Man, these KPI posts are great checks of the eye-test and vibe-test vs. cold hard data. Always one of my favorites from Cannon Stats.

Scott - there's definitely been more Arsenal penalties in this run of matches. I understand why the KPI was built on non-penalty XG, but is this a flaw in the metric - because once you get a penalty, you have less need to score a goal. Just wondering if the awarding of more PKs has a disruptive effect on your analysis or you think the KPI already accounts for this.
