Holden McGroin 6533 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We are at a point now where we'll give everyone a game. Next few games will be interesting to see how far we've come. With Isak and Shelvey returning our options from the bench will increase as well. Exciting times either way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 32756 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Man U away next, you'll see a more pumped up Man U crowd and side for a reason IMO, they'll know they're in for a game and will see us as a threat. We won't get the blasé game Brighton got there, I absolutely hope we don't get a ludicrous VAR/Ref combo but fear we probably will. Let's also hope there isn't any freak injuries as well as I think we'll have a real chance of doing them. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll win unless we’re done by another dodgy ref/VAR decision -we should have won against Liverpool, could have won against Man City. We’re better than Man U. And if they come out and try to play on the front foot, which they should do at home, it will play into our hands. The game will be won in midfield and ours is better then theirs. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10750 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Quick scatter plots for attack/defence in the Premier League so far. Thicker blue lines are averages. Bottom right is best. Shows we're creating a good number of good chances per game, while allowing a below average number chances against us. Again, bottom right is best as it shows we're scoring a good number of goals per game while not conceding a lot. This last one shows that we're conceding roughly what you'd expect given the quality of chances surrendered. Leicester and Nottingham are conceding way more than you'd expect, so that's either bad keeping, or getting undone by wondergoals. Everton are the other stand out, they're conceding half a goal less than you'd expect given the chances they give up per game. In other words, their defence isn't as good as their GA numbers would suggest and they're heavily relying on their 'keeper to save their bacon.

ewerk 30266 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Given our league position that's reassuring. Basically we aren't where we are because we're lucky, it's a fair reflection of how we've played. We've played five of the top ten also in our opening nine games. I think the matches against Man U and Spurs will give us a better indication of how well we can compete against the sides hoping to qualify for Europe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've probably deserved more points than we have got, thanks to poor officiating. We've not yet had our full first team available either; ASM, Bruno, Callum, Isak, Joe etcetera. Plus we'll strengthen in January. WUHGONNAWINTHALEEEEG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 We have the joint lowest GA in the league with 9 (equal with Man City, Brighton & Everton). I'm struggling to recall a time we've had a more disciplined backline during the 35+ years I've been supporting NUFC. Possibly under Robson when Woodgate was playing but even there, I think our current defence is a far better unit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6533 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 To have such a high press and have that record is very impressive. I think we'll get a couple of tonkings this season but that is natural when you play this way. Much funner than trying to win 1-0. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been quite fortunate to have a shot-stopper as good as Pickford between the sticks. Everton's Post Shot xG +/- is 4.3. Putting it simply, given the shots they've faced, you'd have expected them to have conceded 4 more goals than they have. Given they've not won by more than a goal, that would have turned some wins into draws, and/or some draws into losses. I maintain, Old T-Rex gets injured or loses form and they're bang in trouble again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
