let's be honest, in the 'which of the continental tournaments are valuable in comparison to each other' debate, the wrongly-rated one is the Copa America. Routinely a dreadful tournament, such poor quality. Tough to place too much focus on a Brazilian/Argentine winning it. Obv a huge deal for others

I was mostly OK with Arsenal not doing much in Jan (although think Tels is a star). I have lots of questions about last summer though! What was the plan if Sterling didn't happen?

I wrote a little bit about quantifying the impact of fatigue on ball-striking/finishing for players. Do players get tired in-game? Or between games without rest? talatabont.substack.com/p/do-tired-p...

Things I want for this UCL night: - a red zone with all high xG misses and chances - a model that tells me which next goal would be most impactful for top 4, top 8, top 16 chances - A live look at draw outcomes at all times But apparently TVs don't even do PIP anymore and none of the above exists?

I wrote about Long Balls, First Contacts, Second Balls, who's good at them, who's BAD at them, and a few other bits and pieces, for the @statsbomb.com blog here --> statsbomb.com/articles/soc...

Increasingly convinced that MLS + Timber make the Arsenal attack go Unsure if it's completely a good thing?

With Ethan hurt & another controversial ref call, that about wraps it up for league play. Frustrating to talk about refs, but this is the league that said the Doku/MacA 50/50 wasn't a pen and the Saliba one is a carbon copy with less contact. Get healthy, go for cups, go again next year!
