11 goals the league which works out to 0.5 per90 which ranks 20th in the league for players with more than 900 minutes. If you wants non-penalty goals then it's 15th.
Also the goal per 90 thing has been demystified in this thread already: 0.5 goal per 90 doesn't equal 18 goals a season.
You can't 'demystify' per 90 .. its how player performance is measured by anyone who even vaguely knows what they're talking about
If you don't accept that as stats 101 then please never post a number on here again and make your comments about football not numbers
As for his output - first of all we're dealing only with the league as people in insist on doing (wonder why) .. but fine.
0.5 npg per 90 is really good - again anyone vaguely into numbers would accept that as objectively true. (in old money it's 1 in 2 from open play that will never not be a good benchmark)
(No idea why you've used 900 minutes as a sample when he's got 2000 minutes?.. I mean I do know why you've done this but its pretty transparent)
And of course we're talking about goals scored .. which is fine because his production is good.. but a serious stats man like yourself would obviously be more interested in underlying performance and we all know the story there.
This is never ending but it all boils down to the same things:
1) He's a high producing forward in terms of goals, assists and shots and has been for several seasons no matter what side plays in - it doesn't matter how you cut up the numbers he always comes out as either very good or elite
2) He's had a very bad finishing season and should've scored more - this has been especially true in the league where he's been unsustainably unlucky in front of goal - even if he is a bad finisher
3) Despite point 2 he's still put up a vey good goal/assist return
4) The reason underlying numbers exist is to show performance more accurately absent variance in outcome.
People that don't accept the validity of this idea will view him as a far worse player than those that do. The people that run our football operations make decisions based on underlying numbers
