It means Haaland is a good finisher, but that's because he gets easier shots. Messi, Mertens, Dybala, on the other hand, are great finishers even though the shots they get are more difficult.
Jesus gets easy shots, but can't finish for shit.

On the basis of that chart, Weghorst from Burnley would have been a much cheaper and better striker than Jesus for Woolwich to buy !
Chelsea to rival Spurs for in-demand Richarlison?
Chelsea are considering rivalling Tottenham for Everton forward Richarlison, Sky Sports News understands.The Blues are interested in the Brazilian as a potential replacement for Inter Milan-bound Romelu Lukaku.
Spurs are said to be very keen on Richarlison and the Toffees are braced for them to bid - but he is also one of several options Chelsea are looking at to improve their front-line.
Thomas Tuchel could sign as many as three new forwards, with interest in Man City's Raheem Sterling and Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele, who is soon to be out of contract.
Yep. This is exactly why some of us get annoyed when we dither and take our time. Chelsea enter the picture, it’s game over.
Who is dithering? Stop believing every single thing you hear and life will be a lot easier.
First of all, there isn't anything called "easy shots" - simply because so many of the are mishits. Even Spurs' very own Kane & Son misses a few "sitters" every season.
In order for players like Haaland to get those "easy shots" they have to position themselves smartly. It's not as if he can just walk his way to those "easy shots" - as most, if not all, those "easy shots" come from the most crowded areas on the field.
Players like Haaland, Kane are the most tightly marked players, so there are very few times anything comes "easy" for top center-forwards.
Yes, we're dithering because, you know, Conte came on this thread and clearly stated that he wants Richarlison yesterday, so we know he's his number one target. And the Everton DoF also came on this thread and told us that Spurs are dilly dallying with making an offer. So we know for sure that it's Spurs that are dithering.
Check the posts above. People are doing it on here too? Where the fuck did people's backbones go?

Maybe I am missing something here but why is it so important for Spurs to present a new player before signing out Bergwijn?
TBH, despite having been banned from that moron factory for years, I still get the 2 sites confused and typed the wrong one. I meant TFC, not Spurs Community.

Total and utter guesswork, The chances are, there will be an incoming beforehand and this chancer will claim he knew that was intentional.
A third of Jesus' goals were scored inside the 6 yard box - that's insanely high and is very much reliant on the type of football Pep coaches his teams to play and the high quality of player they have all over the pitch. Obviously Jesus is a part of that quality but positioning only gets you so far if your team mates aren't at the level to fadhion the chances regularly and/or the manager isn't coaching the plays well enough.
Arteta seems to be setting his stall out to make Woolwich, City 2.0 but unless he turns out to be a super coach above and beyond that of Pep, with inferior players he is only going to have them a poor man's Man City - which i don't think will have them succeed in their goals
most of Arsenals goals came inside the box last season.....
