Kylian always is great in big games. BTW. He seriously played as CF as most sources say? That would be funny considering PSG bought 2 expensive CFs before the season (Kolo Muani & G. Ramos).

Ferran didn't look bad at all when Xavi let him play. He has as many goals as Lewa (without penalties), and he played 2x fewer minutes and had 3x fewer chances (xg).

Do you really think Barca would be playing matches in 10 men if Lewandowski wasn't at the club? Someone would have played for him and it is not at all out of the question that he would be more effective. Ferran should get a lot more minutes. I hope with the arrival of Roque there will be finally...

Of course 16-20 clubs, salary cap + draft would make SL extremely attractive. But is this feasible? It would be necessary to circumvent EU law and invest huge money. Rivals will not give up stars so easily. Look what Saudi Arabia is doing. There clubs don't count their expenditure at all. The...

Great Dynamo example. Milan wouldn't bought Sheva for huge money (at the time) if he hadn't proved his class in matches against the best. What are last decade biggest surprises in the CL? Ajax, Monaco. Sorry, but these clubs are from leagues 5 & 6 in UEFA ranking. Much richer than Crvena Zvezda...

That the UK government wants to block the super league is not at all surprising. They are uncomfortable with changing the current financial order because they are crushing other leagues. But Atletico's decision strange.

Another Kane goal. The race for the championship promises to be interesting. Will Lverkusen be able to play at this level second half of the season?

Yeah, he had a very good start. I promised myself a lot from this transfer. After half the season I got an answer why he dint do well at Atletico and Chelsea. Good player will find himself anywhere and any system.

If you don't score against Almeira in a home game, when is he supposed to break through? Last season vs 2 bottom teams he scored 6 goals. It's not only matches, reportedly Lewa looks very bad even on training. Age has knocked him out.

Is this really happening? One of the 4 worst teams ever at this stage of the LL...

On what basis do you think Lewa has better finishing? Looking at the stats goals per game? These statistics depend very much on the class of the team in which you play. It is simple - if you have 10 lottery tickets you have a better chance of winning than if you have one. Kane is a machine, last...

I was seriously curious what you were trying to calculate using the number of games. If you wanted to count expected Lewa's goals/assists in 4 years you can do it in simple way: 54 / 1.5 x 4. Unfortunately this calculation does not include that his goals/assists per game is worse every month. He...

For me weird is what you wrote about the number of games. I seriously don't understand it, explain if you can. Player cant earn goals/assists without played games but he earns a salary every month. There is total amount of money paid for them (fee + all contract years). The cost of Dembele's 1...

The number of played matches doesn't matter. Points gained in the Canadian classification is directly proportional to the number of played matches. As for the 2, yes the CF theoretically should have those numbers better cuz he is one and wingers 2. It would be optimal to check a few teams from...

Almeria next? Fantastic! Finally a rival on our level ;)

We can argue whether Lewandowski is the best or worst striker ever, it's always subjective opinions. Everyone pays attention to different things. I prefer a striker who scores the key goals in 3 out of 10 games rather than one who scores 5 goals in 1 game against an outsider and 0 in the next 9...

Suarez had worse stats at Barcelona at the start than Lewa for 1 reason - the effect of cannibalising goals. When you have Messi, Neymar and Suarez in the line-up, goal chances are split into 3. When there is one main gun he has all of these chances.

Agree that Lewa was the loudest name Barca have signed in recent times. However, the risk of this transfer due to his age was very high (his resale value = 0). Bayern did a phenomenal deal by swapping a 34 year old striker with a one year contract for a 5 year younger one and paying "only" 50M...

Yesterday 3.2 vs 0.5 in xg and 5-0 in big chances. Lewandowski should have 6-7 goals in the last 3 games. It wasn't just him, Felix, Raphinia, Gundogan also had a multitude of chances. Barca are creating the most chances per game in LL this season, they are also the least effective. Barca 37.1...

Did you send those stats to Laporta a year ago? That would explain the 4-year Lewa's contract ;) 7 goals in 7 CL semifinals looks cosmic but 4 of them were in the BVB vs Real match, over a decade ago. The guy has scored 3 goals at this level in the last 10 seasons. How many times Lewa have been...
