The Mailbag: A Stats Special

Under The Abbey Stand

We’ve got something slightly different for the second mailbag of the season. You might have noticed our new monthly column for this season ‘Get Your Stats Right’, written by the brilliant Ben Griffis, a United fan based over in Washington DC. We thought we’d get to know Ben a bit better and invited him on a podcast to talk about all the data and numbers behind the U’s including: how well has Nlundulu performed so far? Will Korey Smith’s numbers improve? And what hope do the underlying numbers give United’s survival chances?

If you want to check out Ben’s models and play around to find your own interesting stats to back up a theory, you can find him at:
