Nope more like Lukaku showing what he does best and misses to glorious chances from 6 yards out.
We look flat today and disinterested, so its like they cant raise there game again after that PSG win

Lukaku’s been your best player today.
Agree with Hayesag, Ole might have used all of his lucky dust up on Wednesday.

Of course Arsenal keep a clean sheet when I bench Kolasinac playing Man Utd, but concede when playing Huddersfield and Cardiff...brilliant

I was just checking the xG for the weekend's games on Understat, TP, and was interested to see Burnley scored twice from an xG of 0.47.
I expect Valeron will be along shortly.

Just seen the first Liverpool goal. I think this has been the first time ever someone has been awarded an assist after two different opposition players got a touch.

Yet it was 100% assist according to FPL rules, because those touches didn't alter the intended destination of the ball.

Re: The Rounded Keeper - FPL Pub Talk & Matchday Banter 2018-19
The convention for as long as I can remember has been that if two defensive players touched the ball then it's no assist, even if the rules just plain haven't stated so either way. The rules have only described explicitely what happens if it hits one opposition player. This is the first time I can recall it happening with an assist being awarded after hitting two defs.
This year it seems they did muddy the waters as the rules now state that "should a touch by an opposing player be followed by a defensive error by another opposing outfield player then no assist will be awarded". So apparently they decided there was no defensive error and also threw out their old convention at the same time.
Aguero's assist would also never have been an assist in recent years; as by convention, if a defender played the ball against another player that was not deemed a 'deflection' but a deliberate clearance.

No Stemania, here is what the rules say:Stemania wrote: ↑11 Mar 2019, 12:16 The convention for as long as I can remember has been that if two defensive players touched the ball then it's no assist, even if the rules just plain haven't stated so either way.

So apparently they decided there was no defensive error and also threw out their old convention at the same time.
So according to this rule, it doesn't matter whether the ball touches one, two, three, four, or all eleven opposing players, as long as none of them alters the intended destination of the ball.If an opposing player touches the ball after the final pass before a goal is scored, significantly altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is awarded. Should a touch by an opposing player be followed by a defensive error by another opposing outfield player then no assist will be awarded. If the goal scorer loses and then regains possession, then no assist is awarded.
Basically you could just ask this: "Did an opposing player alter the intended destination of the ball?" The answer in this case is "No, an opposing player didn't alter the intended destination of the ball". The conclusion: it's a clear assist.
It's a clear assist according to the rules. Your extract of "defesive errors" is irrelevant in this case.

(I agree that if I did not know of FPLs previous interpretations that I would have awarded an assist for both as per the written rules)

Re: The Rounded Keeper - FPL Pub Talk & Matchday Banter 2018-19
Could you give me a precedent in which the ball touched at least two opposing players and none of them altered the intended destination of the ball? It's quite an unlikely event so I'm not sure if there are precedents available. It's what happened in this case anyway.
Okay, so we are already halfway to agreement!
