Stadt Posted 13 May 2019 Posted 13 May 2019 23 minutes ago, Beechey said: Do corners and free kick goals not count then? No but anytime one of our players stretches to reach a corner and heads it miles wide it counts as a goal scoring chance when in reality it definitely isn’t. His expected assists stat is 7.94, which shows that he created a lot of low quality chances.

Nope and neither do penalties It's an impressive stat albeit flawed. If crossing the ball into the box constitutes a goal scoring opportunity then to me it degrades the stat. You don't need to be creative to cross a ball. His involvement in 14 goals this season (7 goals & 7 assists) are the stats that matter to me. A very good return in my opinion.

filbertway Posted 13 May 2019 Posted 13 May 2019 Expected assists is a much better gauge, at least it takes into account context. Chipping one to the back post that big harry loops goalwards isn't going to get too many goals.

Albrighton can be highly frustrating with his no look passes/crosses which end up going nowhere near anybody. Maddison is very dangerous from set plays. He dithers sometimes, less so Since Rodgers has arrived but he has good passing ability. Both good players, Albrightons style is effective for a winger but isnt near Maddisons technical ability. In my opinion ... I really did not think the original poster was comparing the two! What he was saying was that Albrighton was a good example to copy in terms of decision making, releasing the the ball when the opportunity arises and not take a touch meaning Vardy has to check and get back onside. Different positions...... different people.

KingsX Posted 13 May 2019 Posted 13 May 2019 There's a lot of confusion about "Chances Created" I think a pass to a DM anywhere in the final third is a goalscoring chance. ... just ask Ndidi.
volpeazzurro Posted 5 July 2019 Posted 5 July 2019 If anyone needed a decent agent it's this boy. From things you hear personally and genuinely first and second hand to these sort of posts, as talented as he may be, he comes across as an utter twat. Get a grip son!
FoyleFox Posted 5 July 2019 Posted 5 July 2019 I'm not sure he needs a new agent but he certainly needs someone else to buy his clothes.
Aus Fox Posted 6 July 2019 Posted 6 July 2019 All the money in the world can’t buy style! Love the bloke on the pitch and the way he goes about his business, but fook me that’s horrific! Please let it come out he’s lost a bet here
