This book is the best and most concise introduction you would hope to pick up regarding the subject. Its insistence on challenging your preconceptions is its best selling point as it perfectly relates to the opposition of traditionalists of any new way of looking at the beautiful game. It not only explains what xG is and how its used, only with xA - but also details how clubs are using the data to great effect. If you want to be challenged, learn something new or just love football books - pick this up.\" \u003c\/em\u003e- Amazon Review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“A great read” – \u003c\/em\u003eDavid Jones (Sky Sports presenter).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eThe Author\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eJames Tippett started his career as a freelance Football Analyst at Smartodds, a betting consultancy highly skilled in the science of predicting match outcomes.

His son, Young Tom, arguably an even more prodigious talent than his father, was a golfing genius, the Tiger Woods of his era, who at 17 became the youngest player, to this day, to win the Open Championship. He then went on to win it four times in a row, an unprecedented achievement. On one occasion, father and son fought it out at the last hole of the Championship before the son finally triumphed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut then came the pivotal day that would change their lives forever, the death of Young Tom’s wife and unborn child.
