MessiCam produced stats to show that defence was better last year.
Then realised he had it the wrong way round those same stats showed the defence better this year.
Now those stats he tried to show the defence was better last year have been discarded and searches for new stats.
Says it all.
Barca are conceding less goals, less attempts on target..... the defence is better.
The defence being in place to block a shot is a positive not a negative ffs. If a team has 10 shots in the box and they are pressured and defence in place to block them that is better than 5 shots in the box where the defence is all over the shop.
Teams like Burnley and Atletico have built defences that way. They dont care so much about how many chances you get but how many easy/uncontested ones.
The polar opposite has been Liverpool and Peps teams at top level. They wont give up as many but they can give up 3/4 much easier ones and get destroyed.
