The thread about winning goals, made me hark back to the "phoenix score". I did a blog about this a few years back.... essentially looking at points won from losing positions...

This was in the time of MickMc, and we picked up about 30% of available points from losing positions...
I just ran the same check on League one...

That ability of Plymouth to pick up points from losing positions is a standout... but does that tell us that they are mentally strong..... or performing above their quality, and are likely to drop off.... time will tell, I suppose. |  |

As I posted earlier today, Plymouth losing Whittaker is a big deal and will affect them. I've no doubt they'll have a blip in the near future.
We just need to up our game again to be ready to take advantage of that. |  |

They have conceded more than us despite having probably the best keeper in the division this season. Most of the defensive stats such as shots faced, xGA, etc put them in the bottom half.
I'm sure it will be something that Schumacher is conscious of and will be working on but if they lose one or two of the players who have rescued them they could find life more dificult | |
