How to Become a Football Analyst

[@andrew07jeff]

People usually won't share this kind of information as it creates further competition for your success. I truly appreciate your efforts mate. Hopefully our paths converge in the future

[@FootballMeta]

Thanks mate!

[@timothywanjohi2604]

True, asked someone this they completely ignored me

[@alun1038]

It makes sense that you’re a full time analyst, no wonder the quality of your videos have been insanely good even when you had less than 10K subs

[@fishyfish6510]

I hope Football Meta can become a manager in the future and we can have a video, " How to get started as a football manager "

[@kubolor1234]

I did not expect to hear "I grew up in Northern Italy."

[@FootballMeta]

Yeah bit of a curveball lol

[@damianspence]

The way he says the names of Italian players is a dead giveaway 😂 I thought the first step was going to be "Make sure you know English"

[@Gaaei]

I’m guessing you grew up supporting ATALANTA?

[@n0body550]

You should use single quotation marks when paraphrasing a quote

[@nevemanevem]

My dream is became a manager at a highest level. The only fear about it I'll never be a professional player, tbh I don't really know that would affect my chances. Now I am 18 and I am thinking about the grassroots course as soon as possible but the Hungarian Football Federation is awful in this regard. Ever since I decided that I'll be a manager, I started to analyse games and think a lot about tactics and the topic and because of that my game understandance and intelligence has developed a lot. Your story is instructive and I can't wait to start my journey 😄

[@TiisetsoMashego]

Good luck on your journey!👍 Maybe one day you will be the head coach of the Hungarian national football team

[@nevemanevem]

@@TiisetsoMashego Would be a dream ❤️

[@stevesrover]

Well done! Your videos have provided great insight to this grassroots youth coach. Loved this more personal video and the penny dropped why you’re so adept as pronouncing foreign team names. Anyway, really fascinating stuff and well done on hitting 100,000 subs.

[@FootballMeta]

Thanks mate, glad to hear you enjoyed the video

[@rassdagoat518]

I’ve always been into analyzing football and your channel is one of the only ones that I actually feel like communicates the points across clearly so anybody can understand it.

[@nelty0987654321]

Loved the video. Makes sense why your videos are so good lol This was the video I needed years ago when I couldn't play anymore but was still wanting to be involved in football. I lost a lot of passion for football since then but coming across your videos has rekindled that love. Best of luck to you

[@okaymate-]

absoloutely class mate, you deserve success in the future of football analysis etc. you have a brilliant talent my friend

[@FootballMeta]

Thank you mate

[@dwiss2556]

This finally explains so much about the quality of your content. I had mistaken you for the longest time as just another football enthusiast with 'an opinion' that seemed to be pretty spot on - sharing your background makes it all fall into place now. You have been my greatest source of filling my lack of understanding the finer details while keeping wording and explanations on a very to-the-ground level. Thank you!

[@ahxMad]

The video quality and in-depth knowledge makes sense now

[@ritik7515]

your videos made me see matches in a tactical way and that has also helped me on the pitch as well thank you,you deserve more subscribers

[@opinionatortv6457]

This has been marinating in my mind for a while now and I think with this video amongst other signs, I think I have the confidence to go for it

[@FootballMeta]

Go for it man! you won't regret it

[@stargalextr5400]

@FootballMeta I'm a data analytics UG student who has recently discovered this world of football, and I do have skills in both tech and design, which I've used as a freelancer. Your videos were the ones which help me learn football from different perspectives, and also opening up a world where I can utilise my skills to the max. While we don't have many football clubs as far as I've seen in India, I do hope to do some analysis as a project one day for sure in some sport, preferably football, badminton or cricket, as a side project for my own gratification and experience.

[@stevensirrell517]

This was really helpful. I've always wanted to be a scout but match analysis has become more and more appealing. I'd like to do both. I'm moving to Slovenia next month and I'm hoping the lower profile of teams will give me an entry point to start doing this.

[@FootballMeta]

most professional clubs have whole offices for analysts now, so I feel it's a job that gets "easier" the more you progress.. But when starting out and you have to film, analyse and edit everything it takes ages

[@shuyaochen2249]

Analyst here too. "Your friend won't invite you to watch football match again" is so true hahaha. My friends repeat Morata's offside memes to make jokes every match. Then I tried so hard to explain why Morata is actually a good striker and crucial to both Atletico and Spain based on his goal vs xG, his heatmap, and his playing styles, then they just "Oh, well....OK, but he still offside."

I'm starting to study data analysis, and been seeing this kind of analysis (the ones that u make here in your channel) with my eyes full of passion, as football has been my favorite sport since ever. This video brought to me some inspiration. Going to try out and create some material for local clubs here in Brazil, I feel like we can have more of this analysis herel, even with smaller clubs (today, we see it only in the biggest clubs, Serie A/B, wich makes me wonder: why?). Thank you for that!

the text messages to and from the Local Clubs.... hilarious...the whole video has subtle jokes, thanks for making us laugh while inspiring other analysts ans general enthusiasts at large. i do have a question that have always bothered me for a while now, seeing how the teams train during practice sessions using cones and routines, how is the final 11 selected, is this also metric based or there are other ideas or analytics behind it, like historical matches...?

This is making me realize I shouldn’t have given up on this career path :(

[@marcore3767]

I would never aspected to hear of vinicio espinal, legend of the amazing 2010 Portogruaro Summaga that won the serie C and brought the team in the cadett division for the first (and only?) time in the history. This year the new society ASD Portogruaro will play in 4th division. The team has been disassembled and mounted by new after the retrocession of the previous year. They have been fished out from eccellenza as best retrocessed. The new coach Mr. De Mozzi, who won the league with Real Vicenza years ago and promise to play for win every Sunday. The serie d girone C has very good teams this year (clivense, treviso, cjarlins muzane) and will not be easy for Portogruaro to reach salvation. V.espinal always the best!

No way you're italian, bell'inglese, dall'accento non lo capivo. Is there any need of computer science in professional data analysis? Probably yes, but I think the software does most of the algorithm stuff right? I'm currently an electrical engineer student and I always wonder how could I apply myself in football related technologies. Any insight on that topic? What do you think could improve your workflow? Maybe a camera drone that does analytics in real time?

[@FootballMeta]

Absolutely! There's a reason why man city just hired a bunch of astrophysicists.. Data is, whether people like it or not, the future of football analysis, and so more and more people capable of interpreting data and creating their own algorithms will be increasingly sought after in clubs.. there's already a lot of cameras and software that automatically tracks players and match events, the big push now is to make that available at lower levels and leagues!

Here in Germany, you basically can’t become a professional coach, unless you weren’t a professional footballer. 😕

[@FootballMeta]

I don't understand why countries would do this.. It makes no sense to me, why not give everyone the opportunity to coach, and if you're good you can progress, if you're not then you won't. I don't see how making it so exclusive is beneficial

[@piergiorgioar-ch1269]

Hi mate. I am on the process and i can tell you that it's much harder in Italy than in your country. I have played for professional junior team and that doesn't give me a high score for the ranking to get access to the main courses. So that's why i checked on other countries' and i am pretty sure that courses are open in Germany. There should be no close number of applications. People like Julian Nagelsmann, who's had the same kind of experience as a footballer that i've had; or Domenico Tedesco, who's never played professionally or Ole Werner and many others, as the likes of Kohfeldt and Tuchel, didn't have a great and glorious past as a football player. Try to apply for one of the courses and you might get a chance. Wish you the very best!
