Reminder you can track Exp Goal numbers as they happen for all #PremierLeague #EFL Championship & #LaLiga games with the @InfoGolApp #MUFC
Just a 0.2% chance an average player betters or equals the 4 NP goals Mark Harris has scored for #oufc #skybetchampionship based on his attempts POTM shared with extreme +ve variance. The more blue, the more solid the underlying scoring process. #wba #MillwallFC #SUFC #boro #NCFC
. #SkyBetLeagueTwo #SkyBetLeagueOne #EFL #xG differential performance after 5/4 games, adjusted for strength of opposition, arranged in current league position. Blue>Red. Who's more or less where they deserve to be & who isn't.
About a 98.5% chance that an average keeper concedes 2 or more goals #AzeSwe #NationsLeague last night. Viktor Johansson #scfc conceded just the one. Decent night for the new keeper.
How improving metric differentials in #PremierLeague improves your points per game yield. No judgement on the direction of causation (crosses, obviously is reversed) or whether improvement is largely driven by the elite.

So, here is an article on my thoughts & ideas about xG
xG has been a massively polarizing data parameter and it is misused too much
Have a read and let me know your thoughts

Metric differentials for #skybetchampionship after wk 3. How are they progressing the ball, what's the #xG breakdown, are they getting the ball in the box more than the opposition, how high's the defensive line/pressing. Blue is generally better, arranged in league position.
Early days in the #SkyBetChampionship, but enough games to get some collateral form & opponent adjusted #xG differentials. Who's impressed with points & xG, #SAFC #WBAFC #Burnley #LUFC. Who's had the rough end of the schedule & or not quite had the breaks. #LTFC #CardiffCity.
xThreat, non shot #xG differential etc, call it what you want, in every #PremierLeague match in match week order for 23/24 season. Three very dominant sides #MCFC #AFC #LFC Four fairly dominant teams & a couple from the top ten who might have been in the bottom 10 & vice versa.
Over 40% of #HCFC 23/24 #skybetchampionship playing minutes will need to be replaced with new blood in 24/25. Here's the player churn for the rest of the sides.
.#BurnleyFC #SUFC #LTFC reunited with the #skybetchampionship Defensive improvement has been consistent for relegated teams, change in attacking output has been much more varied. Kudos to the two teams who had a smaller share of league xG in the Champ than they'd had in the PL.
Season previews & superficial guff go hand in hand. Latest to hit the news stand is that the 3 relegated #PremierLeague teams were historically poor defensively. Account for the #xG environment they played in etc & their performance was fairly typical for recently promoted teams.
.#SkyBetChampionship is now a wrap. Here's the managers who made your side good enough to stay up #SCFC #SWFC #QPR #MillwallFC , which stuck with managers & let #xG variance do the heavy lifting #PNEFC #Bluebirds & who was managed by Wayne Rooney #BCFC
