Statisitical breakdown of League 1 season - really worth some time 16:09 - Sep 8 with 617 views | itfcjoe | https://www.statsperform.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/11-2019-season-review-3. A couple of ITFC things I've picked out: Expected Goals for we were pretty decent - both in open play and set pieces - from open play our xG differed to Peterborough by 0.8 goals but they scored 22 more than us that's mad. Expected Goals against - pretty similar, but were didn't concede as many as we should have done from set pieces Pass build up - we were the 3rd slowest team in building with regards to how far forward passes progressed, and with a near exact com bo of short and long passes - shows no clear style bar being slow on the ball Pressing - bar Rotherham we were the most effective pressers in the league with 9.3 passes allowed per defensive action James Norwood - high up on Expected goals per 90 minutes with 0.71 per 90 minutes played, but shows he often shoots in 'low clarity' chances. 8 (non-penalty) goals from an xG of 11.9. But ho many chances he gets is a real positive. Alan Judge - in 10th place in the league for expected assists from open play and 7th out of all midfielders - again impressive and dspite a disappointing season can see why he stayed in the team as was the one creating chances even when we struggled as a team Kayden jackson - 3rd best expected assists for forwards in the league - his was actually slightly lower than Alan Judge but ended up with lots more assists so shows a fair bit of luck involved Tomas Holy - Just wsn't tested much - should've conceded 14.5 goals but actually conceded 16, so a negative for him. No stats for Norris Flynn Downes - 8th in the league for midfielders for initiating pasing sequnces by winning the ball back - most above him are genuine DMs rather than box to box |  |

Statisitical breakdown of League 1 season - really worth some time on 17:26 - Sep 8 with 492 views | J2BLUE | I like these stats, thanks for posting. I think we need to look at stats more to understand some of the decisions Lambert makes. I held out defence mostly responsible for last season until hearing you on the podcast and realising the stats just don't support that view. |  |
