    Yep get rid of stats, they are misleading.
    But not goals scored that’s actually important.
    Oh ok, and assists because you can’t score without an assist.
    Yes yes, chances created tells you something important
    Key passes? Ok if it leads to a chance I guess
    What about defenders? Um, tackles and interceptions then
    Well I suppose some midfielders do work hard and run further
    ..


    ..

    ...

    ..

    So xG is distance run over chances created multiplied by the square root of the the refs average whistle tweet length. Yep that sounds good.

    What should I do with my money when I can't go anywhere or do anything? Dabble in Bitcoin? Take a punt on Etoro? Whack it on a virtual roulette table? Nah, I'll order a customised SFC Telecaster. She's nearing completion now and I cannot wait to take delivery. FB_IMG_1614631422702.jpg

    Fair play making his own. My personal level of woodworking skill would see me struggling to assemble a pile of firewood! Do share a picture if he'll let you.

    A Saints banjo would be more appropriate, still couldn't hit a barn door with it.

    Oriol Romeu is not the only saints player to have undergone surgery this week: Callum Slattery had an operation on an ankle ligament injury.
    Operation went well apparently.

    In slightly related news, Juventus have just taken up their buy option for Weston McKennie who they had on loan from Schalke and who we were interested in last summer.

    The trouble with that Weston fella is his clear lack of ambition.

    Dodged a bullet with that one.

    Been saying it all season and the results back it up, we should have someone who can come in and do a similar job when he is injured not temporary fill ins. The same with Bertie too.
