Don’t really get why people like this kind of stat. Suppose I was a top striker and the main goal threat in a team, but could never be arsed as soon as we started losing and just moped around. We’d win loads of games in which I’d scored, and lose lots where I hadn’t.

Don’t mean to sound negative towards the OP sorry (not meaning to have a pop!) but stats like these say very little for me. I’d be far more interested in how many points Sharp’s goals had got us - that’ll be a hell of a lot I’d say.

I think this stat just says he’s the spearhead of a very good team and we already knew that.
 
It's actually won 23, drawn 6, lost 0.

The only player this season who has scored in a match we've lost is Lundstram.

Hey up mate no probs some valid points, plus in an interview just very recently Billy has acknowledge exactly what you have pointed out, this team is creating chances galore for him, Leon and others to put away, plus they can do it on their own as well....
Ala bouncing day hog roast...
:D:rolleyes:
 
Last season the only players who scored in matches we lost were Scougall (Millwall) and O'Connell (Walsall).

This is obviously because when we lose we often don't score.

But we haven't lost many where he has not scored, either.

I've thought similar. You could have this stat and have lost a hundred and fifty games or more in that time. It's also not that surprising that you win more and lose fewer of the games that your main striker scored in.

And it seems weird to come up with such a contrived stat when you consider the following: in the 103 appearances since returning to the Blades, Billy has scored 59 goals. 21 in the 2015-16 season, 30 in the 2016-17 season, and 8 in the first 14 games so far of 2017-18.

Oddly, it’s the 30 that seems the least remarkable. As big an achievement as that is, scoring 8 at a higher level and 21 in a year when we were shite probably outranks it!
 
I'm not sure if anyone's picked up on this but I make it that Billy's scored 199 league goals. I know he passed the 200 mark a while ago in all competitions but he could pass another landmark tonight. Am I right about this because if so then we'd better be ready!

His record under Adkins shows more character than any other stat of his. Most of his teammates had just given up.

Yes, next League goal is his 200th.
