It’s all very well being top of XG but no good if you can’t hit a barn door.

Precisely. There is no column in the table for xG.

You cannot paint a turd.

But you can flush it.

But you can put a PR spin on it.

I’d be interesting to see he footage that goes with these stats. I imagine Erling races clear & knocks it past the keeper into the net & Nunez chases the ball trying to get it under control before smashing it out for a throw.

Meanwhile Antony is still going round in circles........ before putting the ball out.

Exactly. I think I prefer Actual Goals.

& his options have been closed down with every slow rotation.

I blame it on the Rags spin doctors.

Slightly off topic but I caught the last ten or 15 minutes of United v Surs the other week and was just in time to hear the co-commentator (Savage, I think?) inform the wold that... "He [Rashford] doesn't know his own speed. He wouldn't have been expecting to get onto the end of that through ball, surprised himself when he did and couldn't control it...".

Pure poetry, that. Emotional stuff, I'm sure you'll agree. Certainly, there wasn't a dry seat in my house.

The thought of you all weeing on your armchairs has put me off my poached eggs on toast.
Savage is a wordsmith .

I really couldn't give a toss if the press/media think Nunez is better than Haaland.

A centre forwards roll is to score goals simple.
