GOALS: Ivan Toney only played 11 of the 38 Posh matches of 2020 and yet he is still the club’s second-highest scorer in 2020 with 11 goals. The man bought to replace Toney, Jonson Clarke-Harris (pictured), has managed a very creditable 12 goals in 20 appearances. Siriki Dembele (10) is the only other Posh player to reach double figures in the last 12 months. Posh scored 70 goals in those 38 matches and conceded 41. Darren Ferguson’s side scored an impressive 47 goals in 19 home matches. Remarkably 16 different players have scored for Posh in the 25 games of the current season. Only 13 different players scored for Posh in the 44 games of the shortened 2019-20 campaign. Top scorers 2020: 12 Clarke-Harris, 11 Toney, 10 Dembele, 8 Jack Taylor, 6 Sammie Szmodics, 4 Mo Eisa, 3 Dan Butler, Flynn Clarke, Joe Ward. Photo: Midlands
