Nowt, I didn't watch them so other than the score, what do I care. other than was it a better result for us Y/N ?

Ok, but thanks to the magic of not being wilfully ignorant and the wonders of xG I can see that West Ham were good value for their win (1.8) and Bournemouth deserved nothing (0.4). Whereas Southampton had some really good chances (1.9) and Brighton had fuck all (0.3), so the score didn't reflect the balance of the chances.

Fish’s argument here is lessened because he’s clearly only got into stats so he has yet another excuse to fill the servers up with another 15GB of text

Gloom mentioned xG and the fucking Last of the Summer Wine crew turned up, is what happened, ACTUALLY.

I tell you what your eyes don't help you with, they don't help you see that throughout all of this I've been saying xG is there to provide additional context and to refute testimonies given in bad faith. Not exclusive context, additional context.

Because knowing whether or not a team is creating/conceding chances in their other games, or games against teams with a similar set up to us gives me a better idea of what might happen in our game, how best we might get a result. If I know that Everton are giving up loads of chances but are reliant on Pickford to dig out a result I can continue my one man crusade against the ill proportioned chav.

 

It's more information on a subject I want to know more information about.

 

Also it matters to Newcastle because they'll be able to better tailor the match plan to counter the threat or capitalise on the weakness.

Au contraire, Gloom mentioned it and I simply made an observation, you challenged there was no evidence to support aforesaid observation, I produced evidence (copious amounts) and you flounced.

If you think that in todays professional game the coaches and analysts won't use every minute detail to gain an advantage in whatever fine margin they can, you're out of your GOD DAMN MIND, sir.

 

Also means you make a bit of money on games you don't care about.

And none of it matters except the final score.

 

p.s. why would anyone give a flying fuck who had the better chances in a game of zero interest to me other than what the FINAL score may mean in relation to NUFC

I don't doubt it but I (and the members of this board) are not professional coaches and analysts. I am a spectator, end of.

 

I don't bet - mugs game. (and if I did, I certainly wouldn't bet using a formula which has a 40% chance of being wrong)

I might tbh, this ongoing circle of people bitching about stats is one of the most tedious things we've had on here for years.
