Emerson Royal

I think the swing in our favour could be as high as 20%
Assuming we dont start doing an Aurier and nutting a mans back

We got around 20% for goals scored last season.

That is doable, perhaps, but probably requires some luck going our way.

Even with that I think we need to improve our chance creation (xG) to get to where we want to be this season.

We will see
We just need to do the basics better from last season for me
Score tap ins, concede worldies
I’ll take that
 
Good engine strong tackles I like him already. Just seems to do the basics right. Hope he acclimatises quickly, definitely can do with some basic defending out there so midfield can support attack more. Two weeks quarantine? So maybe debut around end Sept?

From stuff I've read, rather than the blood-and-guts highlight videos, it seems that he's very much an attacking FB, who probably needs a bit of work on the defensive side of his game.

I don't think that's such a bad thing if we'll be playing a back 5, but I worry about it in a 4.

Why two weeks? 10 days max (if not vaccinated), could be as few as 5, he's coming from Spain (amber list)

But I'd expect his debut in the European games, so yes, end of Sept

It's a measure, not a metric - and is misleading to use in isolation, especially by people that don't fully understand it (ie fans).
At base level it needs combining with the complimentary quantitative measure of goals scored.
The shots on target.
Then measured against the shot:goals target ratio.
Then you can introduce the qualitative measures like:
Who the ball goes to
At what pace and angle it gets there.
Weather conditions.

It's effectively just a data point

Used in conjunction with other data points, a deeper understanding of the variables (e.g. do you expect your shots to fall to Kane or Sissoko), what tactics you use, etc. Could be of use.

Of course with everything idiots & media get hold off, it's now being touted as some sort of "match winner indicator"

I've got a new stat called xGG. It times the number of games we win by 3, and the number of times we draw by 1. I've compared this with other teams in the league, and we've actually got the best stats.

Its probably far more use then the one being used by the stats junkies now. ;)
 
" clunky and physical"... Haha watch out for Sissoko comparisons
“ second best right back behind Trippier “...... Why did we sell him?

But yeah sounds like they were disappointed to lose him to the epl and predict big things for the young man starting under Nuno who speaks his language and can teach him things

Good to hear that they think spurs fans will be be surprised with Emerson.

TI thought he was solid today. the Jaw didn't really do much, apart form get lucky with a brick penalty and roll around on the ground a lot.
