  1. Bruce is better than Pards ffs. At least Bruce doesn't slag our players off in public
  2. Won’t be long until he’s 34 Will actually, his birthday was the end of January
  3. 'You're s*** bruv!" Yeah, and you're from Oxford you urban wannabe toff prick! ASM was also completely ripping them apart even before the goal was scored
  4. Been mentioned already no doubt but playing 2 attacking players against League 1 opposition is proper mad
  5. He's probably getting fucked by the club money wise in the negotiations. Often happens when a kid comes through for their local team. The club thinks they can take advantage of their loyalty
  6. He's definitely wanking while he's writing these tweets. Absolute deviant
  7. The one difference you can credit him for is that he's not thrown any of the attackers to the wolves and doesn't look like doing so. I mean blaming them etc. His man management is probably quite decent tbf, we do have a lot of spirit as well
  8. Were getting absolutely battered until the sending off
  9. Can't wait to tell my grandkids about the time Bruce had us in 10th place in February
  10. Bang on, and well put as well
  11. triggs

    St James' Park

    They don't have an unlimited life span like. Presume the bigger one that was there stopped working
  12. I feel like if Lazaro was any good as a wing back he would have played plenty for Inter considering they went after Ashley Young and Victor Moses as upgrades to what they had
  13. Aye, anyone watching us could tell you that we've been shite this season. Same as anyone watching Liverpool this season could tell you that they've been really clinical without performing that great in lots of games. That's just what the xG is telling you. It isn't an exact science of course. Its basically just if 11 were up against 11 and each player is the average player what the average result would be. If say Arjen Robben cuts in on his left and hits one in the far top corner, that's obviously much more likely to happen that if it was the average player but that doesn't tell you anything about how well Bayern played. How many times have we heard "Barca are playing shite" in the last few years? They get away with it because they have Messi who's the best player in the world and constantly outperforms his xG
  14. That Joelinton header off the bar was not a good chance It was 2 inches from being a goal man. How’s a good cross and good header not a good chance? It doesn't matter if it hits the bar. If someone hits the bar from a strike from 35 yards it doesn't make it a good chance. I don't think you know how expected goals works I know exactly how it works which is why I don’t agree with using the way some do. Liverpool would be 2nd under xG man. Well the way you're talking about that header it doesn't sound like you know how it works. The result has no impact on the xG of the chance. Kante also had a one on one in that game against Dubs which was probably a better chance than any of our chances. Willian had a decent chance inside the box off his left. Abraham had a chance from about 6 yards out which Dubs saved Liverpool have been lucky in many games this season but of course they are deservedly winning the league. Liverpool are very good at winning games where they are slightly the better team or even games. How many times in the league have Liverpool won without playing that great this season? Loads Aye but they won those games, regardless of how they played, which is contradictory to your point How is it contradictory? I said they're very good at it. Teams that win the league tend to outperform their xG. It's better to judge lesser teams who are more at an even playing field. Southampton were massively underperforming their xG while they were in the relegation zone, suddenly they go on a great run, it wasn't just random, they were getting unlucky earlier in the season. Same with Watford to a lesser extent
