Well its not just a stats thing, you can watch vids of the players and of course set parameters to determine range and direction of passes.

Some stats are fairly useless, but some speak volumes.

Yeah totally agree, was just waffling about stats generally.

Drives me nuts how people will bang on about how many goals/assists a player has had in a season (which is just very simple stats) and then dismiss deeper stats (i.e useful context) as 'football is too complex for data'.

Do if you wanted it for say 20 European countries and 10 African plus 10 South American that’s 40 x 149 =1560 Euro a year
Zat might be interested
Does that give you acces to all the stats and videos ??

Gives you access to everything, even a messaging system, so Brands can taunt other DoFs about how much of a baller he is.

Marcel Brands : I signed Lucas Digne, you signed Ryan Babel
Tony Khan : Reported

What’s the benefit of having it?

Stats and video are all over the web, what so special about this?

Its just a big database, as you say you could find most things in other places, but basically this has them in 1 spot, just makes it easier for people to search 10000s of players at once kinda thing.

Also youtube highlight vids arent the best thing for scouting, this actually tracks players for a full 90minutes in matches, it shows what they do well, it shows what they do badly.

Basically its a very useful tool for professional people.

I guess I’m not professional enough to understand the benefit of it. I’ll just stick to YouTube vid of Niasse dribbling pass people like Lionel Messi then.

....Borja Iglesias is a big old unit and has an impressive goalscoring record.

It was one game, but I wasn't blown away by him this weekend.

FYI - for those of us Yanks (whatever the heck that means) or people who permanently reside in America, we have access to more games than we could ever watch with just a basic cable package. So if anything it sounds like it might be easier to watch Espanyol over here than it is in England. Could be wrong.

Well for example the jarg scouts on here, for which I count myself as 1, whenever we are linked to a player, off we go to wiki, whoscored, then off to youtube and we make our mind up based on crap like that.

With this Silva can say "Marcel I want a youngish DM, good on the ball, with an extensive passing range, I want him to left footed and I want him to drive the ball forward" so Marcel can enter all that into his little widget, find all the player stats, look at vids and determine which players are worth scouting in the flesh. Or he can watch a game in the flesh and somebody else catches his eye. When he gets home he can find out everything about that player within minutes.

I mean we look at 1 or 2 players every few days, people like Brands will be looking at 000s of players every single day.
