Am a huge advocate for this. Haven’t really looked at how this scales for recruitment, but the detail is helpful for pre-match prep and coaches definitely ask for it

Wes Burns has been out for nearly a year and is back amongst the goals for Ipswich away at Coventry. One of my favorite players (and people) I got to work with in football, very proud of him👏👏

Cunha has this quirk of being the best I’ve seen at playing the ball off a defender. Running through tackles, running with deflections. It’s a unique style and I wonder if that’s one of the elements that have kept him from being truly elite tier despite it being a positive skill

Fantastic move by the Galaxy. Think this complicates a move to keep Fagundez but the midfield wasn’t their problem and hasn’t been for the last couple of years. The defense needed work and Glesnes and Haak are great pieces

I’m most intrigued by a player subbing in, getting subbed out for injury, and having his replacement who then subbed in also subbed out for injury. Never seen that before

Todd Dunivant helped build and maintain a one of the USL's best teams -- Sac Republic never had a negative xGD during his better part of a decade in the front office. Obviously, City Football Group only gives NYCFC's CSO so much autonomy. Still, I really like the hire.

If NYCFC win this, the Miami would host the remaining playoffs games they’re in. They fell short of the supporters shield, but those wins heading into the playoffs could prove crucial

Sergio Busquets is old and slow. By next month he'll be retired. So how is he still so central to one of the best teams in MLS? Wrote for The Guardian about trying to measure a famously invisible kind of greatness.

In 2020-21, Robert Lewandowski had 35% of Bayern Munich's xG, the highest ever mark for a player on a title-winning team in a top 5 league. Erling Haaland currently has 60% of Man City's xG.

Manchester City's over-reliance on Erling Haaland is crazier than you think
City are the top scorers in the Premier League this season, but only one of their players has found the back of the net multiple times.
