That arsenal City match tracks wasn’t very entertaining for neutrals. Also a bit surprised to see west ham so high

It will be with any low block.

Most xG models don't change if there is 0 or 5 defenders between the player and the goal. So against a low block you may get into a good xG position but it will just get blocked.
