Well more fool you for not getting a tram, that's what I say.

"Transport (... Currently, the stadium can be reached by different kinds of public transport. By buses: 103, 403, 435 and tram 18, 21 from the north side, and by the trams 3, 10, 20, 22, and bus 128 from the south side.[22] [...]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrocław_Stadium I fucking love a tram me. They're like hyper buses.

Hell yeah! If in-house media doesn't do a Tonali 80's training montage then quite frankly they should all be sacked.
-
Yeah I knew about the others, in fact I knew about the goal kicks in the past, but just had a bit of twatbrain thinking 'keeper's booted it forward & he's in a offside position. Bastard.' No time for proper consideration when there's outrage to be had!

But isn't this basically the point of xG? It's to analyse each individual shot and say, regardless of what the shooter actually did, was it a statistically good goal scoring chance? Rather than just relying on a cruder law of averages. xG doesn't say who deserved to win on overall play (a particularly good GK should mean you outperform your xG against, a particularly clinical striker means you would outperform your xG). A defensive howler could gift you a gilt-edged chance or a penalty out of nothing that gives you extra xG the quality of your play didn't deserve. xG, as far as I understand it, just tells you: based on the shots this team took, this is how many goals we would expect them to score. There's useful information to get from that, but also limitations. Just like any individual statistic.

Ah is that right, for some reason didn't know that
-
There's also some subtle stuff with VAR - like less outright diving in the box because players know it'll get picked up on. Yes there's a bit still, but probably less than there was before.
-
EDIT: I'm wrong about this, as craigmadge points out For their second goal, Toney wins the intial flick on but he was about 5 yards offside when it was played forward to him, (see 8.10 when the goalie launches it forward), so that shouldn't have stood. Would have been a shame as it was an outrageous finish but still, rulez is rulez.

Europa League at the moment, but if Man U win the FA cup, Man U get the Europa League spot and Chelsea drop to Conference. I think that's how it is.

If his technique was as good as his knee slides he'd be some player.
-
Nice to see Pope back, though he hasn't played in, what, over 5 months? There is a bit of risk of lack of match sharpness tbf. Also we're crap away from home so I'm not very confident about this. Murphy, Longstaff and Krafth as our right-sided trio has been found a little lacking in the past.
-
Feel like they should have been saturday kick offs. If you win the league on the final day surely you want saturday night to enjoy it.
-
Tbf the entire gambling industry works on the principle of 'you give us some money, on average we'll give you less back.'
-
Out of curiosity, which team got the goalkeeper?
-
I'll never look at granny's doilies the same way ever again.
-
If they're fresh chips, like Villa's this year, I don't think they should be begrudged enjoying them for a bit. It's only when the chips have been around for a little while and gone stale that they need pissing on IMO.
-
That one took me a moment tbh
-
I'm all in favour of basing our recruitment on creating silly phrases with our lineup tbh. We're never going to bloody win anything, might as well have a laugh.
-
Should ground share with them if we rebuild SJP!
-
Feel like he's one of those that should get some minutes next year to see how he does.

This waiting is intolerable. And as dodgy as these have been all year they still have some good players and are still at home, and we've not exactly been playing that great most of the time. Really can't say what result I think is most likely.
