Description
Data Game: The Story of Liverpool FC's Analytics Revolution The story of Liverpool FC's rise to greatness in the 21st century is one of data-driven innovation. The club's transformation into a data-driven organisation was not an overnight success, but rather the result of a decade-long journey. From errors in the transfer market to suboptimal playing styles, Liverpool faced numerous challenges before achieving their ambitions. At the heart of this transformation was the marriage of data and football. The club's relationship with numbers began with a vision to transform the team into a data-driven organisation. However, there was a story behind why this vision took time to become a reality. The tale of how Liverpool gained an edge over their wealthier rivals by getting smart is one of unsung heroes who shunned the limelight. This book tells the story of how Liverpool FC became a leader in the field of data science, and the key role that data played in their success.
