Wrexham have been ranked as one of the most dominant forces in English football after amassing an astonishing points tally during the 2024 calendar year.
The Red Dragons, backed by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, are fifth in the table for the most points per game won by the 92 Premier League and EFL teams in the last 12 months.
Phil Parkinson's side achieved two points per game across their 45 league fixtures in 2024, with 27 wins, nine draws and nine defeats.
Wrexham earned promotion to League One in April after finishing second in League Two, behind Stockport County. They scored 76 goals in the calendar year while conceding only 33.
Their impressive performance places them alongside Premier League powerhouses like Arsenal, who lead the rankings with 2.36 points per game. Liverpool and Man City follow closely in second and third with 2.30 and 2.16 points, respectively, while Championship leaders Leeds United sit fourth with 2.13 points per game.
The table highlighting Wrexham’s strong performance was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Ben Mayhew, former Head of Data Analysis at PA.
It comes as the north Wales outfit head into 2025 in a strong position, sitting second in League One behind big spending Birmingham City.
While Wrexham's form in the last 12 months has been impressive, one of this season's standout performers believes there is more to come.
Wing-back Ryan Barnett has been involved in nine of the Red Dragons' goals during their current campaign after scoring in their dramatic 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic on Sunday afternoon.
Speaking after the game, as per the BBC, the 25-year-old said: “I still don't even think we've hit our ceiling yet. We've got so much quality in this dressing room and we've got so many more levels that we can go to.
“That's exciting with half of the season left. The squad that the club have assembled is really strong, especially for this league.
“When people get injured or there's a loss of form, other people come in and the quality doesn't really change because that's the kind of characters and players we've brought in.”
