How can stats be so different?

they defended poorly because with so little shots, so little posession they got beat by clinical finishing, ots mot about if buts candies and nuts its about who scores most by whatever legal means possible. ie tactics. chelsea obviously got it right becuase they won big ears

your problem is you fovus too muvh on what could of happened, I live in a world where I bade my opinion on what has actually haopened. go back to your fairytale land of giants and unicorns.

football is about tactics they got them right, contain barca until the final third, get some luck along the way and be deadly when a chance arises. pretty football doesnt to deserve a victory. nothing deserves victory other than the score. thats what history remembers
................................................
Teams who create the most chances normally win. Theres a reason why barca have won 3 champions leagues in last 6 years. Theres a reason why man utd have reached 3 champions league finals undefeated in last 5 years. Just that most of the time if you are good you do well.

Chelsea deserved to beat barca in 2009 but barca completely dominated chelsea in 2012, probably the most one sided semi-final/

I think you statto are getting mixed up with results and who desrved to win, a team can win completely undeserved. It happens probably once in a while hence why top teams normally win in the league.

no teams who take there chances normally win.

thats not true, if man utd have 30 chances and take 10% of them while a team has 2 chances and takes 100% of them man utd win. A lot of games seem to happen like that against man utd.

ok so use your own equation in the chelsea game v barca. what % did thry convert? the answer blows your theory out the ground because as I stated what matter and only matters is the goals scored stat. not how many passes or shots or fouls noj of it matters if the opposition score more than you. fact. unless of course you can show me a game when a team drew 0-0 but won because they had more shots or possession.

I already said most of the time teams like barca who battered chelsea win most of the time hence they won 3 champions league. Only a small amount of time they don't win by battering opposition like against inter milan in 2010 and chelsea in 2012 dejavu type games. Inter and chelsea clinical while barca had 90%+ of the shots and 70%+ possession but they never won somehow.

theres a reason why people say you need luck to win the champions league while having an ok team. Football you can dominate 93 out of 94mins but lose. Thats why people watch it as man utd winning is not guaranteed likewise real madrid or any team.

Perfect examples of man utd battering was when we battered arsenal in the fa cup final in 2005 and I was annoyed that we lost on penalties as that must have been the most one sided 0-0 in the history of football and fa cup finals that a team lost. Heck we battered portsmouth in 2008 at old trafford shiould had a penalty early on and lost to portsmouth first attack that led to a penalty and red card and a goal. 99% of the game man utd attacked created all the chances but we lost. However if man utd to play portsmouth most of the time we win as you can get lucky only so many times. Same when we lost to burnley 1-0 we could easily have scored 10 goals that game but burnley scored from 1 of 2 chances they created the whole game. Its more luck then anything.

Also burnley got relegated man utd were a win away to blackburn to winning the premier league despite us losing to burnley which shows the luck and how upsets happen a lot of the time.

have you found me a game where someone drew on goals scored but actually won the game because they had more shots on target? more goal attempts? or more possession. until you do please keep quiet.
