I'm the other analyst mentioned in the article, but my position is probably quite similar.
I work with a team's coaching staff and management to help them make more data-driven decisions. This ranges from topics around opposition analysis to player recruitment.
- pvg 8y agoOh, I coffeelessly missed that bit. Analyst for an MLS team sounds even more interesting. You should do an AMA, perhaps.
- omaranto 8y agoWhy does being an analyst for an MLS team sound more interesting than being an analyst for a Premier League team?
- pvg 8y agoIt seems more interesting to hear from an insider under those circumstances. For starters, an MLS analyst might actually be able and willing to chitchat with you. MLS is an odd place compared to the top European leagues - there's no threat of relegation, no scrambling to earn Champions or Europa League spots and, comparatively, also no money. There's the business with the 'designated players'. The dominant sport in this particular analyst's market is ice hockey. Etc.
