Like the La Liga article this week I'll be taking a look at some mid-table maidens and muppets. And yes, I'm breaking down this week and offering up some analysis on Manchester United. I've delayed long enough I guess so I'll take a peak at them along with Tottenham, Crystal Palace, West Brom, Stoke City,... Continue Reading →
Being mid-table - a glass half-full - or a glass half-empty? Still just six weeks in, but there are trends that can be offered with six games, so for this week's focus I'll look in on Rayo Vallecano, Almeria (who I looked at in Week 3 also), and Granada. Respectively those teams are 9th, 10th,... Continue Reading →
If you've read these two previous articles, Expected Wins and Expected Wins 2, you know I look at how teams perform, on average, (win, lose, or draw) with respect to my primary data collection points for Possession with Purpose. What will be added, in Version 3 (V3), will be a compare and contrast between all the... Continue Reading →
This article was originally posted very early in the Major League Soccer season of 2014, on a different site, that site has closed so I am reposting it here to sustain the history of Expected Wins. Over the two and a half years I've been developing Possession with Purpose you've heard me go on about... Continue Reading →
Perhaps still too early? I don't think so - at least not with who's the best - clearly FC Bayern Munchen are firing on all cylinders. So............ What to do?

For most Manchester United, AGAIN, probably made most of the Headlines - and AGAIN - I'll blow them off in my weekly update - kinda like Leicester City did! Imagine dropping four goals in the second half against Leicester City - can you Adam and Eve it??? What on earth is going on at Man United?... Continue Reading →
Twenty eight games in - the screws are tightening and the pucker factor hit the Vancouver Whitecaps big time; see here: Valeri's vicious volley from Villafana vanquishes Vancouver. For me though, the real story is how the tables have turned in Philadelphia - I'll get to that in just a wee bit - for now here's... Continue Reading →
Well, it's started - the World Cup of League Football for most; at least in my eyes that is. Who's going to come out on top and who's not? Of course these teams are the best of the best (so-to-speak) and that means I won't be using words/phrases like sucks, bottom dweller, or some other... Continue Reading →
Most of the Headlines went to Manchester United crushing a helpless Queens Park Rangers this past week and rightly so, I suppose, given how poorly Man U has played this last year or so. Anything good happening to United usually spells trouble for others in the English Premier League. For me though, I'm taking my... Continue Reading →
