Yep, for a while you could almost bank on us conceding 2.
Dovin has done well the 7 conceded in this run since Christmas really is rather good.
Yep, for a while you could almost bank on us conceding 2.Without Haji, EMC you are going to struggle to get the same xG.
Interesting stat there tho is the below 1 XG against for quite a few teams. While having high XG is good, it does not favours if we have to score three to get three points like we did earlier in the season
Contrary to your xG outputs.Score doesn’t even matter. I just tune in in May to see the league table.
Given that it is all about money, here is one way of looking at it
London: (7) Arsenal, Brentford, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Spurs, West Ham
Large Cities: (6) Aston Villa, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle
Small Cities: (7) Bournemouth, Brighton, Ipswich, Leicester, Nottingham Forest, Southampton, Wolves
The four relegation threatened clubs are all small cities. Given the domination of Liverpool, in many ways so too are Everton. That would include Coventry. Those bucking the trend have all had substantial inward investment.
The trick is substantial inward investment and a large, uncontested catchment area, preferably in London. Incidentally, have you noticed the rise of Leyton Orient in a part of London where there is only one other club + American owners
Is Newcastle a big city?
Brentford only spent around £30 million on 4 players the first year after promotion, so it can be done.
They already had Raya, Pinnock, Norgaard, Janelt, Mbuemo, and Toney in their squad though. Crazy good squad-building in the Championship
How many year's has that taken to accumulate?Brentfords owner is owed £104m and they lost £8m last season and have an overdraft of £30 million

...will we possibly be found out?

We didn't lose over the 120 minutes and only conceded 1 goal so there was lots of opportunity for either vik or Gus to conjure up some absolute quality out of nothing. I accept we were unlucky to Gus went off injured.Probably quite similar in style/quality to what we're seeing at the moment, the difference being of course that we had Vik and Hamer to conjure up absolute quality out of nothing - which we don't really have currently (certainly not on their level anyway).
And I’ll die on the hill that if Gus didn’t go off the pitch we win in 90 mins. He was starting to become more influential as the game was going onWe didn't lose over the 120 minutes and only conceded 1 goal so there was lots of opportunity for either vik or Gus to conjure up some absolute quality out of nothing. I accept we were unlucky to Gus went off injured.
