Pro futi tip: you can long press on a lot of stats in the app for pop-up definitions and links to longer explainers.

Hey @futi.live, what is “deserved win” calculated on? Is it just xG or does it also include a bit of possession and/or field tilt? Something else? Cc: @johnspacemuller.com

Replying to @jasondcsoccer.bsky.social

There is not much else to report on here, as these teams are putting together a very uncharacteristically cagey first half-hour. @futi.live showing a whopping combined xG of 0.20.

✅ Needs to work on his ball winning if he wants to make it though.

FULL TIME! Sounders looked a ton better in the second half, but they are forced to settle for a 1-1 tie. Those are big dropped points and that putrid first half is to blame. They did generate 17 shots in the second half, though. Stats via @futi.live

Boos ring out, deservedly. That was putrid. Sounders lucky to be down 1-0 to one of the worst teams in the league playing their third game of the week after flying across the continent. Halftime subs needed. @futi.live rated them as 4% deserving winners…

Aston Villa and Man City will step up to catch a runner offside while other defenses will drop off against the same kind of pass Thought it was super interesting that Arsenal play elite defense high up the pitch without using an offside trap nearly as much as you'd expect

Got curious about Haaland's ability to stay onside so I took @futi.live data, built an xOffside model, figured out which pass types and phases of play matter, ranked the best offside traps and onside attackers in the PL, translated it to goals and dollars and wrote it up in ESPN No you need a hobby

espn.comWhy does Haaland score so many goals? Because he's elite at staying onsideWe know what a dominant scorer Erling Haaland is, but it often goes unnoticed how good he is at avoiding a striker's worst enemy: the offside trap.

Would love to see someone try to put an expected goal value on Haaland's supernatural ability to stay onside

Fulltime, Dallas wins 1-0. Sounders unbeaten streak ends at 9. They were probably due for one like this where they deserved a better result. Fifth now probably the best they can do. Stats via @futi.live.

Using @futi.live graphics to try to illustrate how Wilfried Nancy rewrote the MLS meta. Changed it from a deep-lying, long-ball league into the build-from-the-back, possession-dominant league we've got now. Most influential coach in league history.

You’re welcome, America.

I do appreciate Pochettino basing his whole USMNT squad on @futi.live ratings for American U21s

NEW: We're verging on a mass debut event for the USMNT, with 13 uncapped players in camp. Cavan Sullivan is far from the only reason for excitement about the next generation. A guide to the "other" newcomers – with data from @futi.live – for @us.theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Ryan doesn't mention it here, which is fair because it's four games against Curacao or whatever, but the only two people to drop a 99 overall futi rating at the World Cup were Lionel Messi and Florian Wirtz The guy can still play soccer I think

This really is a gem, wonderfully informative and easy to access

John Muller@johnspacemuller.com

Genuinely believe @futi.live's new advanced stats with tactical context are the deepest that fans have ever had access to Non-shot dangerous attacks, xG in set piece second phases, fast break dribbles, tactical fouls in transition — there's so much stuff here that we can measure for the first time

Sigh … ✅

Andre Luiz was tremendous for Sporting Kansas City last night. It's incredible to watch how quickly he turns a touch in the SKC half into a carry behind the opposing defense. Luiz is a star. Might be worth the wait for SKC fans if the eventual other DPs are close to as good 🇧🇷

Villa got a result against Spurs but the performance wasn't great. Feels harder to get out of our half. Understandable with our back 6 without Pau or Maatsen, reliant on Suzuki's long passes. Starting Harwood-Belis & adding wide options like Mbaye or Garnacho would help a lot.
