Hello from S Wales. Surprised to see Drinan starting - maybe Richie's still unwell and not thinking straight. Hope he thinks straight at some point.

I thought the same, I wonder if this is more a message to Piggot than it is an endorsement of Drinan.

We`re playing well (apart from Brynn`s kicking).

The ball never breaks for us in those little

Sotiriou has miscontrolled or given away possession ten times in the first 20 minutes...nailed on to score.

Agree. Also a word for the Ref. Excellent so far.

Anyone know how 'Expected Goals (xG)' works ?

Have Bristol worked out we have zero goal threat yet?

Sorry, I think its an awful game. Neither side seem capable of doing anything special.

Something about historical data informing how likely a player should be to score from their shooting position. Unsurprisingly, our actual goals scored is way lower than our xG.

We're very left sided in Attack.
Drinan all on his own on the right
Isn't helping

We've gone back to a 4-3-3 but Theo and Drinan playing as more traditional wide men, not cutting in. All still feels a bit laboured in the build up, we've once again looked pleasantly inoffensive.
Ruel has been awful as a ten.

Both teams are crying out for a player who can make a decent through ball or cross.

Because Ruel isnt a 10. must have posted that more than ive even posted how Drinan is useless.
Ruel is a 9, he scores goals as a 9, but is hopeless as a 10
I wish RW would realise this
the gezza has lost it
