xGI share is a player's expected goal involvement against the sum of every involvement the feed measured at this club in this competition — 26 players, including any who have since left. It is a share of measured player involvement, not of the club's own expected goals, and the two do not reconcile: the club's figure counts every shot it took, including those by players the feed missed, and expected assists are a different measurement altogether. 9 players in the table are outside that sum, because the feed holds no expected goals or no expected assists for them.

Rates per ninety minutes are shown for a player with at least 270 minutes behind him — the control above moves that floor, and it moves nothing else. Minutes share is a player's minutes against the 12 matches this club has played in this competition, at ninety minutes each. Expected goals, non-penalty expected goals and expected assists are summed from this competition's per-match feed, so a player it holds no figures for carries a dash rather than a nought.

About the data

Where these figures come from, and what they leave out

Data source
Where the per-match feed covers Championship, every figure on a row — appearances, starts, minutes, goals, assists, shots, and the expected goals, expected assists and non-penalty expected goals beside them — is summed from it over the matches he played for this club. Where it does not, the counts are the provider's season line. Championship only — no figure here adds two competitions together.
Calculated by xgEdge
xGI, the per-90 rates, goals minus expected goals, xGI share and minutes share are worked out here from those figures. Nothing on this page is a model's output.
Missing data
A dash means a figure was not measured; a nought means it was measured and came to nothing. Per-90 figures are hidden below the minimum-minutes setting, which opens at 270 and never removes a row.
