Pretty sure most clubs will already be exploiting AI for this. Bloom doesn’t have some magic algorithm he keeps to himself.

From what I've read, Bloom invested in this well before AI via his subsidiary developer companies. Its pretty advanced & he's got everyone under NDAs. His former friend/employee Benham broke away & tried something similar under Brentford but the algorithm is no way near as advanced & competitive.

Rumour has it Bloom would sooner sell players, coaches & staff than his algorithm.

Probably why Brighton seem to let go of managers but replace them swiftly with hardly any drop in performance.

I would hope City have at least set some wheels of motion in exploring something which seems to be the future in some form of diversification, but I wouldn't be confident of it and would be playing catch-up.

The was an article knocking about on this via the CFG system, where they analyse the data metrics against leagues, clubs, former player development trends so the know the best club in the system for him to integrate and move through. Could have been the Athletic? was a few years ago now though

You’re missing the point mate.

Any decent AI provider would be able to do the same as whatever Bloom is doing.

He absolutely has.That is how Starlizard works.

Nope. Hammersmithlad is mostly correct.

Bringing back Nmecha would be an interesting one!

Wasn't there a link to West Ham's Alvarez few weeks back?

I bloody well hope not. How low can these suggestions plummet?

I don’t see how all clubs collect data, CFG have more data than most if not all as they have more scouts more clubs. The main point of CFG is to share the data and costs of gathering the data. You then pick which data points you want in a particular player so for a defender you might say of all the players we have looked at which ones have the most tackles won etc and then you try and get those top players

I don’t see how this is an algorithm as such or unique different clubs will have different priorities and different levels of players they can get and some will put more emphasis on what the scouts see how does the player look

I think there is confusion here. Starlizard are using algorithms to analyse stats for gambling purposes. I interviewed there lol.

They are able to apply parts of the data they use to identify things to help Brighton for players but its nothing that CFG won't be using also.

Brighton have had their fair of complete shit also but that gets covered up by the success lets not forget.

The main thing Brighton can offer players like Baleba is a very good structure to come into. Nice place to live, close to London, modern stadium, good training facilities and average to good performances in the league consistently.
