We’ve had Expected Goals (xG), we’ve had Expected Assists (xA), now we have Expected Threat (xT) - but what is it? What does it tell us? How can you spot it in-game?

I think for xT to be most effective it needs to be used in conjunction with Packing. Packing is basically comparing how many opposition players are between the ball and the goal when I receive the ball and when I release the ball. So essentially it measures how effective my pass or dribble (or both) was at taking opposition players out of the game. It's similar to xT but uses the other team as a reference point rather than an area of the pitch. Combining the two probably would be very effective in finding the most effective progressive players

fantastic idea, however set-pieces could skew with the results. A player like van dijk winning a header that passes 5-6 opposition players in the 18yard box will have a much higher value than someone like grealish playing a high risk pass to set an attacker 1 on 1 with a goalkeeper after beating 1 player with his dribbling. Grealish would obviously be the better ball progressor however the metric would indiate it to be van dijk. I think the spacing of the other 21 players on the pitch has to be integrated in some way.

Much more information needs to be used in order to create a realistic calculation of value added from these events. For example player movement speed while in action and opposition average position on the field.. but it seems as this is not a part of the data and therefore not considered in the stat. It is very hard to find the perfect measure for this though. But as data increases the value of these measures do as well.

This is a really cool stat, and goes some way on exploring something I’ve always wanted to see more data for: the pass before the assist. So many players get labelled with this idea that they’re amazing playmakers who don’t get many assists because “they get the pass that leads to the assist”, it’s always baffled me that we didn’t have some way of quantifying that. I would also include things like tackles and interceptions into this. Winning the ball higher up the pitch definitely gives more threat than winning it in your penalty box.

This xT stat reminds me of American Soccer Analysis’ goals added (g+) model. They use some sort of machine learning model, the details of which go over my head, to estimate the net effect on expected scoring of every action a player takes during a game. xT seems to be the same process, but with a specific focus on the impact of passes and dribbles. By contrast, g+ also measures impact of shots, fouls, pass receptions, and “interruptions” (a catch all for defensive actions).

There are so many conditional probabilities involved in a model like this. I have not seen any documentation on it, but it seems like it has to make so many assumptions to avoid those. Regardless, my suspicion is that this stat is, at best, meaningful only at a team context (and not match-up), or at worst, over-fitting historical outcomes.

This could probably help revolutionize defensive stats too. Defensive prowess is nearly impossible to quantify with the current metrics but something along the lines "xT reduced" could probably help change the game. A tackle in the box should be a lot more valuable than a tackle in the midfield and I believe xT could help us predict that.

Expected Threat makes use of Monte Carlo Simulation and cumulative probability to estimate the chance of scoring from the opponent's perspective. Looking past match data is a direct way for estimation but ignores the dynamic flow and shocks of a football game. This concept compensates for that flaw by adding the scoring chances when the player moves and passes the ball closer to the opponent goal post. Nonetheless, estimating scoring chance also has to look at players and clubs stats, since player training and club management can have a significant impact on their success in league matches.

At 2:15, rather than adding the numbers together I'd be more tempted to subtract the number at the end of the move from the number at the start of the move. In that case 0.007 - 0.003 = 0.004 xT added by the move.

A couple of issues jump out immediately. First is that this doesn't seem to take into account where the opponents and team-mates are. You could pass the ball forwards to a team-mate who receives it and then is mugged by the 3 opponents surrounding him. Making such a pass is a bad decision, but with this metric would count as 'good' because there are many other similar forward passes that increase threat. Similarly, a crowded winger switching play to a team-mate in space but in line has made a good decision but wouldn't get any kudos from this. Second is, when compiling all this into a player, ignoring their fails makes it meaningless. Always going for risky passes that if successful are certain goals, but generally failing and hence not being counted will inflate a player's 'worth'.

I just don't see this giving a lot to football journalism. It often now just comes to putting out some stats for a player instead of just describing him as maybe a good presser or bad finisher. It just feels like you complicate a lot. Just using numbers instead of words to describe something. And after all I can't remember the exact numers anyways. Also with this xT. How does it consider if you playing against a low block? Having the ball near the Box isn't that much of a threat when there are eleven man behind it. So passing it around the box may result in higher xT then when the opposition team only comes in the box maybe twice but on good counters.

Football is in desperate need of stats. It makes you so tired people constantly come with total goals only. Its just nonsense and more away from the real picture than anything else. We lack shot conversion rate, shot accuracy, pass accuracy just everything. Averages are the most important. I dont give a damn if player x scored 10 more goals than player y, but needed 100 more shots. American sports record everything since decades, which also makes it way easier to compare eras. In football thats not possible at all. You seriously have people comparing peles goal total to someone else...... Its ridiculous.

Because even a half decent cross into the box which just goes out to a goal kick would have high xT but in reality, that cross isn't that threatening.

I'm worried that this stat favours players who make hazard passed that sometimes work but usually just give the poll to the opposition who then has a high expectation to score. If you don't give negative points for failed passes that help the opposition, the defenders who keep doing dangerous forward passes when the right thing would be to play the ball to the keeper, rack up more points than sensible defenders.

The concept of xT always went over my head. This video made it pretty clear tho. But some football stats seem one-sided. For example, a player with brilliant movement can increase his team's chances of goals by pulling defenders towards him and thus giving his teammates free space. But the players xT wouldn't increase in this regard. Actually I don't see many stats which compliment off the ball movement. Football stats are great & gradually improving but there's still a long way to go.

Great video. I get that this metric is trying to identify some early positive work, whether or not a goal is scored, but does it totally exclude forward progress provided by an assist? I presume it does because Harry Kane was the leading assist in the PL last year and is not featured in the list. The metric definition needs to be clear on this. I can believe Grealish is top but where's Maddison, Kante, Tielmans, all of whom produce more threat than e.g. Henderson. I hope that the designers of this metric (which I think is a great concept) go back and review parameters to identify improvements.

What is the timeframe for a goal occuring after having been in that position necessary for it to be counted?

Sounds like a stat that is still in development, needs some tweaking of parameters to really represent what you want it to.

this model actually makes attacking roles players play could be measured. How good those players on building up their team attack, pressing, and opening up for link-up play.

Well, Grealish is a great player, but i suspect his numbers will fall this season. Why? He’s no longer going to be carrying the ball from midfield to attack, he’l recieve the ball higher as he’s in a more dominant team. It’ll also be harder to create chances as the opposition will be more defensive.
