A big night for Tyler Dibling. A night when his flashes of promise turned into a genuine, match-winning display
This was a big opportunity for him and the sense at Hill Dickinson, including from Alan Irvine, is he took it

Best Cymru Premier shirt, not just this season, but of all time? We think so…
Superb from @TeamTorSports 🔥
We echo what we wrote about @fcunion_en in Sept. In January they acquired 3 players ages 26, 27, & 30. Josip Juranovic in particular has been massive, but Laidouni & Roussillion have made 10 & 8 starts and had an impact as well. Is value investment alive and well? #Bundesliga
All three of the clubs we mentioned below are winning right now and in the top 8 of the #Bundesliga (knock on wood!). Be interesting to see how it shakes out, but clearly @fcunion_en, @VfLWolfsburg_EN, and @eintracht_eng deserve a lot of credit for their recruitment.

@TheScoutedHub We definitely got this one correct I think. 😃
Since being only 2 points out of relegation in mid-March, @SevillaFC_ENG has 16 points (2nd best), and has moved up to mid-table. In their last win vs. Espanyol, all 3 goal scorers were players brought in via the January window. Bravo to Monchi for rectifying mistakes.#Laliga

Brighton’s owner Tony Bloom.
Brentford’s owner Matthew Benham.
Both gambling experts.
One of the key concepts of gambling is managing and controlling risk.
Make chance work out in your favour.
There will *always* be risk though.
Why does this scare so many clubs?

This isn’t confirmed, but is it that bad?
Yes and no.
Unlike Mastercard’s genius evolution, La Liga has opted for revolution.
The new logo has no golden thread back to the heritage of the iconic colour wheel.
What was the most recognisable feature is no more.

Extremely grateful to the board to be given the opportunity to lead this Fantastic football club for the last 5 games. Proud of the players & Management team ensuring we kept our Status in the WPL. Not the season we had wished for but time to recharge the batteries now. 💛💚
Barcelona's defensive record is nothing short of amazing. Only 9 GA all season - next best in Europe's big 5 leagues is Lazio with 21. They've conceded only 2 goals at home. It's a combo of high pressure, possession, but they control matches so well. #LaLigaSantander
#RCLens continues to make us look good! Tied for second in #Ligue1UberEats and right in the #UCL mix.
Recruitment is the key. What a great job @RCLens did retooling from last season. Now sitting 4 points off top in @Ligue1_ENG, right behind PSG.
We watch lots South American football & we like Calegari's potential, but agree his offensive game is limited with sign of potential...think the idea of playing in a lesser defensive league to help develop his offensive game before a bigger move is a really interesting idea.
@LAGalaxy wasted no time in replacing Julian Araujo with 21-year-old Calegari from Fluminense. While Calegari isn’t quite the player Araujo is, he’s a responsible FB with good athleticism and strength, and an emerging offensive game that’s better in the middle than final third.
Some massive results in Europe this weekend, but this Porto / Gil Vicente match is one of the most shocking - Porto has 15 minutes to try and get points, they are down by 2 men, and have had a goal overturned. If this stands, Benfica will be 8 points clear. Very strange match.
Almada at #ATLUTD is a talent. He's very right footed, but it's a weapon combined with his ball control, deception, and good agility and underrated strength. His defensive effort is inconsistent, but was good to see him on the ball so often last night. #MLSisBack
As always, thanks to understat.com/ and their interface that depicts data by date, which is super useful for simplistic time based analysis.
We've been playing around with some numbers using Understat's xPTS model to see how the World Cup break may have affected some teams and there are some pretty interesting results. While we've already mentioned #Chelsea, there are other statistical outliers.

#SerieA has #Napoli with both the most pts and xPTS, but has a few low end outliers with #Fiorentina and #Udinese at 6 points each from xPTS of 11.06 and 10.57.
And #Ligue1 with big disparities - #Lille has the best xPTS since the break at 19.32, but only has 15 points (7th) while #ASMonaco has 23 points from only 17.84 xPTS. But #Auxerre and #AngersSco have brutal results with only 5 and 2 points from xPTS of 12.70 and 8.21.
