Great read, Josh! Glad to finally be able to support your work

Having said that, apologizes that my first comment is to object to one of your points: over-performing xG is not a worrying indicator for a title-winning side.

For the past 5 years in PL, every title winning side over-performed their xG. The numbers for GF - xG (starting from last season going backward) are: 15.4, 10.3, 14.8, 16.1, 10.7 (fbref)

No one would say that Klopp or Guardiola just benefited from hot finishing every season. It just seems to be a characteristic of title-winning sides.

Josh maybe one for your next Q&A, I didn't see him show up in your 5 part series and I know he is ex Everton but I think Marco Silva is a very underrated manager and one we should be considering
