It's excellent (Tranmere are my local team too), I like that I don't need any further context than to see the Tranmere keeper was in the opposition box when the equaliser went in.

Stunning goals from open play, Stokenal could never.

Any Prem team has a group of analysts shaking their heads because those chances only have a 0.02 xG and the smart move is to pass it and recycle possession. We cannot let the wokes win.

The statistical analysis won't stop but the results will change. Once shooting from outside the box becomes totally unexpected then the chance of scoring from it becomes heightened as defenders usher you into those positions more and keepers aren't ready for them.

Just going through a period of adjustment at the moment not helped by the fact your average person is terrible at probability and most footballers are thick.
 
Much more encouraging from our pile of ****e yesterday ... two silly penalties but much better energy largely down to bringing in younger players like Mavididi, Okoli and McAteer ... also had 2 different academy lads on the bench, Evans and Oluko, and the former got his debut... with a minute left <doh>

Vardy was one of our least effective yesterday and 16 year old Evans has only been outscored by Ethan Nwaneri at Prem 2 level ... so why not give the kid a decent 25mins?...
