Gulf. Played twice this week, 12 shots, 1 goal. Not good enough.

This stat completely ignores the quality of the chances. If you use one stat as your metric then you go down a blind alley.

well we all saw the ones he missed today. Enough said. Stats just a vindication, shots on target being a beautiful metric because it was an easy enough chance for him to hit the target with, doesn't stop Sterling and Kun scoring them and if they're getting easier chances then why isn't Jesus getting into the same positions? Either way, not up to the level required in front of goal.

Sergio has missed plenty of chances this season, many easier than Gabby’s tonight. Every striker does. What are you even on?

I ended up arguing with a fellow blue on Matchday thread I gave my opinion on GJ first half show i honestly thought he was poor and didnt do anything of note I Of course realize that not everyone did agree and was called a TWAT I retaliated calling him a Dickhead which i know now was stupid and not CLEVER and apologize to all offended We all saw a much improved GJ after the break Finally we are extremely lucky having a great forum we all dont agree with whats said thats the idea surely but its not meant to lead to personal verbal attacks

as the stats prove, many fewer than Jesus. Hence why he's on double figures and Jesus is on Dave numbers. Odd that Sterling and Kun can finish a similar proportion of chances as each other and Jesus far less, yet when this fact gets pointed on people get uppity. Guess we've become a factually bereft society.

From open play in all comps (prior to today since the site isn’t updated yet) Jesus had an xG per 90 of .87 vs a return per 90 of .77 (11% underperformance). Sergio had an xG per 90 of 1.13 and returned .85 per 90 (24% underperformance). This will tighten up once today’s result is added obviously but maybe get your stats in order before bemoaning “society”.

Another dickhead with some weird axe to grind, sometimes it never fails to amaze me what people actually think about individual players.

My stats are fine, ta, and more indicative.

I know, they could just agree with me and we'd all be fine.
