<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>Presuming the worst case scenario as fact by policy is the literal definition of being negative. De-legitimizing their successes and attributes is the literal definition of being negative. Doing BOTH at the same time goes beyond "being negative". Like I said, climb down from the ledge, man. It's gonna be okay. And far sooner than a few years from now.

And also, analytics are highly flawed stats on multiple levels, including the building block basics of the formulas (things like xG, which need a ton of work still). They are not even remotely gospel, and they sure as hell do not "predict future success" - let alone across seasons.</div></div>

lol ‘insert Luke Skywalker gif’ for that second paragraph.

Bad teams have bad analytics, it’s that simple

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>1 - Underlyings mean exactly nothing to the standings. No discernible strengths? Bruh. You're assuming the worst.

2 - Is this some sort of high hurdle to you? And by the way, despite how we're all bashing them to the heavens and the season is cooked, it's still a .500 team. If you think there's no way for them to bounce back or improve, it's like you've never seen NHL hockey. But you have. Enhance your calm, buddy. Into every life some rain must fall. Just simple execution of the system would work wonders. I mean, that's basically everything wrong with them this season - lack of cohesion, lack of consistent intensity, making dumb mistakes. None of these are terminal, especially for a bunch of guys who were damn good last season and beyond.

3 - Again, this is presuming the worst case scenario as fact. Climb down off the ledge, man.</div></div>

Underlyings predict future success, that’s the point of using them… I’m not even being negative, just realistic. They massively over performed in 21-22 and I’d argue this is closer to where the Blues are on “true talent” than that season was. Furthermore, I’m like really excited to see a bunch of new blood enter the organization and I think the Blues could build a seriously dangerous squad in a few years if they do it right.
