There's a lot of goals to be had, ghosting in at the back post.

Trez coulda told you that when he was here.

His goal away at Norwich was a thing of beauty.

Norwich?! I tell you what, Ashley Young at Everton in the last minute was a beauty.

He's right and he's talking about JJ, it's not a random observation.

His timing of runs is superb. He’s got so much potential for growth as well. I’ve said it before I was wrong on him when he first came into the side, I thought he was tidy in possession but didn’t have obvious X factor. But the more he plays he shows he’s got great dynamism and an eye for goal.

Loved that set piece we did where Ramsey suddenly comes into view, at full speed, and suddenly he's in on goal.

Ramsey will get into double figures for us in the next season or 2

I think this is the target Unai will be setting for him next season.

Against a lesser keeper and it’s a goal. It was a very strong/arm or hand that prevented it going in.

He's a brilliant keeper to be fair, nearly as good as Emi

I think this is the target Unai will be setting for him next season.

Typically you want 20 goals from your strikers, 10 apiece from  the midfield and 4-5 from each of the back 4.

Fully expect Unai to be asking for all of the team to up their efforts - and that goes for clean sheets too.

I loved his goal celebration yesterday. Pity the cameras didn't show the angry scousers flicking him the Vs

Typically? That's 100 goals a season!

In the tight four across midfield formation we play then I think it's imperative that McGinn and Ramsey are regular scorers.

Who is in defence? Franz Beckenbauer? In all 4 positions?

I'm with SaddVillan here (with caveats).

- Man City have scored 93 goals so far this season.
- Last season they scored 99
- The season before, 83
- The season before that, 102 (finished 2nd - winners Liverpool scored 85)
- The season before that, 95

Basically, if you want to win the league - you've got to be getting bloody close to 100 goals.  If you've aspirations of finishing around there, you've got to be setting the sort of targets that'd see you getting 90+ goals

Manchester United will be playing champions league football next season, and they've scored 52 goals.

It can't be 'typical' to score that many goals across all positions in the team. Of course it depends on what formation you play too....

4-3-3 110 Goals (or 90 if you say the wide players are midfielders)
4-4-2 100 Goals
4-5-1 90 Goals
3-5-2 105 Goals

Goals for this season, for the Top 4.
93,83, 67, 52
Last
99, 94, 76, 69
then
83, 73, 68, 58
85, 102, 66, 69
95, 89, 63, 67
106, 68, 74, 84
85, 86, 80, 78

So it doesn't take that many goals to win the league. There are occasional stand-out seasons where a team scores a lot but even then, it probably didn't need that many to win it. I could produce the Goal Difference or Goals Against stats too, which of course will contextualise things. If you've a solid defence you don't need a load of goals.
