Whitey Grandad

That was a dolly drop. The sort that Bazunu deals with comfortably. If Stephens hadn't been so close in he might now be our top scorer.

Is that a green card offence?

Twice!

Not in August we aren't.

Her words exactly! Uncanny.

Now you're just being silly. I'm just attempting to introduce a sense of perspective. Of course I like someone better. But I've not seen many of them available to be honest.

But your description of our goalkeeper is exactly that.

Much better since I've had my prostate checked, thanks 😀

I'm afraid it doesn't have to be deliberate any more 😒

The coincidence is that you're the one who's watching 😉

'Utter rubbish' is patently nonsense. Pure hyperbolics.

That confirms what I wrote. What about deflections as the shot is taken? I understand the method very well. It's crap.

A public humping is too good for him.

I bet you're fun at car crashes 😉

She says the same thing to me.

Is that the 'Dead Wood'?

As an intellectual study i can understand why you might. I also need a good laugh.

'Most stats' from how many sources?

No but so what? We are talking about a so-called statistical analysis here.

Let's hope not 🫣

That's one thing that it isn't. Any statistical analysis will at least publish a confidence interval.

I think 5 at the back makes things worse. They leave the ball to someone else thinking they're going to deal with it.

"The worst" by what measure? By results? We got promoted despite him? Presumably he played a large part in that much-vaunted unbeaten run.

Always? No random system is truly random and depending on the methodology they will all have inherent biases. As far as I know there is only the one source for these fact-fodders. What I am saying is use your own eyes and experience to judge. Don't try to back up your judgment with numbers that seem to agree with your own prejudiced views.

We have been over this many, many times. xGC is generated by a computer program that converts a video of a game by converting it into the equivalent of a PlayStation football simulation and then decides whether or not a goalkeeper should have saved a goal by comparing such simulation with previous examples. As a scientific exercise it is beyond contempt. Only a mug would be fooled by it. It doesn't take into account small deflections caused by an attempted intervention, for example, because it can't. So it doesn't. This is a butterfly flapping its wings scenario where a small tweak to the algorithm leads to extreme fluctuations in outcomes. 11.1 goals 😆😆😆 Leaving aside the fact that a quantity of goals can only be a discrete number, so far this season we have played 3 games and conceded 4 goals.
