Sunderland's end of season form is shocking. 2 defeats in their first 40 games, 3 defeats in their last 6 games!
Sunderland messed up for me because they couldnt replace Josh Maja... He's still their top scorer three ahead of McGeady yet its a long distance back to third top scorer for them
Thankfully for us; Roland wasnt able to completely screw us over (with the sale of Grant) because Taylor has been on fire of late and we've had an Igor of old to rely on... Else I reckon our form would have gone in a similar direction

While the sale of Grant was clearly a blow, in retrospect bringing in Purrington was a massive plus for the team. Since he arrived we've only lost 1 match (Fleetwood) when he played. It's akin to 98 when bringing in Mills, Youds and Ilic gave us the run of clean sheets that took us to Wembley.
We lost 8 games up to the end of December, and only 2 since then.
Some of these stats are fascinating and really indicate what a great team we have right now. I mean, for any player to get 16 league assists is phenomenal, but for that same player to also get 21 league goals as well. I mean, come on, that is unbelievable.
17 clean sheets is very impressive too. 2019 has been very good to us so far with results and goals and clean sheets. Long may it continue.
Also, when was the last time we got into double figures for penalties in a season, let alone 15 and scoring 12 of them.
Shows we get the ball forward far more than we used to and far more dangerous when we do. We hurt teams and are a lot to handle.
Amazing number of penalties, never remember us getting so many
I think one year in the premiership didn't we go a whole season without getting one? or only one in comparison. Obviously we play more on the front foot now but also could be down to the big team factor, perhaps we are the big team this year?

Yeah, Purrington 12-5-1. Parker, um... 2-3-2. Charton without Parker in starting lineup: 11-3-0 in 2019.

Interesting that Morgan has 3 assists whereas Williams has only 1. 9 assists for Cullen is a very impressive number too

Igor seems to have some serious discipline problems as he is in the list twice !
