In isolation yes. But as an indicator of play, along with shots on target, possession and corners it’s actually a decent insightThis xG is absolute nonsense.
It's not something to live by but it does show how much we limited decent chances today. Think they had 12 shots today, but 8 were outside the box. We had similar amount but 8 shots were inside the boxThis xG is absolute nonsense.
I'm an old cynic but even I'm warming to itThis xG is absolute nonsense.
It’s not though is itThis xG is absolute nonsense.
And now for the classified results, read by James Alexander-Gordon....Sunderland 1... Leeds United 0.4...It’s not though is it

It’s a bookies wet dreamThis xG is absolute nonsense.
What's it like back there in the 1980's mate?This xG is absolute nonsense.

I'm old school, I just count how many goals go in and work it out from there![]()
All jokes aside marra, I get it, however, it still comes down to 11 vs 11 and the better side normally wins. I don't need a technical analyst to tell me that a poor striker scores less goals than a better oneHave you never picked the bones out of a match after though and talked about thing like one side having more chances but they were all half-chances, and the other having more clear-cut ones?
It turns out it’s quite useful to put a quantifiable value to that. Useful enough for top clubs to invest loads into trying to understand it among a set of other statistics.
