    Chelsea and Everton the “most improved” while both having a generally awful start to the season is a fun indication of how useful xG is.

    Except Everton have been pretty good and are easily the most underrated team in the leauge. I’d argue they were pretty unlucky and were shit aginst Luton which apparently is the only relevant game of the season for judging them on. If anything, their quality on the pitch compared with their xG is a lot more similar than when compared to how many points they’ve gained.

    xG is worthless for you because you couldn’t finish of a virgin who’d been edging for 8 hours.
