Football is a simple game, score more than the opposition. All the media trolled our performance but the fact was we missed some great chances and dominated the game. We have seen one sided games not end in a win. Man Utd 0-0 Burnley 38 shots to 7. Bayern 1-1 Chelsea 43 shots to 9. Man City 2-2 Spurs 30 shots to 3.

Maybe we just need to keep playing the way we are doing and hope Greenwood starts smashing them in like he can. In this team he could easily score 20+.

Explain how you dominated the game please.

Hafi you don’t deserve to win games if you don’t take your chances. I don’t think you understand how football works
----------------------------------------------------------------------
These tables aren't meaningless though. They're a measure of dominance in games and it is interesting how united rank highly in that (more so than Liverpool this season) and City always rank highest.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They are meaningless because Mourinho won lots of matches where his team's expected goals tally was worse than the opposition's
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How does that make them meaningless? they may not be perfect, but they show something.

They do show something

They show that anyone who tries to derive any sort of beneficial meaning from them should really take up a different sport.

Expected points, what we "deserve"

Load of bollox.

What you deserve is exactly what you get, nothing more, nothing less.

How did I miss this?

It’s just a shame the article only has 2.82 stars rather than the expected 4.87 stars.

It shows a reflection of dominance in games. I don't think that's completely worthless and I find it interesting.

Understat has to be Hafi's website.

Liverpool are so lucky. I would be shocked if this poor Liverpool side have a higher expected points than Man Utd this season. They are just fluking win after win.

Crazy thing is since our great run ended we have been playing better and not winning. We went from clinical to near the worst conversion team. The fact is I think only Man City and Liverpool have anywhere near the level of domination Man Utd had since Solskjaer taken over. Our bad form is nothing to do with tactics. Its all on the stupid players costing us easy wins. Everyone likes saying this is the worsrt Man Utd team but its one of our best for dominating in the PL era but worst efficiency at both ends.

I can see Emery parking the bus for 90 minutes and hope for 1 chance all game and knowing our luck that will go in against us. We will need to create about 20 chances to score. Its very clear Emery will park the bus and his side will come to do a smash and grab raid like Palace.

Also that article says we lack creativity when we created more chances than the opposition by far in nearly every league game since Solskjaer had in that bad run. The opposition create like 2-3 chances while we create like 12-15 but we can’t win.

I like Mata royalty. Shame Herrera left as we had a lot of players leave recently.

Still think you should be second?
