It's interesting to know that out of the 101 goals he scored 4 United, Only 23 of them were scored when he came as a sub.
 
Good heavens. :)

Not a lot of people know that. Still.
 
Any stattos out there like to let us know the goals per minutes on the pitch?
 
Livvie, I knew that u r going to post here :) , it's strange that n both times he came on as a sub this season against wba & n the cl, he scored, while when he started the othe games he didn't score,,,,,,

Well there's your answer then.

He deserves at least 100 lashes for not scoring against Chelsea as sub. Or Boro.

I think before the season he was on average one goal for every other game or summit like that..

Er, I must have seen a different game from you then. At least for the 1st half. ;)

Ever United player was annonymous in the 2nd half!

The tug-back by the Leeds defender in the box wud have resulted in a penalty if it weren't the Liverpool supporter Winters refereeing! ( Ruud was awarded a penalty for a similiar offence committed last week! )

And he was playing more like an advanced midfielder, with beautiful touches & knock-ons & if Ruud had converted just a couple of chances his way, United wud not have lost!

PS - Can Ruud kick further than 6 yards?

OGS was our best player in attack last Sat.
his first touch was great, and his link up play with Ruud also good. I'm actually seeing some improvement from the Bolton game. We lost, but we created more chances than them, and their second best chance comes from a misplace pass by Rio.
Now next time I hope Fergie bring Stewart for the next few games, so if Butt got injured again, we atleast have a real CM, not a defender and RM forced to played in CM.
 
Sorry to disappoint you Livvie, but I've only got last season's stats & not Ole's whole career with regards minutes played.

Anyway here goes :

OLE/RUUD/THE REST STATS FOR EPL SEASON 2001-2002

OPTA STATS TAKEN FROM UNITED - OFFICIAL MAN UTD MAGAZINE :


OLE RUUD BECKS GIGGS

MINS PLAYED 2062 2555 2127 1679

goals 17 23 11 7

Shots on target 30 45 32 9

shots off target 23 42 38 20

goals to shots % 32 26

shooting accuracy 57 52

passing 894 645 1552 673

pass completion % 78 76 76 71

GOAL ASSISTS 9 4 12 8

As can be seen, altho' Ole's ratio for goals to minutes was 121 mnutes as opposed to Ruud's 111 minutes ( Ruud took penalties ), Ole led the way in terms of goals to shots ratio, shooting accuracy - Ole had more shots on target than misses, pass completion & more importantly, he was 2nd in terms of goal assists - for the 5th-6th consecutive season in the top 3!!!

"Only", thats almost 1 in 4 which is a lot.
Im an Ole fan but i feel the team would benefit if Forlan was to start the next few.
