@YankeeGunner Call me crazy but I’d prefer a challenge system. You get 2 challenges, if you are wrong you lose a sub. Then the play is looked at with a fresh lens, and non of this clear and obvious error stuff. Maybe offsides are always reviewed given their in theory “more objective” nature

@scottjwillis How is Crystal Palace away an easier game for us than Man City’s CP at home (89 vs 95 rating)? Same question but flipped for Chelsea? Is that just a typo?

[zak overy @overyz14]

@scottjwillis I’d love to see the table you’ve done in past years with the average difficulty rating + expected points for Arsenal and Man City’s remaining fixtures

[zak overy @overyz14]

@scottjwillis The model has such high likelihood that the top 3 finish in Champions league spots. Does that feel realistic? I guess this doesn’t take into account injuries which would be the most likely driver of any of those teams finishing outside of those spots?

@HimothyReports I literally wouldn’t take one Spurs player in a Spurs and Arsenal combined 11 so pretty sad if this is your best squad recently

[zak overy @overyz14]

@billycarpy @YankeeGunner The xG difference doesn’t change that much but our finishing is much worse? Not what I would have expected

[zak overy @overyz14]

@YankeeGunner Osimhen feels like a very similar profile to me (up for debate which of them is more refined). Do you think that different option would benefit the team or too disruptive to our style?

[zak overy @overyz14]

@nonewthing Sounds like a more well rounded Aubameyang

[zak overy @overyz14]

@Carra23 I think it is a bit of both. My eye test suggests that we are tactically choosing to slow the play and make fewer agressive passes forward so that we can have more control and reduce risk. Arteta has definitely made changes to skew more towards risk free play

@Dhudlin007 @YankeeGunner @FA_PGMOL Don’t there need to be 2 players keeping a player onside. Gordon was on the goal side of Raya. He was a good yard offside, plain to see

[zak overy @overyz14]

@ms_muktar16 Szobozlai forsure! Has the running power and verticality needed for that role

[zak overy @overyz14]

@YankeeGunner The brutal thing is that closing this loophole only protects Chelsea because now no one else can do it and half of Chelsea’s contracts will continue to operate under it

[zak overy @overyz14]

@NewsheriffUtd This is actually just false. Saka has something like 10 more PL goals

[zak overy @overyz14]

@YankeeGunner Hearing this news makes Tierney staying make way more sense. There will be pairs of Timber and Tierney as fbs or white and Zinchenko

[zak overy @overyz14]

@WhoScored Smith Rowe scored 11 in that time period though

[zak overy @overyz14]

@YankeeGunner The way that Elliot has grown on me over the years is incredible. Definitely the main reason I come to the pod now!

[zak overy @overyz14]

@oh_that_crab @YankeeGunner I imagine the model isn’t really capable of incorporating new signings?

[zak overy @overyz14]

@_clc7 @oh_that_crab Based on the stat! I’m saying Meslier is good but performed really poorly based on the metric, which is making me not trust the metric

[zak overy @overyz14]

@daddydizzle27 @oh_that_crab My point is these were good keepers who all did poorly based on the metric, so the metric feels broken

[zak overy @overyz14]

@daddydizzle27 @oh_that_crab On the stats, not on eye test
