    Matt Ryan is donating 500 dollars to the Australian bushfire effort for every registered save made by every keeper in the PL today.

    According to Talksport the average is around 60 saves

    Hope my keeper makes 50 of them.

    In fairness to that poster, he hasn't shown a whole lot bar one game. If he wasn't Irish, he wouldn't be on anyones radar.

    He showed plenty in the games before
    He was 4.5
    He is very young in his first season so he is bound to pick up niggles
    Calling him a one hit wonder is harsh

    A 4.5m striker getting minutes will always be on the radar, Irish or not. And he's shown plenty in a few games, you obviously haven't watched him much.

    You don't have to watch anymore - There's enough data available everywhere now to tell the story.

    The way analytics is going, footage is actually being used less and less, so saying something like 'you obviously haven't watched him much', is honestly the retort of a child.

    Really? Do you work in football at the highest level? Stats will never tell the full story. The eye test has and always will be the best way of determining whether a player is good enough or not.

    I work in Data/Analytics, so have many Football/Rugby teams at the top level as clients etc.

    Tableau/Qlikview data is what they want these days. Less and less looking for footage.

    Why do clubs still employ scouts then?

    You just have to look/read about how Liverpool choose their targets to see it is moving more towards stats etc.

    I said 'less and less'.

    Also, again, Scouts are using data more these days.

    Obviously there's a certain amount of eye-test, but with Sportscode etc, Scouts know what they're looking for, so they're seeking out clips rather than large footage etc.

    Imagine believing this.

    As Mourinho said, "the way people that don't understand football analyse football, is with stats."
