Tottenham’s Clint Dempsey: Season in numbers

It’s been a strange season for Clint Dempsey, because he’s managed to put together a very reasonable report card without every really being at his best – or looking particularly comfortable in the Tottenham team.

Here are some of his statistics from 2012/13 so far:

– Has made 18 Premier League starts, in addition to 6 appearances from the bench.

– Has scored 6 Premier League goals, making him SPurs’ third-highest scorer behind Gareth Bale and Jermain Defoe.

– His goals are equally split home and away.

– Has provided 3 assists, as many as Kyle Walker, Mousa Dembele, and Jan Vertonghen.

– Averages 2.3 shots per game, third-most at Spurs.

– Has a pass-accuracy of 81.8% across the season.

– Averages 1.1 key passes per game.

– Is fouled 1.7 times per game, more than any other Tottenham player.

– Is dispossessed 1.7 times per game, second-only to Emmanuel Adebayor.

– Has made 6 starts in the Europa League, and 4 substitute appearances.

– Has scored twice in Europe this season, both goals coming away to Basel

he workss hard and gets inportant goals but he does look lost in games.

i think ade needs to go. i would rather get a proper striker in and keep defoe for the bench and games when we rotate

we do need a decent striker but the problem is going to be wages and also the prospect of missing out on the 4th spot and champions league football . if we get the 4th spot and then we should be able to attract a decent net busting goal machine that the mighty spurs needs . dempsey is not a bad player but i cant see him getting the 20 to 25 goals we need from a forward . you cant question his work rate but mr levy needs to dig deep to get our man .like i said benteke get in quick before anyone else .

we got champions league before and didnt buy a striker.

but at least avb will prob look harder then harry did.
plus im so surprised we not given kane more game time

harry kane maybe worth giving the youngster a run out he has played a few games and scored a few plus he is rated by avb .

we had chances in the uefa cup to play him but didnt.

chelsea rested loads of players and have got this far without really trying.

another thing all this stuff about playing to many games well chelses have played the most again yet they have only had a few players get injurid.
