I really wish it had been named CQ (chance quality) rather than XG. I've talked to several (usually older fans) who dislike XG and a large part of it seems to be the name "expected goals". Many are sadly unable to get past the implication that goals are in anyway expected.
ОтветитьXg* Pg (for a particular striker) = real Xg
ОтветитьAn imaginary stat 📊
ОтветитьPerfect exlpenation. Thanks so much
Ответитьand what a useless factor
ОтветитьI have a question. Can someone help? Let’s say Messi scores 10 Goals but has a xG of 5. Does it mean he was lucky? Does it mean hes really good because he scores against the odds? Or let’s say his xG is 15. Is he unlucky in that case? But a higher xG would be good because even though someone is underperforming it means that over time it is expected for him to score more often or not? So what exactly is good or bad regarding xG?
ОтветитьWow I actually understood that malarkey. Well done
Ответитьif Xg is a number between 0 and 1 how can a team get an Xg of over 1
ОтветитьAfter Romelo Lukaku's poor performance in the world cup, I'm sure he's now an amateur striker.😭
ОтветитьBack when Lukaku was considered an elite striker
ОтветитьYour model is useless, if it cannot predict anything or contribute to that. Any model, any statistic, any figure.
xG is an offensive metric. So a corresponding defensive one would be needed on top of that.
So if I understand correctly then higher xg mean you have good midfield and playmaker and if you score more goals then your xg it mean you strikers did great job
ОтветитьSo boring.
ОтветитьNever forget Alex Stewart
Ответитьback in the time when Lukaku and Sanchez scored more than expected :D
ОтветитьFascinating and clearly explained. Interesting that a player who was just good at getting in good positions and scoring a lot of close range goals perhaps wouldn’t have their ability reflected in goals to xG ratio?
ОтветитьThank you for this explanation! I've always known what it meant. What I didn't get was the actual number used. You've cleared that up.
ОтветитьSo an xG of 1.0 doesn't exist and then Liverpool had an xG of 2.3? I am confused...
ОтветитьxG ìs not a real thing. Hope this helps.
ОтветитьWait, if an xG of 1 is impossible, how did Liverpool had 2.31??
ОтветитьThere is an error - xG is the probability of the goal, and not the likelihood of the goal. It's the likelihood of the shot.
P(Goal | Shot) = L(Shot | Goal)
FIFA 22 brought me here
ОтветитьConfused by chrismd story so am here
ОтветитьWell if you watched Football u understand who is better player or which player is better so this is just a useless stat made just so stats guy look smart absolutely useless
ОтветитьAbsolutely outstanding video.
ОтветитьCan anyone please help me understand how is xG(probability) greater than 1 for the Liverpool vs Swansea example ?
( how can the probability of any event be greater 100% ?)
Sheffield United's xG this season (12.03) is higher than Southampton's (10.93)
Sheffield United have scored 4 compared to Southampton's 19
It’s none of the things above.
It’s just another bit of effort to convince American Networks that the game just make sense for American public just like VAR (Americanized) and make pundits look like they know what they’re talking about.
Be ready for 4 quarter games, Time outs, challenges by the managers, repeated plays prior to a foul and most importantly a non-continuous game clock so that commercials can be inserted.
The big clubs, the networks and FIFA are slowly killing the simplest and the most beautiful game in the world just to sell their product to the US market (and don’t get me wrong, American public is just bystanders here)
FM21 players. Hello.
ОтветитьWho came here after FM21 added xG?
ОтветитьIf xG is a probability or "chance quality" then why are the quoted numbers greater than 1?
ОтветитьI thought I was going to miss Joe's voice,..Alex's explanation overwhelmed any tonal need
Ответитьthis is soccer not football
ОтветитьDo penalties get accounted for in this xG?
ОтветитьWhat about the goalkeeper? If XG does not account for the goalkeeper then it is misleading. If the keeper is Courrtois, the XG will be higher.
Ответитьgoals per chance?
ОтветитьTherefore if the goals and xG doesn't match up, you can say the keeper did better than expected or the strikers did worse than expected, right?
ОтветитьIt has really helped my fantasy football because I do not pay heed to it, and others take it as gospel. I look at body lanaguage and the manner in which that person hits the ball when they have a shot. Xg does not tell you that!
Ответитьyou should picture of messi and then talked about lukaku . lol.
ОтветитьExpected goal analysis is probably the worst model to analyse a player/team.
ОтветитьI find it very useful regarding predicting matches. I quite don't get why it shouldn't be. Especially if you look closely on the xG's without penalties and own goals and the difference in home or away performances.
ОтветитьBut I always see people say that player x is better than player y because he has a better expected goals i hope i get an explanation
ОтветитьFootball for dummies ! The best football channel for me!
ОтветитьIts because xg = bollocks
ОтветитьGreat simple and informative video on XG, as well as the things it does and does not do.
Ответитьits pretty similar to shot conversion rate stat, both show how efficiant/inefficient a player is, or if you take the stat for all players of team, how efficiant/ inefficient a team is
ОтветитьIts definitely interesting. I can imagine clubs already plot xG in a normal distribution plot when looking at players. Harry Kane to the very right of the bell curve in the premier league - for example.
I recently plotted possession vs. xG against non top 6 teams for Liverpool as from the eye it looks they struggle breaking down buses. The plot confirmed the theory nicely.
who's winning the world cup
ОтветитьFinally I understand xg. Thanks pal!
