Powermonger Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 This is a suggestion to add scouting of players by the use of the Chief Data Analyst. Instead of the normal scout criteria search of specifying attributes, we can direct the chief data analyst to find you a list of players that have certain stats, such as: passing completion rate of 80% in the final third or middle third average tackles per game average interceptions shots on target % runs an average 13km per match etc The data analyst will then go away and find players that meet your criteria, presenting a list of possible players we could be interested in. We then have the choice of either scouting a select number of players or forward the whole list to the head scout to arrange the scouting team to investigate further. This will allow is as managers to then scout for players using two different methods and make more use of the data analysts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Good idea, I think clubs that use data in recruitment do it this way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To expand on the initial post more, it be good if we could have the following scouting scenarios: Set up a scouting assignment for a data analyst with a set of stat criteria and report back the findings. Manager can then decide who to scout further using the scouting team (as described above). Set up a scouting assignment for a data analyst with a set of stat criteria and then have these findings automatically passed on to the Head Scout to scout these players further. Set up a scouting assignment for a data analyst with a set of stat criteria and then have these findings automatically passed on to the Head Scout, who has his own filter criteria set beforehand by us. The players that meet this filter are then assigned to scouts to scout further. Set up a scouting assignment for the head Scout with a set of criteria and then have these findings automatically passed on to the Head Data Analyst, who has his own stat criteria set beforehand by us. The players that meet this criteria are presented to the manager. All players found during the initial scouting/data analyst phase are retained in a list for us to review those players that didn't pass the first search phase. Players who did past this phase have their names highlighted in the scouted list with different colour to signify this. Ability to setup a simultaneous player search with both the data analyst and scout with some shared criteria. Two sets of players are reported back for us to review and compare. This would give us more strategies to find players and make use of our scouting network. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
