Kerryfail Meltdown - Yes, they are nutjobs!

Celtic's group was the highest scoring, that's why their xg was so high. Rubbish defences. There was on other high scoring group and the rest had at least 12-20 less goals scored because the team were more conservative.

Also don't forget that Betis and Leverkusen played their second strings against them.

I can understand why – he’s essentially said that they don’t have the squad depth to cope with the schedule and intensity of training/football he wants to play but is refusing to change it, despite admitting it’s putting undue stress on the players.

An insane admission from a coach in this day and age, but very little will be said.

Poor James absolutely deluded , his latest blog blames the Scottish football authorities for the injury crisis at sellick . Nothing to do with their sport science and conditioning staff lacking in numbers , their first team still doesn't have a full time doctor.

None of that matters the scheduling of the league cup fixtures are the reason why they're dropping like flies .

Sutton said the Betis boy might fall going up the tunnel…….I mean where do you start with that, Their number 8 should be advertising beds he spends that much time on his back……do they just say things without thinking or are they really that inbred they are devoid of a sense of irony

The press may call it a dead rubber but we went out with nine points in a Group Of Death whereas their favourite side went through from a Group Of Dreck with a mere eight.

And there it is:))

They are absolutely obsessed with trying to push this shite just now.

I’m sure the rest of Europe will stand up and take note of their brave defeats and us being pyoor jammy with qualification from our group.

I’d piss myself if we got Sheriff in the draw. The reaction from these mentalists would be sensational.

a Group of Death is 4 incredibly good teams making the outcome unpredictable

Leverkusen have waned from when we played them with Havertz etc
Betis is mid-table Spanish fodder
Ferencvaros are slightly better Jablonec standards

i 100% agree with the stance about the appointment. This guy shouldn’t even be considered for the job, especially given the fans unanimously do not want him here.

However, the silent protest significantly impacts the team in the park. The noise is like an extra man for them, driving them to get wins. Protest with banners, before and after the match, financially find ways to hit them, but we need to avoid impacting results.

I really hope they don’t carry this into the weekend

What a truly abysmal support they must have if only a 1000 or so green brigade degenerates not singing impacts results on the pitch.

Exactly. 4 teams that can take points of each other. They had one team that everyone took 6 points from and they got 3 points in the final game where both put out their fringe players.

Let them keep papering over the cracks though, it makes the timplosion all the better to watch.

What is xG mate? I haven’t a clue!!

A fantasists way of pretending they are in fact superior.

And if you wanted a real answer: expected goals. I.e. chances are assigned a value out of 1 on how likely it is to be scored. And then each teams expected goals total is added up to provide a mythical outcome for a game.

xG is a subjective measure, masquerading as being objective, of how good the quality of chances a team created throughout a game.

It doesn't take into account if its Lewandowski or Ajeti on the end of it.

Yeah and our “poor group” had the highest ranked team in the tournament, the team that scudded the Tims 4-1 home and away last year and the team that finished above Midtjylland who knocked them out the CL qualifiers.

The speccy twat knows absolutely fuuck all about football. He should stick to what he knows i.e computer games. The sad bastard spent his entire youth stuck in his bedroom playing with his joystick.

"Group of death" that had 1 decent team, the worst team in the comp and arguably the 2nd worst. Also the team with the worst defensive record.

Group of dearth more like

Can picture timbo standing in his local Greg’s looking at the menu and quite fancing to try a “croissant” but has no idea how to say it. “Just gies us a stake bake, hen”

Confession - was a bit pissed after our game and went to bet Betis to win by 2 goals. I read the betting wrong and somehow ended up with a tenner on Celtic -1 at 6-1. In injury time they had a 3 on 1 (the 1 being the goalie!) and somehow ‘Mikey’ Johnstone fucked it up. The only time in my life I've wanted that lot to score. He’s genuinely one of the worst players I’ve ever seen - makes Glenn Middleton look like Raheem Sterling.

Hmmmmm. As usual the Tim's logic is flawed.

If Celtic are so brilliant then they should be able to handle the Group of Death. They couldn't.

If Rangers are so poor then they should have struggled to even handle the Group of Dreck. We didn't.

I love seeing them trying to explain why they are out and we are through while also trying to maintain the basic premise that they are brilliant and we are rubbish. Oh and also running down the Europa League as a competition before dropping down into the Conference.

It's like being turfed out of a nightclub into the gutters knowing your only remaining pleasure for the evening is going to come from Pornhub and all the while you are screaming "I hate your rubbish nightclub anyway, the beer is overpriced and the birds are all a bunch of fake gold digging whores!" Maybe one of the hambeasts at the taxi rank will glance your way, Timmy. We've got a date with something a bit more classy.

A group of death usually has 3 very good teams.

This group had Ferencvaros and Celtic ffs!

Midtjylland finished 3rd with 9 points, in a group with Red Star, Braga and Ludogorets - is that a GoD too?
 
I'm all for good statistical analysis within football and other sports, but my word, where are they going with this Xg stuff? Does it imply that the winner of the X-league should be awarded the title instead of the actual winners? Given the debacle of the 75% title they were awarded in 2020, I wouldn’t be surprised. I hope sincerely that this will not be permitted and I'm sure it won't.
