[Albion] Time for Sanchez

[SEWDONIM]

That will be overinflated due to the missed penalty but still good numbers.

I'm pretty certain penalties are stripped out of expected goals scored and conceded.

Yeh, penalty counts for 0.75 of that. Although I reckon that the psychological effect of having a big keeper filling the goal in front of you shouldn't be underestimated.

No, they count for . 76 xg.

Fair enough, I always thought they were sapped out of it.

Definitely. I haven’t seen it back, but Sanchez did do a shimmy. Even if puts off Sterling 1% it’s got to help.

 

[Billy the Fish]

Definitely much more confident with him in goal. We no longer concede from every shot on target!

Sometimes when doing analysis of a player or team over a period, the data used will be 'non-penalty' xg but for matches the xg always includes penalties.

I don’t think it’s like that. There’s not a place for Matty.

If you’re going to put faith in a young goalkeeper why would you have the experienced former number one looking over his shoulder every game.

In case he gets injured and you want to give yourself the best chance of winning a football match

The Ice Man. So cool, calm and confident. Love the guy and great seeing his loyalty rewarded. Coming over here at a young age from Spain can’t have been easy.

Love the way he claims so much out of the air.

This.

Credit to Potter for throwing the lad in too.

That still won't stop some people moaning about needing to splash out £20M on a 'PL experienced GK'.

 

[Weststander]

He’s been an improvement on MR from day one imho. I really rate him.

If his form continues, this will save the club resources to spend elsewhere on a CF and LB.

 

[mwrpoole]

Getting better each match and importantly defenders seem to trust him.

It's can't be said enough how much coming and claiming a corner or free kick changes the flow of a game. Pressure can build and build and its taken away in an instant.

Yep, I’m trying to remember the last keeper we had who came and claimed a lot, Brezovan was quite good but never consistent enough, we’ve had a lot of keepers over the years who haven’t really been the come out and claim type.

[emoji123] Sanchez. And a clean sheet for the big man.

And how assuring he is when launches for a cross? What a talent.

 

[banjo]

Taken his chance with both hands.

 

[doogie004]

Big relief how he commands the box and takes the pressure off

He looks like a better keeper than Ryan by some way now.

He's got some kick on him too.

This, it just gives the defence much more confidence with him behind them

Big fan of Sanchez.

He's my second choice keeper in FPL. Sitting on the bench with a clean sheet and a bonus point incoming. Goddamnit!
