It is incredibly difficult to move the field of football analytics forward, especially inside clubs, where despite the implication in the article it is decidedly rare. I've got no objections to the FM database as a possible template for scout reports, but it has nothing to do with analytics, and when people _say_ it does, and then somehow it doesn't work because you bought Ibrahima Bakayoko, it sets the field back even further.
