What a first half. Stream went down for the second half, but what a night.

I'm impressed. :clap:

I thought the 5th was the best, maybe the mods can sort a poll out?

Awesome 1st half took the foot off the gas 2nd half, but sloppy at times but still in control.

Some of the attacking football was brilliant, defensively sound (admittedly WBA didnt offer much) very good performance.

Clinical for a change and big up to Sawyers for possibly the best own goal i have seen in a long time.

How does that work anyway? If you score a worldie from 35 yards it's not an expected goal?

Depends where the shot is from etc

27% of shots on target are goals, it matters where you are when you strike the ball. Shots on target from outside the box are converted at a rate of about 13%, compared to 35% for shots inside the box on target.

They take the shot angle, distance, assist type, position its taken from.

None of our goals today were easy hence low xG.

Struijk needs to keep his place, even when Cooper is back. Think most of our clean sheets were with Struijk playing.
