It's a new take on the "diamond in the rough" archetype. Pukki is a Norwich striker who is disproportionately celebrated despite being at such an mediocre club. Plus he is Finnish and has several of his countrymen on Yea Forums referencing him as elite at every opportunity.

You should be thankful the Finbros are so based. Imagine what happens if Pulisic scores a hat trick. They legitimately might have to permanently shut down this board forever.

xG is fucking bullshit. That fact that anyone falls for it baffles me
people just incorrectly act like xg is "the" stat like per in basketball or war in baseball (these stats may also not be "the" stats, i don't watch these sports i don't know) or whatever when it clearly isn't and stats in football so obviously have decades to go before we can realistically try to describe or analyse the sport with pure numbers

Logan Murphy
haha omg lol im gonna die haha
Mason Cruz
As a dedicated FPL player who knows every single one of these stats, it’s bullshit. It doesn’t account for the factor that can’t be measured, that being if a team actually has it in them on the day to go out and get a certain number of goals. Today’s 17:30 kickoff match was a good example of that. You clearly haven’t played sports in your life
Finns are the most autistic nationality. Everyone sitting at their desk jobs at Nokia thinking of memes all day and not making eye contact with each other. Even their athletes look goofy and awkward.

xG = Expected Goals. In other words, how many goals their attacks should have produced but didn't for some reason. It was brought up to defend United sucking.

>In 2015 Dyche claimed one prominent manager told him to "move with the times" when it came to diving in the modern game, while in 2016 the Clarets boss called for retrospective bans which would eradicate diving from football "in six months".
>Left frustrated, a year later he claimed "no-one cares" about trying to eradicate diving from English football - and last season added "no-one wants to deal with it".
The reason is, Dyche, is because it's incredibly difficult to work out the difference between a dive and an overreaction. Dyche literally uses diving as a scapegoat. The reason nobody else talks about it is because they understand nothing can be done. I have, sometimes, gone 'why wasn't be booked for that dive', granted, but that's when it has been blantantly obvious. You COULD theoretically have a team watch a match and then then apply retroactive punishments but which FA would want to ban people who bring in money? Dyche says this shit constantly and he'll claim it as some virtue and him fighting for something great; in reality, he doesn't want to admit his team failed to beat a bad team and the reason is diving. Yet complains about the ball hitting the hand of his player and it being a free-kick despite the rules stating this applies even accidentally. A new rule, granted, but he argues the toss. It's an excuse. Diving gets fixed and he has no scapegoat.
It's all so tiring.

“So that’s the next aim, to try and do it in a competitive match, either in the Premier League or Champions League. That would be nice.”

Whats so hard to understand, it explains well how many chances a team created and gives them a numerical value that is better than shots on goal, etc. It shows, statistically, who should have won the match and that if they played this same game several times, who would win more often. Its far less subjective than most other football analysis. Plebs just find it too difficult to comprehend what it actually shows.
Elijah Carter
What's so hard to understand, it's inaccurate and a shitty indicator? Stat nerds just find it too difficult to actully watch the game

depends on whose xG you are talking but some super nerds have collated data from thousands of games and measured how likely a goal is scored from each position on the pitch, including how many players between him and goal, whether under pressure or not, how ball is received, etc. and have run massively successful business betting based on these statistical indicators they developed. There is a book called "matchplan" that explains all that. Of course its still massively flawed (e.g. Lucien Favre's teams are consistently above their xGs, Brazil Germany 1-7 was actually higher xG for Brazil, etc.) , which is why footy is better than all those american "sports", but there is no denying that, looking at the big picture (and betting on it), the stats do work and will get better.

Tyler Bennett
>During the three years following the 2015 Women’s World Cup, the women’s team brought in slightly more revenue from games than the men’s team did.
>if both teams played and won 20 "friendly" matches in a year, the women would earn a maximum of $99,000 and the men would earn an average of $263,320, according to the suit.
>When the Wall Street Journal audited the federation’s financial reports, it found that the U.S. women’s soccer games earned more than the men’s games, in total, during three years after the women’s team won the World Cup in 2015.
They are a better side in their sport than the men's team and also bring in more money. Why should they be paid less?
US Soccer pay salaries to the US women, something they don’t do for the men. Most players on the USWNT earn salaries of around $100,000, plus as much as $67,500 for competing in the US Soccer-backed NWSL. The men have to earn all their compensation from bonuses only.
US Soccer argues that the USWNT have a better built-in safety net. National team players who also play in NWSL have their club salaries picked up by the Federation. This benefits both allocated national team players, who can be paid more than their clubs might be able to afford, and their clubs, who can sign top women’s national team players who would otherwise cost too much. (It’s also good for US Soccer, who have a vested interest in their national team players staying in the United States and building up domestic club soccer instead of signing with big clubs in Europe.) Players are also able to receive some health insurance, severance pay if they’re cut from the team, and, critically, half-pay maternity leave.
