Scouting Report: Exeter City FC

THREAD: Short analysis recently completed in my spare time on the @EFL focusing on @OfficialECFC and how you might go about reducing the threat of the leagues then most potent attacking threat

Started simply with an analysis of their last 6 goals scored, and statistical analysis to see how they stack up across the league. Focussing initially on their strengths. Data/ Video source — @Wyscout

Next moved onto their top goalscorer — Ryan Bowman, his last 6 goals clipped and analysed to observe any particular trends/ goalscoring patterns to prepare for. Stats to potentially back this up.

Next is a quick case study on sides who have managed to stifle Exeter’s output (particularly their xG) — comparing trends to season AVGs to try and observe a game plan.

I’ve then picked out a focus for the presentation, an area of key importance to consider — this case, limiting chances from crosses.

Bit of general info/ knowledge transfer that might be of interest to the coaching staff. Utilising this brilliant vis from Jon Ollington. Potentially leading to a coaching focus to influence the periodisation/ subsequent session planning.

And finally 3 areas of key focus moving forward, keeping things short, sharp and hopefully to the point to inform

Feedback welcome! small part of a weekly opposition report/ pre match pres. interested in other ways coaches like to ingest pre match material!
