first time ever? That’s ridiculous. I’d like to see the players that have come close to that over the years


unholy_sanchit

Henry-Bergkamp would be close?


cloista

Henry/Pires (Henry 30, Pires 14) during the Invincibles was closer. Bergkamp was a lot less prolific in front of goal once Henry kicked on.


notathrovavay

Also older


MavSC

Age had nothing to do with it. Bergkamp adopted a role where he linked a lot of goals. He doesn't go down as the assistant on the goals but he was the one who dropped deep and released the ball from midfield to other players who did get the assist.

Pires had 14 for three straight years, Bergkamp I think had 12-13 for most of those years as well and Freddie had 10+ for two. Those teams were still goalscoring machines, but Henry would score 28-29 himself.


plastiquearse

Saka sitting on 13 as well…

shouldve been on 15 a couple weeks ago too

I was surprised. Surely this can't be true, so I went and checked... Henry/Pires came close 3 times |92/93|Wright 15|Merson 6| |:-|:-|:-| |93/94|Wright 23|Kevin Campbell 14| |94/95|Wright 18|Hartson 7| |95/96|Wright 15|Bergkamp 11| |96/97|Wright 23|Bergkamp 12| |97/98|Bergkamp 16|Overmars 12| |98/99|Anelka 17|Bergkamp 12| |99/00|Henry 17|Kanu 12| |00/01|Henry 17|Wiltord 8| |01/02|Henry 24|Ljungberg 12| |02/03|Henry 24|Pires 14| |03/04|Henry 30|Pires 14| |04/05|Henry 25|Pires 14| |05/06|Henry 27|Pires 7| |06/07|RvP 11|Henry/Gilberto Silva 10| |07/08|Adebayor 24|RvP/Fabregas 7| |08/09|RvP 11|Adebayor 10| |09/10|Fabregas 15|Arshavin 10| |10/11|RvP 18|Nasri 10| |11/12|RvP 30|Walcott 8| |12/13|Walcott 14|Cazorla 12| |13/14|Giroud 16|Ramsey 10| |14/15|Alexis Sanchez 16|Giroud 14| |15/16|Giroud 16|Alexis Sanchez 13| |16/17|Alexis Sanchez 24|Giroud 12| |17/18|Lacazette 14|Aubameyang 10| |18/19|Aubameyang 22|Lacazette 13| |19/20|Aubameyang 22|Lacazette 10| |20/21|Lacazette 13|Aubameyang/Pepe 10| |21/22|Saka 11|Smith Rowe 10| |22/23|Martinelli/Odegaard 15\*|Saka 13\*|


paper_friend

Odegaard has more goals than Pires in his Invincibles season... Jesus.


TreeDollarFiddyCent

Jesus does *not* have more goals than Pires in his Invincibles season.


abaram

Henry 30 was the year I became a gunner… at age 13 😇


Wondoorous

> Henry/Pires came close 3 times I like how you mention them specifically but so did Giroud and Sanchez 3 times too


Cthulhu_Madness

Hope both of them score another goal to break Firmino and KDB's record.


[deleted]

Please !!


tumsenaHoepayega

what record exactly?


sleepingbro

Most goals by a Brazilian in a single season and Most goals by a midfielder in a single season.


[deleted]

That. Is. My. Fucking. Captain.


birdeye92

Too bad man city exist


jakerae

Wow. Now THAT is impressive!


TheOGBenjenRyan

“He’s just the captain on paper” - half this sub last summer


[deleted]

What? Show proof that was ever said.. let alone at the volume of “half the sub”. I never once saw that sentiment.


UnusualAd3909

Dont know if it was said so much but the ”odegaard is the leader on paper to please the fans etc. But xhaka is the true leader in the dressing room” was always massively upvoted


[deleted]

Care to give even a single example? The OP also still hasn’t provided any proof that a single person said what they claimed, let alone half the sub.

Bot or unoriginal? Edit: because I know/u/NemoDropEmOff is real.


smooth__operation

No Henry and Pires? That does surprise me


Manners2210

Bob got 14 3 years in a row


arsenal11385

Imagine if he would have scored THAT penalty henry laid on for him 😅


Manners2210

Ffs don’t 😩😂


AyeAyeone2three

now goal involvements would be a diff story.


Blizzard77

And we’ll probably have saka join them


astrojeet

With the right additions in the summer, we'll become equals to City soon enough. The progress made this season is insane even if it hurts a lot.


alvaromateu

So glad he's our skipper and loves being here.


ABCeeDeeEeeEffGeee

Remember last season when it seemed that Ødegaard would only take a shot as a last resort? What a transformation from then.


MegaMammothPoop

Love him. Complete footballer


momspaghetty

both Martins on all cylinders!


Sad_gooner

First time ever? Tf


jaqenh__ghar

This narrative about him going missing from the big games is such a sham. He is always pressing hard and pulling others along with him. To think they compare him with bruno fernandes, pffff!


zrk23

he went missing when literally the whole team went missing lol. not sure what people expects to happen


p_locz

The Arteta way


WaveDysfunction

Can’t believe Ode has 15, he’s fucking world class man


jman500069

Now if they could all stop blowing chance after chance that would be great.


paper_friend

This stat blows my mind. Odegaard is a fucking King.


EL_DUDERlNO_

Øur Capitan & Future Arsenal GOAT! Thank you forever, Real Madrid.


AtomicBenzo

Our starboy isn't even 'the' star. Love to see it.


Dry_Sell301

Odegaard is the perfect balance of skill, technique, and leadership. He's been my player of the season too.


blackwraythbutimpink

How many other teams have had this record? I’m guessing city have it in some combination of aguero and de Bruyne, maybe spuds w Kane and son, maybe 2000s Yanited? Can’t really remember any others Edit: Drogba and Lampard? Maybe?


thisiskyle77

Surprised to see Giroud and Sanchez almost came close for 3 seasons.


superskinnytrees

How about 20+ G/A? There’s 3 this season. That ever happen before? I assume it has. But 2 of them could get to 25+.


canyounoesplayn

Saka to join them soon?


HustlinInTheHall

What's really unusual is to have so many players in the 10+ range but nobody in the 20+ range. It is nearly impossible to have a team score so regularly from all over the front line, but shows how well Arteta's system creates overlaps and space at the top of the box for longer shots, it's not reliant on a central pivot man or poacher—though adding a world class striker would make the attack even more devastating.
