🚨 Yesterday, Luis Enrique watched the first half against Lens from the press box and then, in the second, went down to the bench.

🗣️❗️ Luis Enrique: "For some time now, I've been watching rugby coaches who analyze matches from a very different perspective. I like the possibility of seeking that improvement. I wanted to follow the first half from the stands and it's magnificent. It's different. I can control everything."

"It's an interesting option that I'm going to use in the future. After that, you can perfectly give the halftime talk because you've seen perfectly who played well on the field. We have a lot of direct information."

Billy Beane was the brains behind Moneyball, played by Brad Pitt in a film about his life, and a figurehead for sport's analytics revolution.

In an exclusive interview with The Athletic, Beane and Luke Bornn, another big influence in the data sphere, discuss...

🔹 The legacy of Moneyball
🔹 Why football has struggled to follow baseball’s analytical revolution
🔹 The strengths and perils of signing younger players
🔹 The evolving role of the manager and admiration for Sir Alex Ferguson
🔹 How data identified Mohamed Salah and Jude Bellingham early
🔹 Why analytics has had 'little to no impact' on tactics
