Season 24 Division 2 Stats and Facts review.

+16 VA ,+8.5 PVA AC Milan top the stats.

Champs and 2^nd place Villa would normally have headed the stats but Milan’s mighty seasonal rise was too much to beat. Noticable big VA of +7 for Spurs who make the playoffs and Zagreb who just lose out.  Cruziero and “relegation fodder “Man Utd also had great seasons and a big VA.  However, where there are swings there are roundabouts and the roundabout has turned for a number of teams.

Liverpool had a dire season and somehow got themselves relegated when they could have been promoted , they rightly get the lowest PVA and VA in the division.  Genoa still in the playoffs mind you but they and Internacional should have been looking at straight promotion. PSG also had a huge negative VA and found themselves relegated. A much bigger swing than D1. 2 of the 4 predicted relegated team were relegated and had PSG and Liverpool not binned their seasons that would have been 3, still ifs buts and maybes butter no crumpets and those who stay up do so on their merits.
