- Title
EQUILIBRIUM TEAM SELECTION IN FOOTBALL UNDER WIN OR PROFIT MAXIMISATION.
- Authors
HAUGEN, KJETIL K.
- Abstract
This article applies mathematical methods to investigating (extremely) simplified versions of the team selection problem for football managers. The team selection problem -- obviously a game problem -- is analysed game theoretically, but some funny results of a combinatorial nature are also added. In general, the findings indicate that the problem of selecting a football team is a very demanding task. Still, a simple comparison between win and profit maximising game models indicate surprising complexity in game prediction.
