You're constantly ignoring goal differential. Even if you think "advanced" stats are somehow better than goal differential (which I don't agree with at all), goal differential is still a very, very relevant stat.

You can't just pick the stats you like and ignore the ones that don't agree with you.

I'm also honestly baffled how someone can watch this team and say they constantly outplay the opposition or have more/better scoring chances.

Just because teams that outplay the opposition have good fancy stats does not mean that teams with good fancy stats outplay the opposition. That's not how stats work.
