Yes I saw that and well not up with the salaries in the UK but $28k or thereabouts miniimum wage levesl here. Not going to buy you much data analysis.
Hardly likely to get you a PHD out of Stanford or MIT. Or in the UK Oxbrdige. In Silicon Valley they are paying a million dollars a year for AI knowledge.
I know what I would do.
Also did not see that in the job descripton look to me must analysis of opponents etc.not transfer targets-though could be wrong..
Bloom and his partner at Brigton are in that business so I am presuming they have set the system up themselves and have organized tthat part of the club with the necesssary support staff. How direclty they are involved I have no idea.
Again they are punching above their weight Brighton that is. And I am pretty sure that Potter is not pulling the strings on incomings buying everyoen he knows.
"The Data Sets you Free"
I see that they have a Twitter feed and here is some data on Ryan Longman. Its callled Albion Analytics-- City can join it for 5 quid a month not including VAT of course:

Don't you think they already do that and how can you say he's not very good ? Docherty, Macloughlin, Longman, Tyler Smith..........
Usual city negativity that’s all
I always think Lee Darnbrough gets a bad rap, he's brought in some decent players on a shoestring budget. I wonder what he could do with more cash.
I hope that if he was given 1.7 million he could find a Demari Gray (steal of the season)
I think he’s actually done far better with no money, than he did when he did have some.
And if true, you think the Japanese guy or the one from Lazio will be fitting into our wage structure...?
Absolutey I dont know. But it would be nice to know. Maybe Urika you can tell me how we select our Targets. I genuinely would like to know. But gotta say a fair few of our signings come from the " I have worked with that player before school". And given the rumors the new potential owner and team are potenttally in the same mold.
Thanks for your reply
The guy from Lazio was never on and Morita is apparently on similar money to our lot.
We're supposed to be after Fenerbarche's right back Tisserand now. On twitter they're taking the piss out of Acun about how many of their players we're linked with. 
I think he's also less unilaterally responsible for transfers than people make out. We have a Chief Scout who plays a big part too and completely goes under the radar, no one ever talks about him. He appeared on a podcast a while ago and talked a bit about the process City use for transfers. I found it really interesting.
I think people just get over excited about analytics. Seems to be the cool thing lately. Just do analytics and you can be the next Brentford/Brighton. Those Americans wanted to buy Bradford and take them up the league using analytics, except they had no idea how to buy a club and got laughed out of town.
