It’s only 5 games. So only a small sample size. You could be right and it just be about variance. The worst could still be to come !!

yeah depends what’s on that bloody iPad!!! My guess it is a delayed live feed though. May have some data on it too though I guess. I suppose if you look at the goals we’ve conceded in isolation it makes more sense though. Quite a few from outside the area or angled finishes. I think we’ve...

Set pieces too I would suggest. But yeah that’s fair. I would agree with the premise that in terms of in game tactics it’s harder to impact, especially in the moment. But look at a stat like xG, I’d be willing to wager that the distance of the average shot has got shorter since it became more...

He’s under performed in the sense that he’s conceded two very low value shots against Newcastle. That doesn’t mean it’s his fault. Obviously Dawson deflects one and the other goes in the top corner. He should save the one at Forest mind you. On the flip side, Sa basically saving for 3 months...

Disagree. Plenty of stats/metrics that show what people think they’ve seen is often pretty wrong. A useful tool that plenty still hasn’t quite made full use of (which I think is good because if everyone did it would be pretty boring, it’s where Brighton and Brentford have been able to make...

I’m not sure that’s fair. I also don’t think the athletic article is suggesting analytics don’t have a place in football. I think what it does show is that our keepers have under performed so far against what they’ve faced. And we are now reverting to the mean a bit in front of goal

So dumb!

Yeah, O’Neil being shit doesn’t mean he isn’t a prick.

Currently injured I think

I thought Rogers was quite lucky to stay on the pitch too

Hard to tell. He’s had some good moments, but equally when he ran through towards goal in the first half I never thought he’d score at any point. Bit of a Doyle of a shot too.

It’s alright, I’ll just remind you of the time you started the #BigSamIn campaign

Allardyce is finished at any level as a manager. And he’s horrible. I’d rather have Lage than him.

Can’t believe you are the one getting banned tonight

Do you think? He spent his first few games blaming Lopetegui for everything. Then when we had a reasonable run he couldn’t wait to brag about how brilliant he was. So when he’s being very open in his interviews at that point he’s a “breath of fresh air”. Soon stopped sharing hasn’t he. I don’t...

It’s never his fault. But if we beat Liverpool next week he’ll gladly show his analysis and preparation

Ffs

I think what’s pissing me off a lot is I HATE being in the championship. Horrible league to be stuck in. I know this is our 7th season in the premier league and maybe I’m ungrateful but I thought at one point we wouldn’t have to go back there for a good while.

Agreed. Sadly

I’m fucking sick of it. Can’t believe people make excuses for this bellend.
