My motto since I’ve started writing has always been to know my strengths. I’m more of a storyteller/question asker, I’m not a tactical genius (as my haters will tell you). That said, I am grateful for those who are, like @ajsportstat.bsky.social. Highly recommended this tactical breakdown of Reiten!

The 2025-26 NWSL offseason is in full swing, so I created some visualizations that help keep track of what each team is doing! Full post (with interactive visuals, that will be updated weekly) is here: ajsportstat.github.io/nwsl/schedul..., but check out some highlights below! 👇🧵

had stress dreams about fbref :(

How the hell do you not get a transfer fee out of MICHELE KANG????

Check out interactive versions of these graphs here! ajsportstat.github.io/nwsl/schedul...

Happy for NC fans but curious what the FO’s plan was before Sheridan got let go by Wave

When Amanda and I first started this newsletter in February, writing the final recap of the year was the last thing on my mind, but by the time October rolled around I started anxiously anticipating having to write about the match that ended Gotham's 2025 season. 1/2
