Of course it's skewed, I said that initially, but I've also watched each game and those stats represent exactly what I've seen. Brighton should have scored 3 or 4 against us, it wasn't good defending from us to only concede 1 away from home, it was luck that they couldn't finish. We offered little going forward that game.Monkeybubbles wrote:
The stats are pretty meaningless after only 3 games though. City seemingly create chances at will, whoever they play. Then two games away from home against teams who play attacking football. It creates a skewed data set.
Yesterday we were superb going forward and we took our chances, but again could have conceded 2 or 3 easily.
Week 1 - City had the highest xG at 3.18
Week 2 - Brighton had 2nd highest xG behind City 2.4
Week 3 - Watford had 3rd highest xG behind us and Liverpool 2.29.
We've got to improve defensively or change the system against the better teams away. Those numbers are too high.
