I wonder how many of Walcott's goals are the 3rd in a 3-0 or in injury time at the end of the game. Goals you could say weren't crucial to the outcome of the game. Not sure where to find this, aside from looking at every game he scored in (don't do that), but if there is a high proportion of these goals and very few winning goals you could conclude that while those stats are true, they are also skewed.Walcott - 108 goals/assists in 270 league games isn't terrible - 0.4 per game
Lennon 80 in 342 - 0.23
Sissoko - 32 in 165 - 0.19
Defoe - 193 in 483 - 0.39 per game
He's meh, but I've paid to watch much worse.
There were a couple of seasons when Bojan scored 10-12 for Barca and people said he was showing promise but often they were at the end of games when the result was settled, and funnily enough he has never scored that many in a season again.
