NewEraClub - how a new boss reshapes your club, measured

For Premier League (and top-five-European-league) supporters whose team has just hired a new manager, a per-club "manager era" dashboard tracking new signings, formation changes, youth debuts and win-rate/xG deltas against the previous boss's tenure so fans can size up whether their own club's next change is coming.

Target user

Premier League supporters whose favorite club has just changed managers

Features
  • Era-vs-era stat deltas (wins, xG, xGA, set-piece conversion) for last 5, 15 and all games
  • Auto-detected formation tracker per match with visual change-log
  • New-signing pipeline tied to the new boss (transfers in/out during tenure)
  • Youth breakthrough spotlight listing academy grads in matchday squads
Why now

Silva's surprise Benfica move and Arbeloa's three-year Fulham appointment exemplifies the in-season managerial churn that drives five or six PL fans into premature judgment each summer, and there is no app framing data around the manager rather than the club.

Demand
5/10

Arbeloa/Silva moves drew mainstream BBC/Sky/TalkSport coverage and fan reactions, but PL fans already get xG, lineups and manager data via free official PL app, FPL dashboards, Sofascore and FBref — no evidence of an unmet demand for a manager-framed dashboard.Fulham appoint Arbeloa as Silva's successor - BBCPremier League xG Stats & Expected Goals Table 25/26

Whitespace
3/10

Crowded by established free/paid analytics (FBref, Understat, Sofascore, Fotmob, FootyStats, xgstat.com) that already attribute xG and form to managers; 'manager-framed view' is thin differentiator on top of commoditised data.FootyStats vs Understat — footyappsPremier League xG Stats & Expected Goals Table 25/26

Monetization
4/10

FootyStats proves some WTP in football analytics, but the bulk of competitor data (FBref, Understat, official PL app) is free, and a per-club novelty product has weak precedent for sustained subscription conversion.FootyStats Premium & VIP - Make More Money From FootballIs FootyStats Premium Worth It? A Detailed Review

Longevity
6/10

PL managerial churn is perennial (several sackings per season) so supply of eras is steady, but traffic peaks only at hire/fire moments, capping retention outside 4-6 week transfer/sacking windows.English Premier League Managerial Changes for the 2025-26 Season

Feasibility
6/10

Buildable with public data (FBref scraping, API-Football, Understat) plus lineup feeds, but formation attribution to manager and reliable per-era xG splits require careful modelling; Opta-tier licensing is expensive if you avoid scraping.FootyStats vs Understat — footyapps
