    Yeah, but Everton only have an XG of 0.26, so there's that...

    I’m looking forward to us lumping balls to Awoniyi from about the 70 minute mark.

    So in real terms you could say we're winning?

    I am in no way supporting the use of XG in this conversation.

    Not when our xG is 0.11.

    It's 0.3, but it is not remotely helpful.

    A very odd game plan when everyone knows Everton are quite good at defending high balls. You’d have thought their former manager would have been aware.

    It’s all he’s got against a deep defence.

    Neco Williams is our best crosser of a ball by a country mile.

    Brighton get a 2nd penalty in 3 minutes.
    They miss it.

    Up to 23 crosses.
    I don't know if that includes the 2 corners, one of which didn't beat the 1st man and 1 of which went straight to the keeper.

    If we come out for the second half still doing this I'm going to be very cross with our manager. This is like watching someone playing FIFA for the first time who has only learned one button combination, so they keep spamming the same move repeatedly in the hope that it will somehow magically work.

    I think we’ve got on 2?
