Are there any stats who is scoring most headers among our players (including newcomers)?
From action and from set pieces.

The stats are not totally complete (this doesn't always get well-reported on, esp. for younger players and/or players in lower or less-known leagues) but here is what I found. Career numbers for headers, per transfermarkt. And just for fun what percent of games they have scored a header in.

Lewandowski - 52 in ~547 games = ~9.5%
Muller - 24 in ~577 games = ~4.2%
Javi - 22 in ~465 games = ~4.7%
Perisic - 19 in ~425 games = ~4.5%
Tolisso - 12 in ~208 games = ~5.8%
Goretzka - 9 in ~273 games = ~3.3%
Thiago - 9 in ~309 games = ~3.0%
Kimmich - 7 in ~289 games = ~2.4%
Sule - 5 in ~255 games = ~2.0%
Boateng - 4 in ~477 games = ~0.8%
Gnabry - 4 in ~176 games = ~2.3%
Coman - 3 in ~159 games = ~1.9%
Coutinho - 2 in ~360 games = ~0.6%
Mai - 2 in ~127 games = ~1.6%
Pavard - 2 in ~117 games = ~1.7%
Cuisance - 1 in ~41 games = ~2.4%

Zero recorded: Arp, Davies, Alaba, Hernandez, and of course the goalkeepers, lol

Niko Kovač on Joshua Kimmich: "If you remove Josh from the right-back position, you lose the best goal provider. He'll certainly not leave the position permanently. He's just too good for that" [Kicker]

Good news. At least Kovac can see the basics.

I think he meant "permanently"

[ramsej84]

It is good that we are flexible....
that is why sometimes to have too many players is not very healthy...

Alaba LB and CM and LW
Davies LW and LB
Kimmich RB and CM
Javi CDM & and CB

I agree but but players should play their strongest and the positions where they contribute the most not like some coach who was "experimenting " and what happened " to everyone will get their chance we play so many games ? " surely you arent going back on your own words here are you ?

preferably yes... I obviously prefer Kimmich at RB...
But in case of injuries we will have alternatives...

I remember hating seeing Lahm in mdf and with all due respect Rafinha at RB

due to injuries *

^ the muller hate is unbelievable

^ the muller hate is unbelievable

Muller will be our joker card... plus can also make two players rest by replacing them when needed,

[r10]

Title should read '2019/20 No Tactics Thread'

[YlonenXabi]

That should have been the name for last season's thread


This season we actually are more tactically flexible

[ramsej84]

With Mueller integrated in the starting line-up
