Im a big nasri fan, it'll be interesting to see how he gets on this season, hoping Jovetic pushes him hard
So in this 4-3-3 system I take it if Silva was playing that he'd be on the wing or is he out altogether?
You're quite correct that if the full backs joined the attack that it would leave us exposed to the ball over the top and the swift counter-attack, but this is what is increasingly happening to us now anyway and why I suggested more creativity in forward positions and that the defenders stay put in the main.
Also, if you were providing the analysis to Newcastle on Monday night and City were set up as I suggested but the defenders were to stay put and only support when absolutely necessary, in your professional capacity how would you advise Newcastle as to the best way to negate and counteract us?
And yes please I'd love to know how performance analysis is recorded in a match situation. I mean do you just concentrate one player for that match or one team or both? The only way I could see it was to have an army of scientists sat there monitoring every player individually. Also if every Premiership game was on the same day, you'd need 220+ scientists to analyse every players progress and that doesn't count someone weighing up all the possession stats either.
Also, what about the discrepancies in performance data? I've seen different oragnisations analyse the same match and come up with sometimes wildly differing stats. How and why does that happen?
Are the stats 100% accurate and does anyone analyse the analysis?
