  • Chapter Iv Individual Player Contributions in European Soccer
    Guy Wilkinson PhD Thesis (2017) CHAPTER IV INDIVIDUAL PLAYER CONTRIBUTIONS IN EUROPEAN SOCCER ABSTRACT This paper looks at applying new techniques to predict match outcomes in professional soccer. To achieve this models are used which measure the individual contributions of soccer players within their team. Using data from the top 25 European soccer leagues, the individual contribution of players is measured using high dimensional fixed effects models. Nine years of results are used to produce player, team and manager estimates. A further year of results is used to check for predictive accuracy. Since this has useful applications in player scouting the paper will also look at how well the models rank players. The findings show an average prediction rate of 45% with all methods showing similar rankings for player productivity. While the model highlights the most productive players there is a bias towards players who produce and prevent goals directly. This results in more attackers and defenders ranking highly than midfield players. There is potential for these techniques to be used against the betting market as most models produce better performance than many betting firms. Guy Wilkinson PhD Thesis (2017) 1. INTRODUCTION This paper focuses on producing models with a high prediction rate in professional soccer. The main challenge is to produce accurate estimations of player ability, a problem analogous to research on worker productivity. The study of worker productivity is of great value to businesses in almost every industry. Hiring the best workers will improve the overall performance of business and increase profit. It is of great importance for firms to be able to screen potential employees efficiently to determine their value.

  • Elfenbenskusten Favoriter I Afrikanska Mästerskapet 2017
    Elfenbenskusten favoriter i Afrikanska Mästerskapet 2017 På lördag inleds den 31:a upplagan av Afrikanska Mästerskapet i fotboll i Gabon. Hemmanationen ställer sitt hopp till Dortmundstjärnan Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang för att rubba favoriterna och regerande mästarna Elfenbenskusten. – Det blir ett otroligt spännande mästerskap att följa, inte minst då ett par allsvenska bekantingar är med. Exempelvis ska AIK:s Ebenezer Ofori tillsammans med förre Djurgårdaren Daniel Amartey försöka spela hem ett sjätte guld till Ghana. Det ska också bli kul att få se hemmanationen Gabons talangfulle Serge-Junior Martinsson Ngouali, till vardags i Brommapojkarna, på den här nivån, säger Henrik Holm på Unibet De främsta utmanarna till Elfenbenskusten är enligt oddsen Senegal, Algeriet och Egypten. Senegal kommer till Gabon för att ta hem sitt första mästerskapsguld och en av nycklarna är att Liverpoolstjärnan Sadio Mané kan behålla sin fina form från höstens Premier League-spel. – Elfenbenskusten ser väldigt starka ut, det såg man inte minst i träningsmatchen mot Sverige nyligen. Det finns dock flera nationer som ställer upp med starka lag och historiskt sett har turneringen visat på många favoritfall och skrällvinster, inte minst 2012 när Zambia gick hela vägen, säger Henrik Holm på Unibet. Totalt har svenska klubbar fem representanter i turneringen och förutom Ebenezer Ofori och Serge-Junior Martinsson Ngouali kommer Matthew Rusike (Helsingborg/Zimbabwe), Tino Kadewere (Djurgården/Zimbabwe) och Lalawélé Atakora (Helsingborg/Togo) vara på plats i Gabon.

Rodriguez, scoring his second of the tournament, and substitute Juan Fernando Quintero, with his first inter- national goal, struck in the second-half while Gervinho replied with a superb individual goal, his second of the finals, for the African side.

  • Amir Voices Gratitude on Liberation ‘Noble Stance’
    skiing THE FIRST ENGLISH LANGUAGE DAILY IN FREE KUWAIT markets Page 14 Established in 1977 / www.arabtimesonline.com Page 9 SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2021 / RAJAB 17, 1442 AH emergency number 112 NO. 17624 16 PAGES 150 FILS Reimagining diplomacy in the post-COVID world: an Indian perspective — Details Page 2 — Amir voices gratitude on liberation ‘Noble stance’ KUWAIT CITY, Feb 27, (KUNA): His Highness the Amir Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ah- mad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah has sent cables of gratitude to leaders of Arab and foreign countries, which participated in the international coalition to liberate the State of Ku- wait from the brutal Iraqi invasion. In the cables, His Highness the Amir expressed gratitude to the hon- orable stances of these countries that stood firmly and decisively with Ku- wait. This was clear through urging the in- ternational community to condemn this aggression. His Highness the Amir also thanked the leaders for their prominent roles in confronting the invasion at the UN Secu- rity Council and international arenas. He also commended their contributions to forming and taking part in the interna- tional coalition through harnessing mili- tary capabilities to support the interna- tional legitimacy to liberate the State of Kuwait that led to the historical victory and the ending of the invasion. His Highness the Amir stressed that such noble and historical stances were highly appreciated and it will remain in the Kuwaiti people’s memory.
