Why?
You might be asking yourself, ‘Why do you need to analyse Career Mode?’
Well, I suppose I don’t really. I do want to, though. If you’ve already taken a look around the site you’ll see my passion for career mode is clear. One of my other passions is analysis. I’m rarely happier than when I’m crunching numbers, solving problems or discovering some new insight. So combining these two things just makes sense for me.
However, doing this would still be pointless if it’s not useful for you guys. Luckily, I really think it is. FIFA is now hugely popular, as is Career Mode, this has given rise to a lot of people giving their opinions on how to play the game and how to get them best out of it. I don’t have any problem with this, in fact many of them are great resources. I do however draw the line at regurgitated opinions and anecdotal evidence.
This is why I felt like an analysis section would be a good addition to my site. There are plenty of opinions, myths and anecdotes out there, I’d like to be able to prove or disprove them using data. So what you can expect from this part of the site is data analysis and graphs. It might be a little heavy for some of you, but I will use what is learned here to inform my other guides and blogs.
