It was a difficult season for Arsenal. The team finished 6th in the league – it’s worst position for over 20 years. During the season, Arsenal lost two great attacking players in Alexis Sanchez (who went to Man Utd), and Olivier Giroud (who went to Chelsea). You can see from the table below that those two guys took lots of shots. Arsenal needed to replace them to keep scoring goals.

El gol llegó en el minuto 15, previamente el Atlético disfrutó de varias llegadas, la primera de Raúl García tras una jugada de Juanfran, otras más claras y espectaculares, como una chilena que intentó el Guaje, el que después logró el tanto atlético.

  • Player Chemistry: Striving for a Perfectly Balanced Soccer Team
    Player Chemistry: Striving for a Perfectly Balanced Soccer Team Lotte Bransen1 ‒ Jan Van Haaren1,2 1SciSports, The Netherlands ‒ 2KU Leuven, Belgium {l.bransen, j.vanhaaren}@scisports.com Other Sports Track #1548755 1. Introduction In the dying hours of the 2010/2011 winter transfer window, Liverpool signed Andy Carroll from Newcastle United. Although The Reds had to break their transfer record, Carroll never met the expectations. The forward, who had scored 11 goals in 19 matches for The Magpies in the first half of the season, managed just 6 goals from 44 appearances for Liverpool. The then-22-year-old Carroll is a tall target man thriving from crosses, but Liverpool did not play that way and also did not have the appropriate players in their squad to accommodate his preferred playing style. In contrast, the more mobile Luis Suárez, who was signed on the same day and gelled much better with the players surrounding him on the pitch, scored 69 goals in 110 matches for Liverpool. Although this example illustrates the importance of chemistry among players, recruitment departments at soccer clubs still largely ignore this aspect in their evaluation of potential signings. Typically, scouts solely focus on the individual qualities of potential signings and do not account for the team balance and team chemistry in their judgments on the players. On one hand, assessing the potential chemistry with the players who are already on their team is hard by watching a limited number of matches either on tape or live in the stadium. On the other hand, existing soccer analytics tools that can process large volumes of match data mostly focus on evaluating the individual performances of players.
