English Football 2015-16 - Leicester City won the league - Page 1528 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

We care a lot obviously. We just aren't going to hang our heads in shame if we finish 2nd (or even 3rd). How hilarious is that? I guess you don't care about being 20 pts behind them despite having enough money to buy Leicester city. And I don't mean the football club, I mean the entire city.

I do care and I don't go out of my way to convince people otherwise. Therein lies the difference.

So it should be clear why I'm skeptical about a predictive model that only reveals it's predictions after the event.

That said, even a tool that allowed you to more objectively evaluate past results would be useful to someone who doesn't want to base whether they were lucky/unlucky on merely hot takes.

It's only useful if you accept that the tool is accurate in the first place.

Kante has a Marcos Senna Euro '08 (back when Torres was good) vibe going for him

TP - effective benchmarking reduces your line effectively to shouting at clouds

I'm sure some are not doing the proper diligence though. It takes a lot of data.

I believe i called Kante a crossover between Matuidi and Verratti like a year ago.

Leicester wasted 3 out of the last 5 minutes and people are dumbfounded at the stopage time

Looks like soton are content to waste their own time too. Masterful performance from them in the last 10 min. Control possession the whole game until the point the opposition is going to just sit back. Impressively terrible.
