Ratio of goals/games and games/goals takes into account full appearances only. Substitue appearances are not included in the equation. For example, Ole Solskjaer has 29 goals in 52 appearances and 24 subs appearances. To calculate the ratio, we have just divided 52/29 (instead of dividing 76/29) to see how many full games it takes Ole to score. And the same for the reverse - in order to see how many goals Ole scores per game, we have divided 29/ 52 rather than 29/76.
