for ManC, 34% for ManU, 38% for ARSEnal, 46% Chavski) which is certainly not one of Ade' strengths.

Bale' had a shot every 18 minutes with a conversion rate of 13.8% (17 goals from 132 shots over 2381mins)
Defoe' had a shot every 21 minutes with a conversion rate of 10.4% (10 goals from 104 shots over 2176mins)
Dempsey' had a shot every 31 minutes with a conversion rate of 9.6% (5 goals from 48 shots over 1477mins)
Adebayor' had a shot every 41 minutes with a conversion rate of 7.1% (2 goals from 28 shots over 1135mins)

Compared to our strikers in the league last season:

Adebayor had a shot every 28 minutes with a conversion rate of 17.0% (17 goals from 100 shots over 2827mins)
Defoe had a shot every 33 minutes with a conversion rate of 16.7% (14 goals from 66 shots over from 1301mins)
van der Vaart had a shot every 20 minutes with a conversion rate of 11.5% (11 goals from 102 shots over 2314mins)
Bale had a shot every 24 minutes with a conversion rate of 6.6% (9 goals from 136 shots over 3216mins)

It from an american blog Epl Talk. Its absolutely flimflam.

If you average the ages of all the players who have appeared for Liverpool this season available here - http://www.whoscored.com/Teams/26 you'd get 25.11

But even that would be a lazy way to do it.

A statistically accurate way of doing it would be to multiply each players age by the amount of appearances they're made, add those weighted values up and divide the total by the total number of appearances. This way Gerrard's 33 appearances at age 32 have more value than Martin Kelly's 4 appearances at age 22.

I hate flimflam football stats done by people who have no background in statistics. I suspect the person who did the table just added the ages from a squad list in wikipedia or something similar.
 
Tottenham Hotspur have scored 192 hat-tricks in competitive matches from 1896 (Bob 'Topsy' Clements in an FA Cup 3rd Qualification tie against Old St. Stephen's) to Gareth Bale's Premier League hat-trick against Aston Villa on Boxing Day 2012.

Jimmy Greaves has scored the most hat-tricks for Spurs (15), the highest number came in the old First Division (91) and we've scored more hat-tricks against Southampton (9) than any of the 71 opponents we've scored hat-tricks against.

Tottenham Hotspur Hat-Tricks Scored from 1896 to 2013
