Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Simon Darwen’s narration is nothing short of stellar; his pacing keeps you hooked throughout the 9 hours and 46 minutes. His ability to articulate complex statistical concepts with ease makes Expected Goals not only accessible but also engaging. The narrative flows smoothly, blending historical context with modern analysis. However, there are occasional pauses that feel a bit jarring, pulling the listener out of the flow. Despite this minor critique, Smith’s writing is compelling and Darwen’s performance elevates it to a top-tier audiobook experience. For those looking to understand how data shapes contemporary football, this is an indispensable guide.
