Takeaways

Assessing the performance and potential value of wingers in the Championship requires using player evaluation models.

Finding appropriate players to replace key wingers is crucial for teams in the Championship.

The financial accessibility of players is an important factor to consider in the transfer market.

Young players who have not yet had a major breakout can be valuable targets for mid-level EPL or EFL Championship teams.

The performance and contributions of wingers can vary depending on the role they are asked to play within a team's structure. There are several promising wingers in the Championship, including Johnathan Rowe, Morgan Whittaker, Tom Fellows and Dan James.

Scouting and evaluating players based on their character and mentality is crucial in determining their potential for success.

An adjusted league table based on the difficulty of opponents and home/away fixtures can provide a different perspective on team performances.

Leeds United and Sunderland have been impressive teams in the Championship so far.

Leeds United's Matteo Joseph and Manor Solomon from Tottenham (if he joins Leeds United) are players to watch out for.

About the Podcast

A.I. In Football
Recruitment Decisions, Done Properly.
AI in Football: Recruitment Decisions, Done Properly is a practical podcast about how football clubs make better recruitment decisions in an AI world — without the hype.

We don’t chase novelty tools. We focus on the thinking and structure that makes any tool useful: clear role briefs, behaviours over labels, constraints and trade-offs, repeatable shortlisting, and decision review that actually improves the process.

Each episode gives you something you can use:

- Role Definition Templates (behaviour-based, not position labels)

- Question sets that lead to better shortlists

- Meeting Structures that stop recruitment becoming a persuasion contest

- Simple Ways to Stress-Test Decisions (“what would make this wrong?”)

- How AI Fits Safely: drafting, checking, standardising outputs — never replacing judgement

If you work in recruitment, scouting, analysis, coaching, or you’re aiming to, this show is for you. Clarity First. Tools Second.

I'm a very approachable obsessive learner who is always interested in the stories of others, and how that information and experience can be used to help others move the needle of their life in a positive direction.

As a result of the work I do adults and younger people understand the importance of being an active participant in their own health.

The result of this is we at Elevate Health Chiropractic and Wellbeing are putting better educated individuals into the community who are making better health decisions for themselves and those they care for the most.
They move better, they eat better, they think better.

They Feel Better.

We are always looking to work with and help individuals and organisations who value their own health, that of their family, or their staff high enough to take that next step with Elevate Health, Chiropractic and Wellbeing.
