[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

Nope there poor performances are pretty much expected at this point. Thats not being lucky or unlucky.

[@andreasdefeuth6737]

According to understat, they should be 11th, but currently they are sitting 14th. They are underperforming their xG and overperforming the xGA, meaning they are actually conceding lees than they are supposed to, while missing more goals than they are supposed to. They are 14th on the xGA table, which is obviously a sign that the tactics are inviting a lot of chances against. Apparently, this is what EtH wants with the 'transition' mentality, but they remain incapable of defending their goal. If I were the coach, I would probably stick another defender down there in order to have more protection, but that would mean EtH would have to change his formation, which is clearly not going to happen due to his stubbornness. Attack should sort out itself when you have good players and relations, just get them closer to each other instead of all this wide play all the time - would allow for quicker combinations and shorter passes, making defenders have to rethink their choices multiple times. I agree with you, they are quite lucky. I think he's going to get sacked before Christmas.

[@andreasdefeuth6737]

[@willwilliams9582]

So much prefer this level of considered analysis versus the tabloid shite the Athletic has been pumping out recently

[@curiousuranus810]

Ah, sarcasm!

[@saladorIV]

I think your analysis is a bit flawed. You're explaining why these teams defended badly, but that's already explained by the xG. So Spurs defended badly and let Vardy through on goal, but thats already reflected in the xG. That doesn't explain why their xGD is so different to their Goal Difference. Like yes Man City had lots of low quality shots against Arsenal, but lots of low quality shots equal one good shot. That's the basic principle of xG. The reason they might not have been unlucky is because most of their shots fell to defenders, who aren't as good at finishing.

[@shrisiva4016]

Yup Dias had the most shots out of any City player

[@LukeConnelly1]

Does one good shot equal lots of little ones? Just intuitively: Let's say a shot has an xG of 1 (you score it 100% of the time), and some second shot has an xG of 0.5 If you shoot one shot one, you get one goal If you shoot two shot twos, you get a 50% chance of a goal two times. So that'll either be miss miss, score score, miss score, or score miss, ie. 2 or 0 goals 25% of the time and 1 goal 50%. So while you score the same number of average goals, there's a 25% chance you scored fewer than the opposition who took 1 shot. Is that correct maths or did my brain go bye bye

[@saladorIV]

@@LukeConnelly1 well you'll never get an xG of 1, there's always a chance it won't go in. But in terms of odds two shots of 0.5 xG means you will score 75% of the time, so it's equal to a single shot of 0.75xG. Obviously having two shots also gives you the opportunity to score two goals, whereas one shot can only ever score one goal.

[@nathanhardcastle1729]

I think you've misunderstood the point. He was saying the Leicester game looked unlucky because of how the game went but in reality, it wasn't, the xG was shown as 1.0 vs 1.2 so the 1-1 result was fair. Spurs create this for themselves by playing in high-risk ways but it has the side effect of sometimes making them seem unlucky when the opposition score at a bad moment for them. Spurs have also underperformed their xG numbers but by far less than some other teams so I'd agree they haven't been that unlucky.

[@772364327rhdhqwag]

@@saladorIVwrong. Two 0.5xg shots equals 1xg. That’s how expected value works. As you correctly pointed out, there’s a chance you score 0, a chance you score 1, and a chance you score 2. These probabilities balance out to have an expected value of 1 goal.

[@blasisiagiri]

[@CJAM03]

Arsenal have also already played Villa, Tottenham, City on the road. In a week they played at Tottenham, Atalanta and City. Not to mention Arsenal had a road Thursday CL match prior to City who had a home Wednesday match.. and City were lucky to get the draw due to a bad ref care.

​​@@lebowski6061 You'd argue that's the reason they have poor xg numbers, last season they really had a hard time creating chances from open play without having to play with 10 men or some other "unlucky" reason, they just are moving towards a direction where they just don't generate much through open play and rather are focusing on not conceding much chances in the games.

[@ndexer]

Saying spurs hasn’t been unlucky is weird, yes on the basis of the defence you could say that Spurs has rightfully conceded a couple goals, but what about all the other stats leading up to the attack? Spurs should by far have won against both Leicester and New Castle, sure letting in a goal is due to the way they set up in the build up and possession but the flip side of that is the dominance of the ball and the amount of chances and shots they get, which they haven’t been able to convert in some cases like Leicester where they should have won.

[@tumisveinnsnorrason7379]

It seems a bit of a weird argument to say that Arsenal have been lucky in their unluck when its more explained by the fact that they're just a really good team and that they made changes that helped them get results *despite* all of the unluck. Having referees conspire to send off a man in every game and then having most of their midfield + fullbacks injured in a period of incredibly hard away game against top teams is ridiculous no matter how you look at it, saying "oh well despite it all they're still 3rd" doesn't take away from their unluck.

[@MrHimfromthere]

Another sensitive fan about an analysis made using data, the data just suggests things like the fact that arsenal even last year were poor in xg creation from open play, and that's actually something that is intentional knowing that arteta focuses more on defensive structure and set pieces and big physical players. No need to get emotional about a decision they made using statistics.

You're not wrong.

There's still been no one sent off for kicking the ball away except Arsenal players, despite 100 instances of said infraction, many when the player was already on a yellow. Just stupid, frankly. On top of that, Leicester survived a 5.00 xG thrashing with 0.27 xG because of an absurdly clutch performance by their keeper and 2 equally absurd goals, scored during what was basically their only 2 possessions of the ball inside Arsenal's half in the whole match.

I'd say Manchester United is a good contender to this list. The offside against Brighton with no impact on wether it's a goal or not. It's just offside since the rules are that way. Could argue if a linesman would make that call he wouldn't be certain wether it hit Zirkzee or not and might've given Garnacho the goal since it had no impact. The red card vs Spurs. Anyone who watches football knows that momentum shifts during a game. Sat with a feeling that United could come back into it since Spurs didn't capitalize on their chances that first half. Saw Allardyce and Meulensteen say the same at Big Sam's pod. Then you think normally some of these players capitalize on their chances. There are injuries. Still playing without a LB.

[@jackwhite8204]

Playing without a LB isn't unlucky. Just sign a left back who's not injured for 80% of every season. And I personally think it was a red? I know it's a controversial take, but I think if you slip you're out of control and to then dive into the challenge is reckless and endangers the opponent no matter where your foot ends up, because you have no control over where your foot ends up. And you've got lucky on goals not being ruled out for offside players interfering with play before now, there was an absolutely glaring Rashford one a couple years ago. What goes around comes around.

[@PetterStoners]

@@jackwhite8204 how on earth are you bringing up ref decisions from previous seasons when they are discussing this season? Last season there was so many penalty decisions United didn't get but got against them anyway. From Romero's handball to Højlund being pulled wrestled down vs Arsenal f,ex. The Rashford one vs City was a blunder by the refs but I can assure you there's plenty of situations that go against United that people don't take into account. You think it was a red for Bruno but none of the pundits or even Dermot at Ref Watch thought so. Even the F.A didn't think it was a red since it was rescinded. If you watch the show they refer to injuries being abit unlucky so you can only count em for other teams?

@@PetterStoners you brought up one decision, I'm relatively sure your perspective on the counterexample I brought up would have been "ah well, it wasn't given, deal with it." Also, you're now bringing up examples from previous seasons of completely different and unrelated situations? My point isn't that you were lucky in previous situations, it's that the one specific situation you were talking about can go either way, as you well know. You could call it luck, but complaining about when it doesn't go your way one time when it has famously gone your way when it shouldn't have in the past seems a little hypocritical. And yeah, I know it's a controversial take. That's why I said "I know it's a controversial take" in my reply. Do you deny that he slipped? Do you deny that he was out of control? Or do you deny that it was reckless and dangerous to lunge in like that having slipped and being out of control? Because reckless and out of control and dangerous tackles should get red cards. It's like a high foot - the contact isn't what should matter, it should be the danger to the opponent. If you have two players for a position, one of whom has been out injured for 60% of his career (Shaw) and the other of whom was out for 80% of last season (Malacia), that's not "bad luck" when they pick up injuries simultaneously, that's "entirely predictable because they're injury prone players", and not selling them and getting players that are more robust is awful recruitment.

Surely luck is described as events outside of your control? Not say under performing your xG that sounds like a you problem (the team under performing) I would say Villa have been unlucky in the sense that in the last 2 games alone they should have been facing 10 men but the ref did not send off the opponents against them and that being out of their control could be considered "luck" or rather bad luck in their case. Game 1 against west ham, villa were in control and the ref awards a very soft penalty to west ham they get back in the game and villa no longer dominate, again out of their control so once more bad luck.

I don't really understand this video - Its very inconsistent with their other discussions of 'underlying numbers'. What is the value of xG as a concept to understand how well teams have played if you then point to a very low xg chance going in and say that's the fault of the team conceding the chance and not unlucky? The quality of videos from the old tifo crew has just collapsed since the rebrand - the over focus on shorts is particularly dumb. I really don't need bite size tactical content from a channel that basically only existed for longer from deeper discussions of what's actually happening in the game.
