Episode notes
Spurs' Results Outperform Their Numbers
- Tottenham's good table position masks poor underlying metrics like expected goals and expected points.
- Regression to those underlying numbers could make their strong start unsustainable.
Chance Creation Is Tottenham's Core Weakness
- Tottenham lack reliable chance-creation after losing key creators and suffering injuries.
- New signings like Javi Simons need adjustment time before they fill that creative void.
Be Patient And Watch The Underlying Metrics
- Give Frank and new players time to build cohesion before judging season outcomes.
- Track underlying metrics alongside results to spot early regression risks.
