It feels like they don't. I obviously know they are forensically trawling all the games to find anything to use (xG) to promote their business. My point was that xG is digested in a way to suggest that we aren't in a perilous situation. And too much data these days represents ulterior purposes...
Leicester may have been agonising for some but we didn't play well. If anything, it was the result we deserved.
Palace away and Liverpool at home were more agonising results IMO. Although draws we were by far the better team. We've had too many like that which make it so sour. The poor...
I think xG is the curveball. It seems to be a stat peddled by the bookies to entice gambling and can't go back on it now. The stats suggest we will be fine but it does seem the majority of journalists and betting companies don't actually watch many games.

Fulham in the worst position to avoid, but have to consider the direction of travel.
Unfortunately the manner of our defeats adds insult to injury. Real sleepless nights and confidence draining stuff for the penalty takers, defence and now poor old Sanchez.
If we avoid the drop I will be...

So much back and forth. Some total codswhollop excuse about "blowing the whistle to signal to STOP play before the fk was taken" and eventually settling on "the 2nd whistle was DEFINATELY blown before the ball crossed the...
Good manager, a lot of good players. We've probably been the worse team in a game on a handful of occasions this season. Some really bad luck, really bad decisions (freekick today needs investigating and Mason needs dropping. PGMOL trying to patch it up, but it was in before the 2nd whistle so...
His style doesn’t bother me. I’m actually a fan of long ball. Underrated.
However it does baffle me how the FA shortlisted him, never mind gave him the England job considering the direction of travel for the national set up.
