So does this support the claim that penalties don't get awarded against the big teams or does it mean that they have the better defenders?

Maybe the "Big Teams" are not put under so much pressure in the penalty area than the 'lesser' teams.Maybe it's down to defensive organisation, types of defenders etc etc.Makes for an interesting debate I suppose.

I don't think there's enough data there to prove very much. It only talks about penalties, but there are many other kinds of decision that affect matches. I still haven't worked out quite what Rojo has to do to actually get sent off, for example; considerably more than Mings, at any rate. Edited by chateauferret (06 Mar 2017 7.48pm)
