Heverton Santos... on 18:27 - May 19 by lassel | In theory, absolutely a cheap punt that didnt work out shouldn’t be worth getting excited over. Again though it comes back to the ongoing question of the data model being used for recruitment and what inputs were put in that churned out a right winger from the Portuguese 2nd Division as our new starting right back. |
"Again though it comes back to the ongoing question of the data model being used for recruitment and what inputs were put in that churned out a right winger from the Portuguese 2nd Division as our new starting right back." Why are you blaming the data? I can't remember names and dates but the club has announced partnerships with analytics companies in the last year or two. We're probably using the same or similar data to every other Championship club. But you still need to know how to use it properly, how to interpret it, and how to correctly apply it. That's why you can't just rely on data for making decisions. And it's why we should have someone with solid practical knowledge of football actively involved in the decision making. Data on its own is not enough. You need to back it up with solid scouting from people who know the game. [Post edited 20 May 13:48]
