Let it go… xG isn’t perfect and some people over-emphasise it or use it out of context

but that doesn’t make it useless.

Like most metrics xG doesn’t predict outcomes. Used alongside other data, it helps show performance trends and areas for improvement that raw league position can’t.

Clubs use it to diagnose issues and track whether changes are actually working not to place bets.
