What This Is
A project to build a fun possible football stats site — stats the way fans want them: interactive, packed with visuals, and filled with context so that the numbers make sense.
It has a dashboard for every club in the Premier League: points pace against the club's own recent seasons, goals for and against, shots and corners where the data exists, home and away splits, the match log — and the league's goals-per-match trend since 1888-89. Every player with a minute on the pitch is here too, sortable by who is trending up and who is trending down against last season. And a compare page that puts two Premier League careers on one chart, legends included, raw or era-adjusted. Who is rising this year? Who is dropping? Is the league scoring more than it did a decade ago? Find the answers here.
It's built and maintained by Alex Panetta, a 28-year journalist earning a master's in AI Management during a career sabbatical and building apps as a hobby and for school projects — the Trend Line for hockey, this site's older sibling; Wandering Well, a hidden-gems travel site and app; and the Daily AI Digest, a daily briefing on AI for non-technical professionals.

An independent project — not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the Premier League or any club. All stats are drawn from public football datasets, credited on the methodology page.
The Numbers
Everything is fetched from public datasets by an automated pipeline — no estimates, no hand-entered stats. Where a source lacks a field, the page says so instead of filling it in. The state-of-the-club paragraphs are generated from fixed rules applied to the data, so the words can never outrun the numbers. Methodology →
