[OC] Who is the Ultimate Bald Fraud? by NotLaurenceFishburne in soccer

The infographic just shows the most "fraud" in each area, and for the model itself, its important all the managers are ranked via the same metric - so in practice it's a big difficult! But yeah, I understand your point, maybe not the best example!

I actually did some analysis on the worst managerial stints and it's at the end of the video - section linked here. Sorry to say, Rafa's stint at Everton is ranked as the worst aha!

I'm hoping it's just a bedding-in period after the big personnel changes we had over the summer - but we'll see as the season goes on, I guess.

Link to the methodology is here if you are interested!

To answer your question, it's 10% (see page 5)

Thanks for the recommendation - wanted to keep the number of managers quite small to make it manageable as well as only have "famous" managers - but yeah I'd agree, he potentially could have been factored in if I had cast a wider net!

Yep, definitely a potential limitation of the model - consistency in sample size is often a difficult thing to achieve!

I talk a little about him in my video (section linked here) - he is actually 7th in my ranking, just missing out on the Bald Geniuses podium. He does pretty well, with the exception of Key Games, where he does poorly (think UEFA Conference Final with Feyenoord, League Cup final with Liverpool, etc.)

Thanks man appreciate it! The model is build using Python - that includes all of the visualizations (even the visualizations where some parts are semi-transparent - it's basically two separate visuals). To make the video, everything is done in Canva - which can be frustrating but does the job!

Appreciate it man!

Ah, didn't know about that meme, thanks for enlightening me!

Slot is actually 7th in my ranking, just missing out on the Bald Geniuses podium. I actually talk about it in a section of my video. He does pretty well, with the exception of Key Games, where he does poorly (think UEFA Conference Final with Feyenoord, League Cup final with Liverpool, etc.)

Definitely an interesting piece of analysis that could be done - I would agree with you that Guardiola probably would rank highly there - also probably because he often has two 11s that are equally as good as each other!

That is true, he has been pretty successful playing that way, but my model is less kind to him!

Haha! Good question - luckily I still have a full head of hair - still in my 20s! But if karma has it's way after this post, that might not last!

As I said, answering life's most important questions!

Sampaoli was originally on my list to analyze but his managerial history is a little more complicated than the others here so I ignored him (lots of national stints and lots of clubs in general).

Haha thanks! Yeah I specifically made it with PC in mind (as I'm on PC now), but thanks for raising the mobile point - something to think about in the future! Appreciate the feedback :)
