How many idiots recording themselves watching football is there?

I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it, would ruin the match experience...plus I say some stupid **** when we are losing/winning, so would be embarrassing too :lol:

Would pay money to watch you watching Arsenal, especially with your accent.

It's absolute bollocks. I was open to the idea of xG at first but the longer it has been the more I've realized none of these nerds know what the f*ck they're doing.

I back it because it does actually tend to even out over the course of a year. It’s not meant to be used with such a tiny sample size of one game.

The penalty Jorginho missed is worth like 0.75xG which explains a huge chunk of it. It’s literally just a shot counter that’s a bit better than saying “we had x shots with y on target.”

Not really a stat worth getting annoyed about once you look into it, I’m a recent convert.

I don't know about G. If you looked at big chances this game could have been 6-2. There is no way other than through a total fluke where Chelsea get anything out of it.

For me the XG today tells an obvious story, if Chelsea used their striker expert and turning those crosses into goals, they win. Beyond that it was an even game with things going our way (2 flukes), just like the United one but a bit more watchable

Just finished watching a replay. WTF happened here?!? I'm so happy right now. Result was great but deary me it was a completely different team out there. Not just in terms of personnel, but tactics, confidence, energy. **** off and get in.

Also I'm a bit drunk.

But COME ON, did we just get our Arsenal back? Joga bonito at the carpet, you love to see it.

COYG! :drool:

Like I still can't get my head around what happened with the lineup, the tactics, the game plan. Was Arteta so threatened he just went "**** it, it's my last resort..."

Martinelli, ESR, Saka... so friggin glad they got the chance and took it. And Tierney... future club captain right there - honestly though, just give it to him now - dominating the left on his own, whether in defence or attack.

This reminds me back in 2007 when we were on an unbelievable losing streak only to win 2-1 against an on form Man Utd side.

Willian should be sold or be left to serve pizza for Kante and nothing else.

MoTM - Leno.
