    Surely this then says that the Defence wasn`t ****? - because we stopped them from creating clear cut chances.

    I like the new expected goals metric that they've introduced. You can see them quoted on MotD too.

    It would be interesting to see where we would have finished in the table last season based on the expected goals metric.

    However, I don't think its necessarily correct to say its 'unfair' that we lost. It could be that we were just unlucky, but it could also be down to:
    1. Poor finishing from us
    2. Good finishing from Ipswich
    3. Poor goalkeeping from us
    4. Good goalkeeping from Ipswich

    What it does say is that our defence played well as based on the chances they created, you would have only expected them to score 0.52 goals. That seems pretty accurate as both of their goals were really good finishes that on another day might have been saved/gone wide.

    Or should have been blocked by defenders anyway. First goal player not marked in the box. 2nd was allowed to shoot unchallenged from edge of box. Bad defending

    Exactly.

    You can dress stats up how you like but only one actually matters; THE SCORE

    I think it takes into account the pressure from defenders.

    But 'the spreadsheet' isn't just based on goals scored and that's been pretty successful.
