Brentford's Loss Our Gain

Brentford will use their mathematical modelling to recruit players and it appears they will use it to identify targets to watch before making any decision on signing them.

New head coach Marinus Dijkhuizen is open to these ideas with directors of football Ankersen and Phil Giles having their input in the recruitment process.

Ankersen said: “It’s a lot about understanding what stats can be used for and where the weaknesses with stats are.

The only stat that matters is played 8 won 2 drawn 2 lost 4. No wonder Warburton left if he was relying on a glorified football manager computer game to sign players.

Their owner is obviously a banger.

From the play-offs to relegation candidates, another prime example of an owner who knows fuck all about football

To be fair to the guy it seems to be working with his other team in Denmark but I for one am extremely happy he's went down the stats route otherwise we wouldn't have Warbs as our manager today.
