In \u003ci\u003eThe Numbers Game\u003c\/i\u003e, Chris Anderson, a former professional goalkeeper turned soccer statistics guru, teams up with behavioral analyst David Sally to uncover the numbers that really matter when it comes to predicting a winner. Investigating basic but profound questions--How valuable are corners? Which goal matters most? Is possession really nine-tenths of the law? How should a player's value be judged?--they deliver an incisive, revolutionary new way of watching and understanding soccer.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Numbers Game: Why Everything You Know About Soccer Is Wrong | Chris Anderson | Paperback | 9780143124566 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks I 1790397","offer_id":68005339070616,"sku":"1790397","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71auD9QYEiL.jpg?v=1794705472","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/numbers-game-why-everything-you-know-about-soccer-is-wrong","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
