Maybe he just wants to win games for the club who currently employ him.

We won today and that’s the only stat I care about. We have won 9 out of the last 10 and that’s another stat I care about. Emery’s record in his 3 years is unbelievable. 17th in the prem when he took over - this is what I judge football ball on, not xG

Football is about results, always was and always will be. Seeing what Villa have done of late being devalued on xG basis just makes me laugh. No one even knew what xG was a few years ago and now everyone pretending they know about football love to bang on about it

Your whole argument here is premised on you thinking I think we’ll win the league. I don’t. My point was purely that you are putting so much value on stats like xG, when in reality the only stat that matters is results.

It’s social media buddy.

FBREF has xG data back to 2017-18. A team has never finished higher than 6th with a negative xG diff.

So they'd have to improve their underlying play over a streak where they've won, like 9 straight in the PL. That doesn't seem likely to happen.
