Interesting that it looks like it’s just a defensive collapse then. Makes some sense with Rodri down.
Interesting that there’s been a very gradual defensive decline over the past few seasons. Since around match 170 they’ve gone from a peak defensive stat of <0.5 xGA to nearly 1 xGA. And now, that decline coinciding with Rodri’s long-term injury seems to have turned into a collapse.
Suggestion: It’d be helpful if the x-axis indicated seasons. Hard to know what season match 150 corresponds with.
