as in

"should have scored 6" - if Salah were our CF? Or in that case, "should have scored 10" because he's very good? Or is an averagely good Prem CF? Or is it "should have scored 6" if we'd done as well as we ourselves might have expected to do, with our players?

Or is it all just mind bogglingly complicated? Stick it in the f**king net son, do the maths later?
