The Official Arsenal Thread - Part 2

[marco 2005]

December, when Arsenal hit rock bottom and lost to 2 shite teams like Everton and United

Did you not read the rest of it?

You can't write off terrible performances against the big boys and just expect results and/or performances against the rest to remain elite. That's basically the jist of the article. We know they got hammered in a few games, that's not up for debate, it's what it means for future outlook is the point.

Just crunching my EPL numbers here, I know ye've probably been waiting all day...

Can confirm that Arsenal are now below Leeds in non-penalty xG against, only Norwich and Watford are worse for this season.

At least the actual versus expected figures have closed up a bit but there's absolutely no getting away from being so shite defensively.

Long live Mikel.

I tried to explain to ExcelFeen back then that his stats meant fuck all and that I expected Arsenal to actually improve further and that the Jan-March period should yield much better results and performances than the previous season

Eye + some data > Just stats

M8, if analytics mean nothing you should inform the bumnal board. They can let those employees go and give laca 300,000 a week instead.

I said ‘just stats’ m8

You can’t just solely understand/read a game through a spreadsheet

They’re a good tool but need to complement what you see with your eyes

Bit too nuanced for a fellah that struggles to tell the past from the present

M8, you called the GOAT a stat paddler.

I'd log off for the day and think about that if I were you

This thread is like an episode of The Twilight Zone.

Bumnal lads are giddy and yerrahing simultaneously.
Bumnal, 4th in the table and routinely hammered by good teams (and Mickey Carrick) are now a top team.
Marco is learning how to speak Lee, but thinks the whole field of analytics is a pseudoscience because he has eyes.

And Ronaldo paddles canoes for living.

Did I miss anything?
