A really good read and informative as usual. Thankyou.

One question what does PPDA stand for on the circular chart where you have possession, territory etc..?

Thanks for sharing Elite. I'm in deepest Norfolk so struggling with my internet connection otherwise would have responded earlier.

PPDA stands for Passes allowed per defensive action. It essentially looks at how many passes you allow the opposition when they are attacking before they lose possession. It's a metric used to identify a teams pressing but it can be skewed at times because a team could really pres Notts but the quality we have on the ball means we could still keep possession for long periods despite their press which would suggest their press is lacking when it isn't, it just isn't effective.

Nearly 76% possession, that's madness We had more of the ball at Wrexham than we did at home agaainst Wealdstone!

Great stuff as usual, but I expected Wrexham's Xg to be above ours. I suppose it was until the missed penalty, which must have a big say in the percentages given the 80% chance of scoring.

I think our downfall was in the Xde (expected defensive errors). Even though their first goal was very questionable due to the foul on Bajrami, the other two were down to dire defensive play from us. We might have a case for deserving a draw, but if this was a boxing match there was only one winner on points, and it wasn't us.
