Do you know if you've finally employed a Data Analysis service of some kind or are you still lagging behind in that department?

I remember back when United signed Wan-Bissaka Woodward was bragging about how he was chosen from a shortlist of 804 options and StatsBomb Podcast I believe it was were amazed that he didn't realize that it wasn't actually a thing to brag about but actually indicated an incredibly wasteful and inefficient scouting setup.

I'm not a United fan so correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't that been a theme for ages for you? When was the last time you made your signings early in the window? Mourinho's first summer with Zlatan et al maybe?

Okay I was a chronic lurker on Reddit but seeing you here gives me hope for the Soccer community on this site, which has thus far been a huge gaping hole. I honestly haven't used anything other than r/Soccer to keep up with football news in many years so I hope Lemmy can shoulder that burden sooner rather than later. It's probably the one part of Reddit that I'm really struggling to replace and/or live without.
