They discuss quantity of shots per 90 versus xG per shot. Who takes lots of shots? Who takes easy shots? Which players just hit and hope?

#Firmino #Bebe - กีฬา
Tom Worville being trapped inside a scattergram yet RB Leipzig still managed to scout and sign him shows why they are leading Europe in talent identification
If only they could identify the talents of Ibrahim Sangare.
@@keh1396 tifo gotta hire him first for them to notice
Who has he recommended them go sign? Can Liverpool please sign them first!
This is the best comment
Ibrahim Sangare can only be signed once... One of the big clubs sign "Pressing machine" Konrad Laimer in that that's when Leipzig can begin talks with PSV i think that's where he is now
looks like tom worville finally escaped from the scattergram
I heard he’s in hiding in Germany
🚨🚨 Containment Breach! Containment Breach! Escaped Statistician! Contain... 🚨🚨
I think its a prequel episode..
This is the saddest sentence in the history of the world
😂😂😂😂😂👏🏼👏🏼
The new jingle is just as beautiful as the previous. Bravo JJ. Also a very strong debut from Mark.
Yeah great start from Mark, may he stay trapped in a scattergram for a long time
@@robertpethick1270 or get a real job like Tom did
I miss it ending with variables
Firmino is not just a playmaker he is a False 9 with impeccable teeth, highlights, and the glue that allowed Liverpool to win all their trophies.
No-look goals and iconic kung-fu kick celebrations go as bonuses.
Firmino continues to go from overrated to underrated like a lightswitch
At the moment he's having an underrated period next week who knows
Maybe if we take the average he's just rated
@@otto_jk Yeah, he's a normal player with an unusual role. Like Alexis
@@theportugueselegend I wouldn’t say he’s normal or an average player, his role isn’t easy to play. Grealish as talented as he is looked absolutely lost at false 9 when City played Liverpool, and Sterling isn’t great through the middle either.
@@mclovinjr9086 Well, Firmino is highly intelligent I'll give you that. But he doesn't proper in anything else. Just like Thomas Muller. For me City and Liverpool shouldn't be so easily compared. Different type of managers, different tactics and different approaches. Grealish is a pure creative midfielder or winger, never a false 9... Guardiola can't use him there. But he can use Gabriel Jesus though
Congrats to Tom, going to miss the old jingle. But this new tune is great too.
So essentially
Si Señor,
Pass the ball to Bobby and he'll score?
You know ball
*Pass the ball to Bobby and somebody on his team will score
jj bull suggested the work and presence of sadio mane and mo salah draws opposition away from middle and allows firmino to take hi quality shots
I appreciate the accuracy of the destination of Tom Worville's escape animation. Well done whoever made that decision
I can only assume that Joe had a soft jazz budget grand-fathered in with the Athletic deal
Joe does that for free.
Adding a z axis with (maybe np) goals per 90 would be interesting. It would give that poor lad more room to move about in. Another dimension in fact. Please do consider for stats and human rights reasons.
I adore the way Tifo mix smart analysis of football with absolute nonsense.
Imagine this is your first time watching tifo...no context for the deep lore that is the Tom Marvel saga
Good to see they've found someone who's actually happy about being trapped for all eternity in a graph.
Truly beautiful leaving song for Tom. Gonna miss you Worvman x
Congrats Tom for escaping the scattergram and re integrating into society so quickly and successfully.
Good luck to Mark and try not to show your fear as the stattergram can sense it and take advantage of you
My favourite Bobby Firmino story is the fact that he wasn't even rated by Brendan Rodgers before his signing. The transfer committee did, and the compromise was that if Rodgers agreed to take Firmino, he would get Benteke as well.
Rodgers then stuck Bobby on the wing with Jordon Ibe until he got fired, and the rest is history.
I was distraught when Tom left, purely because his theme song was my favourite, and I thought it was lost forever. When the new intro played I thought ah yes this is a fitting sendoff, and then the familiar refrain came in and I cried tears of joy
This kind of intros is why Tifo IRL is one of my favourite channels EVER!! Love you guys❤️
Never expected to get a Bebe analysis in this video but I'm here for it
Firminho is an amazing player, he'd get into any team in the world probably ;D
except for Brazil :(
Firmino. No -h- anywhere.
I liked tom worville. But good job in the escape
One of the first things I thought about during Tom’s farewell on the Football Tactics Podcast was what would become of the scattergrams?! Good to see the tradition of imprisoning The Athletic’s stats writers continues.
Congrats Tom and all the best for all challenges ahead!
🐐 introduction for any video man
I had to replay the intro twice. Pure magic
How did they make this intro better?
This is my first time watching one of the videos from this series and let me just say it's wild. Love the scattergram
I would love for this to be someone's first tifo video. The beginning would be so WTF
The eye test suggests this accurate, too. I'm thinking of the goals he's scored this season and they've been some of the easiest finishes of his career: the goal against norwich, the 3 tap-ins against Watford, and the two easy chances against Porto. He doesn't score difficult goals and very rarely takes difficult shots. He should've scored the chance against Brighton that Salah played him through for, too. He's always in good positions
Now I have to go watch the old vids for the song
Do you have a scattergram playlist? I really like them. If I could watch all of them in one place I would be very happy.
Man I love this channel
Beautiful new jingle
Congrats Tom!
I am loving this current upload schedule
Quite sad song... But very good! It made me cry.
At some point you must release a compilation of all the songs please... The Scattergram (pt I & II), Tifo Merch, etc
Mega deal song as well
This has serious "Lost: Untangled" vibes and I love it!
That intro was fire.
Nice vid, though I reckon those axes should've been swapped
Congratulations Tom worville that sounds fun working for a club with so much potential
Tifo lore is always the best lore
wtf the scattergram guy now work for RB leipzig what's next Joe and Seb playing dm for man united?!
Bruhh tifo is makes my day😂
We will miss you dearly Tom. The renewed intro song rescued my broken heart.
Ok the song is the laugh I needed this morning.
I came for the football and stayed for the emotion
Yo that tune is hard
Jonathan David, Muani all impressive as well
he is also the key to Liverpool's high press and super nice guy.
Need a bit of audio balancing between prerecorded Joe and the live audio. Great stuff as usual though!
The new jingle is still so good 😂
Scattergram for Christmas No.1
jj bull is one of the best presenters on youtube
Genius!
im glad firminho got the appreciation he deserves
Mohamed Bayo is easily my favourite young player. Started watching him last season in ligue 2, seems the perfect long term Antonio replacement for my beloved West Ham.
He is one of my favourite players
The intro was such an emotional rollercoaster. Fly free Tom Worville you beautiful beast, we all knew it wasnt for forever 😓
Wait, I just memorized the song!
Andy Delort: So good they listed him twice
Having a high xg per shot doesnt mean someone is clinical at finishing chances, it shows more good movement and decision making (not being wasteful with shooting decisions). Would be cool to see how someone like Firminho ranks in post-shot xG added (how likely the shot is to go in the goal in terms of its placemet minus the pre-shot xG)
Agreed, that's what it would show if the sample size was even worthy of discussion. His previous 4 seasons are all between 0.14 and 0.17 npxg/shot (very consistent numbers). The 0.33 statistic comes from his meagre 371 minutes played this season. Very poor video imo
@@stevennorman3900 the theme music in it self made this video 10/10
Good luck Tom for your endeavours! Love the new song
Me: sees Yoan Touzghar on the board *immediate flashbacks to me transforming him from a decent Ligue 2 winger to 15+ goal a season Ligue 1 striker on FM*
I want to believe that the main criteria for choosing who would be stuck in the scattergram was whether or not their name would work in the song!
Great 😑 now I have to learn to sing the new jingle
God speed Tom Worville, congratulations for escaping the scattergram
Tifo are getting scarily good at making jingles😭
going to miss Tom, but glad to see he made it out alive
We'll accept Mark (or warm up to him at the very least) like we did Tom when he first got trapped in the scattergram. Welcome Mark! 👍🏼
Can wait for the song when ten people escape 🤣
All firmino content is good content
Rip Tom Warvel 😭😭
Worville
More RiL, Rest in Leipzig
Actually his job is going to be harder..no time for rest
Make a video on the rise of crystal palace next pls
I want to know who writes these songs. They seem basic but brilliant
Joe has done music so maybe him, but you never know
Would you please consider normalising the volume between Joe's Athletic pitch in the beginning and the content afterwards? The amplitude in this particular video is quite startling.
Otherwise, great stuff as always! Love you, guys
You've made a stats video about a player that has 371 minutes this year and used that sample as the basis for explaining how Firmino only takes high value shots?
We could just look at previous seasons for a sample that isn't completely meaningless, and instead of 0.33, we see the previous 4 seasons were ALL between 0.14 and 0.17 npxG/shot.
Romain Saiss is second in the league btw. Saiss is not just a centre back?
I came to uMaxit for the football
Stayed at Tifo for the music
🎵 IT'S A MEGADEAL... 🎵
He is also Brazilian!
Firmino might go down as the Scottie Pippen of Liverpool
But appreciated all the way
The Scattergram Song is now wedged in my frontal lobe which sounds a bit rude. Would you mind if I were to teach my folk group " Pleasant Woody Aroma" this new instant classic?..
Bobby is a combination of a 6, 8, 9 and 10. He’s a gem
33
Tom Worville, forever in our hearts, and the scattergram.
the beginning audio is too loud.
it's confirmed, jj bull is one of the scattergram overlords
This one needs to be a 3-dimensional scattergram with goals as the other axis.
Good luck Tom Worville at RB Leipzig! Sad to see the boi go but interesting video
Wooo
Hoping this is the beginning of The Athletic and Tifo graphical representation extended universe where we discover Amy Lawrence is confined within a line chart, Phil Hay is cornered inside a circle graph and Iain Macintosh beguiles JJ in to a histogram
+1 for the singing
My friends : "what is that song you are humming?"
Me : You wouldnt get it..... UNLESS you watch tifo irl.
Come for the data, stay for the music
10/10 opening
I never knew j.j was a musical genius
This confirms that JJ is the high priest for the scattergram. Sad when it loses a captive but happy when another finds their way to be trapped inside.
Salah and Mane aren’t selfish. That helps, and both are likely to offload in the box.
Tom having escaped the scatter gram was the last thing I expected today
Tom Worville + TH-cam subtitles = Tall Marvel
Firmino is a strange case. Ultra talented but I think he's a spent force at Liverpool (injury aside). Without him we're now demolishing sides 4-0 on a regular basis. For years he's been my favourite player. :(
