By ' ordinarily ' I mean missing chances that , based on a large sample size of shots taken in those contexts , would ordinarily be converted . I don ' t give a shit about the sample size , when currently , in this moment of time , we are missing them , that ' s why goals expected is probably the dumbest thing to ever happen to football statistics . Hopefully , the ultimate goal is to turn performances into result , getting the full package , but that is absolutely not guaranteed . if we had only 1 shot from outside the box per game for a few games , but we had scored those shots , then we may have more goals or be in a better league position but it doesn ' t take a genius to see that those are poor chances and eventually you would expect us to stop scoring them and our results would drop off accordingly . If we won the league only scoring off of one shot a game , I wouldn ' t care . creating lots of chances will eventually turn into good results . Again , are you content into turning into Arsenal ? Performances results . but I think this attitude shows a very superficial view of how our team plays . It ' s football . It ' s results , that ' s quite literally , the only thing that matters in a game where the final outcome is to win . because I will know that results are assured even if current results don ' t reflect that . You don ' t know that , because even though we are playing well now , we could start to play like shit , and start to lose even more points . Entertain the idea for a minute , that we keep playing like we do , and we keep on not winning . It ' s without a doubt , a possibility . TLDR It ' s way too fucking early to make a statement on Mourinho . Why people are convinced not even a third of a way through a season is fucking ridiculous . I ' m reserving my judgment on him till the end of the season , period end of story .
