Hi there!

I want to address the elephant in the room, because I would like to be open with you. After more than a year of everyday stats posts in this channel, I stopped doing them.

My love for the game and for stats is still there. However, I cannot produce the same quantity of @halftimestat output at this moment in my life for a number of personal reasons. I could continue with occasional low-effort posts, but I’m not ready to settle for mediocrity, and I want this place to grow. So, I need to take a pause.

I will regroup and come back to posting regularly as soon as I can. I put a piece of myself into this project. And I truly believe, there is a bright future for it ahead.

What should you do? I won’t blame you, if you unsubscribe. However, I have a metaphor for you. Treat this pause like a piece of cash you forgot in your winter jacket, when you put it in the closet at the end of winter. And when it’s time to take out that jacket for a new season, that piece of cash will be a pleasant surprise you forgot about. So I’d like you to keep this channel somewhere in the long list of your subscriptions, and when it returns with even better posts, that will be your pleasant surprise.

Until then. Take care!

Most left-footed Premeir League goals

Last season Mohamed Salah broke the record for the most Premier League goals scored with a left foot. So I got curious to see, who else is in the top of the list

I was surprised to find no right-footed players in the TOP-10. I would've imagined, that a player like Alan Shearer (260 PL goals) or Harry Kane (213 PL goals) would've been in the top merely through the sheer amount of goals they scored. However, none there

Also interesting to see a midfielder in David Silva right besides a striker in Olivier Giroud. This happens, obviously, because Giroud's 90 Premier League goals get spread across headers, right- and left-footed goals, while Silva — scoring from midfield — mostly did it with his left foot: 49 out of total 60 PL goals
