Same with Brighton and Brentford.
The problem where the model breaks down slightly is they sell their players for top dollar and they are looking to replace players to make the squad have one goal in mind
To get to 50 points.....
The very top teams are looking at players that will win them the title and CL places.
Thats not the goal of the 3 B's, their goal is to be as successful as possible given their finite resources.
(Moneyball)
Thats why the 3 B's have been able to do well because they have been able to scoop up players the top teams deem not quite good enough to dominate the league.
These are still excellent players and they have superb analysis. You dont run a successful betting syndicate by having s**t analysis. You have analysis that others dont have.
That said they may be topping out right now because of resources. They cant afford the wages and fees of the top clubs.
