    Don't know. Don't care.

    If you're going to jump in and make a definitive assertion you need to then be able to explain what you mean and back up your statement. Can you do that?

    You said that not all chances involve touches. You couldn't be more wrong in this instance. If you make that assertion that means your definition of a chance is different to Opta. You've just said you've already backed up your assertion or defined what you meant. I must have missed that. Can you spell it out for me again?

    Iota is wrong pal. Somehow they had Salah down for three goals too.

    that’s the question I’m waiting for tobes to answer but he’s doing his usual tobes thing of not actually answering the question.

    do wonder if the guy is a politician the way he avoids answering specific questions.

    Woukdnt call devours a sitting midfielder. Unless he’s gonna play that way for you but for Watford he was very much box to box.

    All i said was chances created don't always involve a touch which anybody that knows/watches football will know is a fact.
    Then some chump jumps in asking if i know how Opta base chances to which i openly stated NO (i never mentioned Opta), i then went on to ask where Opta got the extra chances from but the same guy doesn't seem to know <laugh>

    Any chance the touch reel didn't actually show all the touches?

    well as you are an avid watcher/commentator on Everton you will see he was sitting at the WE and Gomes playing further forward. That meaning Rodriguez wasn’t needed to track back as Allan and devours covered.

    possibly. I only rewatched as my memory of The game was that the guy showed some decent touches but had very little actual impact as didn’t remember him doing an awful lot. Tobes then said he created 5 chances so I searched for a touch reel and re watched and could only find one.

    Like I said I’m happy to be proven wrong but someone that watched the game because even though I did, I clewrly wasn’t paying attention so if he did create 4 more chances then fair enough. He must have had a better game than I remember.
