@ChelseaFC Come on guys, he was the perfect replacement for Pep 😅 https://t.co/v8460EBLaG

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

How will Maresca fit Manchester City?🤔

Well…

Like a glove, according to the data🤯

Maresca’s sides are slightly more direct.

But possession, final third recoveries and passes per shot are remarkably similar to Pep.

Have City found the perfect successor?👀

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@footballontnt You probably knew Maresca’s style was similar to Pep’s, but did you know it was THIS similar?⬇️⬇️ https://t.co/v8460EBLaG

@ManCity @premierleague He looks like the perfect guy to follow in Pep’s footsteps 👀 https://t.co/v8460EBLaG

@SkySportsPL I looked into the underlying numbers of Maresca’s style compared to Pep’s. Safe to say, they’re remarkably similar 😲 https://t.co/v8460EBLaG

@DougieCritchley What kind off fee do you think Sunderland could get for him if he wants out Dougie?🤔

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

The knockout stage beings tonight🥊

But who does the DATA say has been the best team so far?👀

According to xPts, Spain top the rankings🇪🇸

England are second (not sure how 😅), and Argentina complete the top 3.

Portugal's mediocrity is mirrored by the data😬

The USA are surprisingly low.

Of course, opponent quality plays a part, but which nation has impressed you the most so far?👇

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@DeadlineDayLive The interest in Fernandes is crazy 🤯. I compared 6 of the most sought after midfielders on the market right now across 11 attacking and defensive metrics. Who would you want your club to sign?👀 https://t.co/8hVxKQ3VhK

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

Who is the most COMPLETE midfielder on the market?🤔

Comparing 6 highly-rated midfielders across 11 metrics, the answer is...

Elliot Anderson📈

The other 5 are separated by just 3.4 points😮

Who would you want your club to sign?👀

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@BBCSport How far can one of the best performing teams from the group stage really go?🤔 https://t.co/YGGVmcExPG

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@xGPhilosophy Despite performing well in the group stage, that was pretty poor from Canada. Job done though! https://t.co/YGGVmcExPG

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@CiszewskiPatryk @WhoScored I bet 😂

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@DeadlineDayLive @RodriVazquez95 That’s a blow to the fernandes pursuit 😬. Alex Scott could still be an excellent signing though. I ranked several midfielders rumoured to be on the move based on a bunch of attacking and defensive statistics, and Alex Scott comes out second only to Elliot Anderson

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@DeadlineDayLive The North East clubs are getting their midfields raided 😅

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@DeadlineDayLive One of them should really just turn their attention to Bouaddi at this point 😅

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@talkSPORT Looking at the numbers, it depends really. If you want pure goals, then Kane or Mbappé is an easy pick. If you’re wanting someone who can still strike the balance of goals and creativity, then Messi might be your man, or even Olise 👀 https://t.co/iFNJpm5VSU

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

Who is the best forward at the World Cup?⚽️

Kane has >1 xG/90 this season🤯

Ronaldo and Mbappé aren't far behind.

Messi is STILL striking that balance of goals and creativity.

Olise averages 0.67xA/90🎯

Who will lead their nation to World Cup Glory?🏆

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@DougieCritchley I looked at Xhaka’s impact on Sunderland a while back. He’d be a huge miss for you guys😬 https://t.co/OueDHDCB8y

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

The difference between European football and RELEGATION?🤯

That's the impact Granit Xhaka has had on Sunderland🥶

When he starts:
1.5PPG

When he doesn't:
1.0PPG

Goals scored declines.
Goals conceded increases.
xG diff worsens.

Impact.

Is he your signing of the season?👀

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@brfootball The golden boot race is certainly heating up 👀https://t.co/A54hNko1Hf

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

How's the World Cup golden boot race looking?🏆

Messi leads the way after bagging his 6th goal of the tournament against Jordan last night.

Mbappé and Vini are neck and neck on 4 goals. Funny what happens when they are both the main man with their national teams👀

Haaland and Dembélé are also on 4, while Harry Kane and 9 others are on 3 goals!

Who's your pick to win the golden boot?👇

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

@SkyFootball That’s certainly justifying his selection. Should he be starting ahead of Raya or Joan García though 🤔 https://t.co/rRUmAUleSW

[Analytico FC @AnalyticoFC]

Who is the best GK at the World Cup?🧤

Maignan and García prevented over 10 goals this season🤯

Pickford has also impressed, facing the most xGOT while still preventing goals.

Meanwhile, Raya, Simón and Neuer have all conceded more than the data predicted.

Who's your choice?
