If that is related to xG, I’m not sure what the big deal is?

xG measures the quality of chance created. Rashford’s 25-yard stunner wasn’t a chance. It was a pattern of play that would result in one goal every 100 times.

Haaland, meanwhile, missed an open goal from 3 yards which you’d expect a player to score from 99 times out of 100.

I caught the half-time stats only and it showed City 0-1 United, 17-2 in shots and an xG of 1.7 - 0.3 or something like that.

When watching the highlights later that made total sense. Rashford’s goal was scored out of very little and City had several good first-half chances.

 

It went in. It will always go in unless a goalkeeper managed to save it. Because it was on target. And since you don't have time to bet between Rashford shooting and it going in, it's not helpful. Will it guide you in your betting?

0.3 chance of Rashford's goal going in, apparently.

What cobblers.

Thanks, I'm really overdue a re-watch of it. For me, some of Mel Brooks' films fall a bit flat but this one is a classic.

Give over. It's nothing like that.

Such a disappointment. To be in such a strong position before start of play to this  it couldn't have gone much worse.

Can still win though. Gonna take something superhuman. Time for the captain to have a bowl.

Today's gone pretty poorly so far. We'll have to bat bloody well in the lower order to get a lead anywhere near 300.

Warne going for the draw, lovely jubbly.

zzzzzzzzzz

Our quicks being able to hit those cracks will be crucial. The ball was jagging about a bit and the one that got Stokes practically rolled along the ground

Gabbiadinis second touch was usually a tackle, that’s why he looked like he worked hard.

Kitson was a technically a better player but always came across as a miserable sod

He was a miserable sod

Nice. Could you follow that up with the names of the people in the 'Fun fact' section?

My wife thinks I'm quaintly old-fashioned for still calling them 'sides'. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one.

Loving these customised Trump bad boys.  $ 400.  I keep getting a flashback of Apollo Creed dancing to Living in America. You can get perfume as well.

400 sovs- blimey.

They definitely won't fall apart quicker than a fraudulent university either.

Nice to wake up to this. What a shambles.

Looks like we are losing 2 points on this game.

Given that bolton are 2 games behind and Barnsley are challenging, looks like we should have signed a quality striker in January.

You clearly haven't been to Ireland for a while

I've never heard of TNT sports

Has anyone researched the success rate in gambling of expected goals over, say, tossing a coin or chucking a dart?

This one has really hit me hard. Celebrity deaths don't do that normally.

I've been trying to figure out why.

I think it's because he has just been a constant presence all my life , chatting away in the background in the kitchen. I was just listening to his show Sunday morning. Who knew he was almost 70? He still sounded like he was 30.

Whatever misery was going on in the world his shows always brought a smile. I remember hanging out with my mates on the school playing field, all of us trying to copy his Mr Angry character back in the 80s.

I guess his voice takes me back to those childhood times of footy in the park and back home for tea at 5pm on the dot or there would be hell to pay.

His death reminds me of the parents I have lost and those incredible childhood friendships  I'll never have again.

Rest well Steve.

Hence the song 'Panic' by the Smiths - Wright played some syrupy Wham song right after a news flash about Chernobyl.

Well I reckon "disinterested" means you were interested but not now...and "uninterested" means you never have been interested? Something like that anyway.

A ref is disinterested, as in unbiased. Not an ionterest in one side or another.

CBT really does look disinterested in any defensive work at all at the moment, no intensity to his play.

Of how many goals you deserve with the same quality, or how many you should score after 1000 games.

Same as if you roll a dice, the actual outcome will be anything, the expected value (3.5) is what you deserve to get.

To what end?
