    As said, the league on its own, especially in Slot's first season, and I'd have been creaming it. The LC is more than welcome, and the CL would be the diamond on top of the cherry on top of the cake.

    That's often been Real Madrid's trademark in CL winning years tbf.

    Don't mock - XG goals seems to be based on far more dodgy maths than this. :emoticon-0138-think

    How I wrote it took up 50% less space both on the server and on the screen.

    Who is milk to dispute the opta supercomputer?

    It says 99.5% certain to win the league

    Who am I to contradict milk saying 70% likely to win league cup?

    Clearly we have therefore a 0.5%×30% chance 1.5% change of not winning a trophy

    But have a 69.65% chance of a double.

    You can work out what you like for a treble.

    Are you suggesting zero percent chance at winning the Champions league then? By your numbers we would be less than 1.5% chance of not winning a trophy because we have a greater than 0% chance of winning Champions League.

    Not saying I know better than opta... but 99.5% seems way too optimistic to me- Maybe 99.5% based on past events, but doesn't take into account uncertainties like multiple injuries, PGMOL revenge, space aliens invading etc.

    I have meticulously gathered all the available data and carefully calculated that we have a ****ing great chance of winning the league.

    OPTA only goes on historical data and doesn't have an opinion.
    That's why xG is meaningless. :bandit:

    Gakpo fit for tomorrow night, not fully match fit but gives us options. Just hope if Nunez gets on he behaves himself, can't afford a sending off

    I'm not interested in making up chances at the cl cos it's pointless at the last 16 point of the competition

    Nunez saw his arse again on Saturday and played better as a result. He always seems better when he has a nark on, but then he's one step away from being sent off.
    He's a gamble.

    That’s fair but in the same vain all those moaning about VAR and its inadequacies should not be allowed to celebrate a goal either

    Also anyone moaning about players abilities should not be allowed to celebrate a goal if they score or have a good match <laugh>:bandit:

    I'm not worried about Harvey Elliott ever having a good game.

    I've given my view of what he needs to do and it doesn't involve just back passing and it certainly doesn't involve pulling out of tackles as he does all the time.
