What is our most successful team?

It's not a case of what YOUR strongest team is. Frankly you and me are irrelevant.

 

Factually what is out best team?

 

Well that's clearly flawed thinking isn't it?

 

You asked for the most successful team at first, but that doesn't mean much, as being part of the team that beat Hartlepool doesn't make you worse than being in the team that lost to Leeds.

 

Now you are asking for our best team. Well the most effective way to get that is for people who have seen matches to pluck out the best players they have seen, which they are doing.

Nah, winning is winning. Who has been on the winning side most would be my view.

This season, what eleven has most wins under its belt?

 

And how should we do this?

 

The same eleven that has won most games or the players in the eleven who have won most games?

 

But we need to do this so that we know our best eleven.

 

The best logical way is how NHL ice hockey statisticians do it - Goals For/Against and Won/Lost record whilst on the pitch in the form of +/- stats.

 

Good luck working out that one... in my experience only *I* am sad enough to work that out, and I can't be arsed.

 

FWIW I'd suggest that as Lambert signed quite early and had to play with the rejects for a month or so there will be a skew against his stats even based on this.

Whilst it may be interesting to work out who have been the players in our most successful team, it is based on history and would therefore not include any of our 5 recent signings. Yet presumably AP would consider he brought in these players to improve the team. So it is not a very useful guide to what will be our best team. Not suggesting all five will be our best players but Fonte for instance would be without a doubt.
