I just don't think it sits with the way the rest of the game works. I want entertainment. games are often shit. even non-tournament games. the three points for a win rule was welcome. bonus points for shit finishing seems wrong, though. |

Not sure how running a simulation relates in anyway to what I'm suggesting, which is: Attack. Attack. Attack attack attack. |

One problem I'd have with xG or similar as a metric for solving a deadlock is that it's only doable in big commercial league football or international football - and then only in rich countries. where the technology capacity allows for it. It makes the game a different game at different levels. Also one reason I was hesitant about VAR.

Cant decide a game on stats.
Team A has 3 shots on target, all good football, clear chances created, shots from 8-15 yards from goal, 3 good saves Team B has 6 shots on target, closest one from 25 yards, most of them daisy cutters that barely reached the goal The stats would send team B through, but that wouldn't be a fair reflection. And where would you put blocked shots, because they dont count as on target in the stats. |

Similarly, we would never have seen DDG 'dossier' on Villareals penalty takers and where to dive for them, and him absolutely going the wrong way for most of them, despite him having it written down where they're going. Best one was "down the middle" - DDG dives to his left, pelanty goes down the middle. Incredible |

This debate has been ongoing for donkey's years. Penalties is the best solution. Run-ups is maybe the next best thing, but is fraught with difficulties, such as fouls etc. Golden goal never caught on due to even more boring extra time. As for totting up shots on target etc, that's %@#$&!s.
Penalties is definitive. Black or white. Leave it be. |

Think it was invented by bookies to annoy / get more cash out of you. The "goal" is the target the goal is made by three posts traditionally made of wood... |
