Which football league had the fewest teams finishing with a positive GD? | The Knowledge

I MEAN, CAN YOU BELIEVE HOW BAD THE GOAL DIFFERENCE IS LOOKING IN THE BUNDESLIGA RIGHT NOW?! 66.6% OF TEAMS ARE STRUGGLING TO GET ANY POSITIVE GOALS IN!!! IT'S LIKE THEY'RE ALL JUST DEFENDING AND HOPING FOR A MIRACLE 🀯😱

AND IT'S NOT JUST THE BUNDESLIGA, EITHER - THE ENGLISH LEAGUE SYSTEM HAS SEEN SOME WILD GOAL DIFFERENCE RATES TOO! I MEAN, 70% OF TEAMS IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE HAD NEGATIVE GOALS LAST SEASON... THAT'S CRAZY! 🀯

BUT YOU KNOW WHOSE TEAM WAS DOING REALLY WELL BACK IN '91? BENFICA AND PORTO - THOSE GUYS WERE ON FIRE WITH THEIR POSITIVE GOAL DIFFERENCE!!! IT WAS LIKE THEY JUST COULDN'T MISS πŸ”₯πŸ‘

AND HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED HOW OFTEN PORTUGUESE CLUBS ARE DOING SO BADLY IN THE GOAL DIFFERENCE STAKE?! πŸ€” IT'S LIKE THEY'RE ALL JUST TRYING TO MAKE IT TO THE NEXT ROUND WITHOUT GETTING TOO HAMSTRUNG πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

ANYWAY, I GUESS THAT'S JUST THE WAY THE GAME IS SUPPOSED TO BE - FULL OF SURPRISES AND UPSETS! BUT MAN, IT'S EXCITING TO SEE THOSE UNDERDOG TEAMS STRUGGLE TO GET ANY POINTS πŸ€”πŸ˜…
 
I remember when soccer was just about the beautiful game πŸ†πŸ˜Š. Nowadays it's all about stats and goal differences πŸ“ŠπŸ‘€. I mean, what happened to good old fashioned football where guys like David Beckham and Ryan Giggs were heroes not just for their skills but for their style πŸ‘¦? And don't even get me started on the Premier League's emphasis on attacking soccer πŸ˜‚... it's like they're trying to make the game into a highlight reel πŸ“Ί. I'm all for some flair, but what about defense and strategy? It seems like teams are just throwing players at the opponent until one of them scores πŸ’₯... and then everyone's a genius 😎.
 
πŸ€” The way teams are performing in the Bundesliga right now is crazy 😲. Like, 66.6% of teams have a negative goal difference after only 18 games? That's a lot of struggles πŸ€•. I'm not surprised though, football can be so unpredictable πŸ’₯.

I love that example of Nigel Clough and Darren Ferguson playing for different teams at the same time πŸ‘Š. It's like, family dynamics on the pitch πŸ˜‚. And can we talk about Benfica's goal difference in 1990-91? 🀯 +71?! That's insane πŸ”₯.

The thing that's really interesting to me is how Portuguese clubs tend to struggle with negative goal differences πŸ“Š. Maybe it's something to do with the team dynamics or strategy, but I'd love to see some analysis on that πŸ’‘.

And haha, Southampton getting destroyed 9-0 not once, but twice πŸ˜‚. You've got to feel for them πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Overall, just another season of ups and downs in football ⚽️.
 
man this german bundesliga is like a sinking ship right now πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜¬. 66.6% of teams having a negative goal difference is crazy, i mean what's going on? are they not scoring enough goals or conceding too many? and you know what's even crazier? this record was actually beaten by the english league system in the tier two division way back in 2005-06 πŸ“†. maybe germany needs to take a page out of england's book and figure out their team management strategies πŸ’‘.

and can we talk about portuguese clubs for a sec? vasco wackrill said that they often have a high number of negative goal differences, like only 4 teams had a positive goal difference in the 2022-23 season 🀯. what's going on with portugal's football scene? is it just a coincidence or is there something deeper going on?

anyway, i'm loving this nostalgic vibe you got going on with the old premier league and german bundesliga records πŸ“š. and oh man that dads and sons playing on the same team story in 1992 was so cool πŸ‘Š.
 
I'm telling ya, back in my day... we didn't have all these stats and whatnot, but I remember watching these teams struggle to score goals! πŸ˜‚ It's crazy how much it's changed now. In those old days, a 8-0 win was like, the ultimate result! πŸ† Now, with all the fancy analytics and whatnot, it seems like teams are just having more trouble scoring than ever. I mean, 66.6% of teams in the Bundesliga already have negative goal differences after 18 games? That's wild! πŸ’₯ And those Porto and Benfica teams back in '91, man... they were on fire! πŸš€ But hey, I guess that's just how the game goes sometimes. Teams rise and fall, and you've gotta keep adapting to stay on top. πŸ‘
 
omg can u believe how bad most teams r doing in the bundesliga right now 😳 66.6% of teams have a negative goal diff after 18 games that's just crazy! and it's not like they're even close to each other either 🀯
