I wanna know who's at the bottom, plateauing until around game 30 where they just go insane.

That was Mark Viduka's 2002/03 season, he scored 7 goals over 4 games, including a hat-trick against Charlton Athletic.

Are you sure that’s Gameweek on the X axis, and not game played in? I’m just wondering why some lines stop before the end

Yeah the way I created the data I didn't extend every value to the end of the season, so basically there are no horizontal lines, if they don't score another goal the line just stops.

Why aren't there straight horizontal lines? It looks like every player scored in every game.

The way I structured the data meant there were only values for goals, so it basically interpolates between two games where goals were scored.

Why does it go to 40 instead of 38?

I'd have to check specifically but I scraped from the very beginning of the Premier League data on their website, I think that in the 90s there were 22 teams not 20 so that's probably the reason.

Yeah i thought that could be the answer. I suppose it would only have to take 1 season of that rule for it to change the graph. Very interesting table anyway.

This is OC, though before I posted I searched the sub so thought I'd mention u/BoMcCready who seemed to have done a similar visualisation before me!
