SailorFanTalk with the GOAT. And with that, the 2025 season comes to an end. Not quite, though it may feel like it for some fans. For the longest time we’ve been accustomed to SPL seasons ending around December, with the recent football calendar shift only coming into effect last season. After the highs of 24/25, this season has been underwhelming to most observers. Mixed Feelings For starters, we are out of the ACL Two, unable to replicate the high of reaching the final. This was despite drawing an easier group on paper, comprised of ASEAN sides. It was fair to consider the Sailors’ squad as one of the strongest in the group, especially after the acquisitions in the summer. Unfortunately, football rarely plays out the way we expect it to. Persib Bandung managed to improve their fortunes, finishing top after convincingly being the better side in most matches. We managed to earn 4 points against them but it was not enough as their imperious home form ensured their progress to the next round. It was a particularly tough pill to take considering the online banter that follows Persib everywhere they go, but we can take solace in our improved results against the Indonesian side. Our campaign was instead undone by our regional nemesis Bangkok United. 0 points out of 6 against our direct H2H rival was catastrophic, especially in the manner we lost the games. A single point/goal in those games would have seen us qualify ahead of them, which we belatedly managed to do in the Shopee Cup. In a funny turn of events, we have since signed Luka Adžić who scored the decisive goal in our home loss against the Bangkok Angels. Oh and a certain Kyoga Nakamura… Selangor was this group’s whipping boys, managing a solitary point against Bangkok away. This probably foreshadowed the weak showings of both clubs in MD-6. I had this to say in my previous article: Lion City Sailors beats Selangor. Bangkok United beats Persib Bandung. We brushed past the Malaysian side with relative ease, but the same could be said about Persib’s endeavours against Bangkok. It was not to be in the end, as we crashed out of the competition despite being level on points with Bangkok. Could we have done better than an early exit? Most definitely. But finishing on the same amount of points as last season is nothing to be ashamed of, as echoed by Bailey Wright on this Sports Minutes episode. The best we can do now is channel this disappointment towards future success, and that starts with the Singapore Cup final on the horizon. Allez Maxime The future successes will have to be achieved without our magician Maxime Lestienne, who left the Sailors after a fruitful 4 years. This inevitable goodbye was tough to take, especially as Max has been around for the majority of LCS’ history. I am sure many fans came to support the Sailors partly because of his excellence. I recall posting a Maxime Lestienne rap as part of my giveaway entry for our away day against Jeonbuk. That video has since been relegated to the archives of internet history. But it also led to me writing my first SailorFanTalk article back in 2023. Anyway, it is evident that Maxime has left a huge impact on everyone involved with the club. It was heartwarming to see the reception he received in his final game, with a tifo revealed before kickoff, an honour befitting of our legend. Truth be told, the game was rather uneventful in retrospect, with an early goal from Shawal taking the sting out of the two-legged tie. It would have been romantic to see Maxime register a goal involvement, and the Belgian had the best chance of the game with a penalty in the second half. Alas, he fluffed his Panenka attempt. It was indicative of his propensity to entertain, and ultimately the miss proved inconsequential. Maxime signed off with 70 goals and 97 assists, truly the best we’ve ever seen. Fans would have loved to see him continue playing till the end of the season, but given all that he has given to the Sailors over the years, it is hard to begrudge him his wish to spend more time with his family at home. It is time to look ahead and build on his legacy. We love you Maxime, we do! Mid-season Musings We are now at the most critical juncture of the season. Despite being 6 months in, the domestic league is in its relative infancy. Teams have only played 4-5 games, which means there is still 75% of the season to be decided. It is however blatantly obvious that only two teams are in contention to compete for the title, which just so happens to be the Cup final teams as well. Detractors may complain about LCS and Tampines receiving byes into the semis, but it was clear for all to see the increasing gap in quality between them and the rest of the league. Whoever wins the Cup will carry great confidence into the rest of the domestic season. For Tampines, it would embolden them on the great run of form they have been on, which includes impressive results in the ACL Two. For LCS, victory will capture the narrative and provide optimism for the games to come. Another cause for optimism is the Shopee Cup, where we still have a chance of qualification to the next round. Our main obstacle is ​​Nam Định FC, who we are due to face in our next away game. As long as we win both our final two games, we should be able to finish in second. After all, their final fixture is against the inevitable JDT. There are also possible sanctions against JDT that could be in the picture soon… That being said, we did lose 5-0 against our previous Vietnamese opponent CAHN last season. It will not be an easy away day, but with the squad

The SPL season finally starts in a few days with the Community Shield, and just like most teams in the SPL, the SailorFanTalk squad has had a bit of a revamp too, with several writers, editors, and interviewers coming onboard. To kick off the SPL season, I invited each of our new writers to weigh in with their own SPL preview, including a short writeup discussing each team and their end-of-season SPL table prediction. Let’s hear what Ernest, Joseph Chin, Bryan, and Reuben have to say! Ernest The 25/26 season will witness many firsts, none more prominent than the foreigner matchday quota being increased to 7. This leaves 4 starting spots for our local players, and it remains to be seen how this change will impact the league and National Team set up. That being said, taking a look at how the squads are shaping up, we can make an educated guess as to how the season will pan out. Below are my thoughts, in the order of my predicted 25/26 table: 1st: Lion City Sailors FC No surprises here. The team with the most resources are likely to run away with the title, perhaps with an even bigger gap to the nearest challenger. The marquee signing on everyone’s radar is Anderson Lopes. His CV trumps most, having been the top scorer in J1 for the past 2 seasons and helping Yokohama F. Marinos to reach the 2024 ACL final. He would likely repeat his scoring antics in Singapore, but I do not foresee Tomoyuki Doi’s frankly ridiculous golden boot record being broken any time soon. LCS are less reliant on a focal centre forward to score goals, and we could well see Lopes deployed on the wings at times (with a certain Maxime Lestienne leaving in January as things stand). He can also rotate with Lennart and Shawal, more than capable of wrecking havoc in the league. We are competing on multiple fronts and minutes will inevitably have to be shared. The signing that really excites me is Tsiy Ndenge. It is acknowledged that football games are won and lost in the midfield. With Ndenge’s arrival, we have secured a player profile that promises to be game-changing. A quick google search of his name will pull up YouTube highlight reels of his time at Grasshopper Club Zurich. Capable of performing multiple roles, the German has played down Pogba comparisons. I am sure we will be proud of having our very own Ndenge. LCS should aim to be the best defence in the league again, and let our attacking talents do their thing. An expected professional job, nothing less. 2nd: Geylang International FC No Doi, no problem. Despite losing their scoring talisman, Geylang have strengthened on multiple fronts, and will likely benefit from their Eastern rivals having a transitional year. Noor Ali’s team have gone from strength to strength, finishing a respectable 3rd last season, something that has not been achieved by the club for some time now. The reason I see them pipping Tampines this year? The Eagles have chosen to recruit tried-and-tested SPL stalwarts who are upgrades on their previous personnel (bar the magnificent Doi). In comes Riku Fukashiro, Shodai Yokoyama, Kaisei Ogawa and Shuhei Hoshino. Sure, they are not capable of scoring 44 league goals each, but with the new foreigner rule in place the team should see an increase in quality on the pitch. Geylang will surely benefit from a shorter season, no continental nor regional football to contend with. Their thin squad will likely survive the season and mark an improvement on last season. 3rd: BG Tampines Rovers FC Perhaps I’m bold for predicting a bronze medal for Tampines, which essentially constitutes another trophyless season for them. Yes, LCS are sweeping the domestic treble. But why third? Transitions rarely go well at the start, and losing their head coach and marquee foreigners will hurt immediately. Even the most fervent of haters will acknowledge Gavin Lee is one of Singapore’s best coaches. Reappointing Akbar Nawas seems to be taking a few steps backward. Add to the unsavoury mix the foreign core being dismantled and I foresee a long season ahead for the Stags. Tampines really trailed off during the new year, and that was after their unceremonious ACL2 elimination. With the added distraction of the ACC Club Championship –  affectionately known as the Shopee Cup, this new squad will likely struggle to perform right out the blocks. Is my bias speaking against them? Probably. But logic dictates fundamental changes will take some getting used to, and by the time this happens the other 2 clubs would have pulled clear. Trent Buhagiar would be a familiar name to A-League observers, and will definitely add a new dimension to their fresh attack with his pace and dynamism. Looking elsewhere, they have recruited from the Japanese football ecosystem to plug the gaps left by Seia, Kyoga and Milos. Quality players they might be and become, but the multitude of factors mentioned above will contribute to their slight regression this year. 4th: Albirex Niigata (S) It was not too long ago that the Japanese feeder club dominated Singaporean football. Then they went “local” and went through a slump and drop in standards, even culminating in the dismissal of the popular Kazuaki Yoshinaga. It has been an entire season since, the dust has settled, and the foreign outfit has learnt the effects of parity.  The additional foreign starting spot next season should provide a welcome boost to the six-time SPL champions, who have once again recruited from Japanese outfits. This formula has worked wonders for them throughout their prolific stint in Singaporean football, and the White Swans seem to be one of the teams that would benefit most from the rule changes. A competitive Albirex can only be a good thing for the league. 5th: Tanjong Pagar United FC Disclaimer: this preview was written after Aaron Evans’ feature on Sports Minutes. He spoke of the Jaguars’ ambitions to finish second

About 1.5 years ago, after the 2023 SPL season ended, Eddy and I had a conversation about a somewhat ambitious project. We were both frustrated at the lack of publicly available SPL statistics, and it seemed like the only way to fix this was to do it ourselves. The SPL statistics page still shows nothing more than a string of error code, and while we were somewhat certain that some SPL clubs had access to data, that was meant for performance analysis and of no use to fans because it was not publicly available. So with our non-existent coding skills and endless desire to watch football, we created our own spreadsheet and started manually tracking stats for every single SPL game in the 2024/25 season, for use in SailorFanTalk articles. After 13 months (and countless hours) of scouring through match replays and Sofascore data to manually input SPL stats, we now have a full data set of the league season, and in conjunction with the SPL Awards Night happening tonight, we thought it would be appropriate to do an end-of-season review in the form of handing out our own ‘Awards’ to deserving teams and players, based on the 2024/25 SPL statistics. Team Awards The Justice Table We first talked about the Justice Table back in my mid-season review article, where we use raw xG data to carry out simulations of match outcomes and assign expected points to each team in each game. After all 32 games, BG Tampines Rovers emerges on top of our Justice Table, 8.13 points ahead of Lion City Sailors. AIA Justice Table League Winner – BG Tampines Rovers POLAR MINERAL WATER Best Defence (least xG conceded) –BG Tampines Rovers SINGAPORE POOLS Best Attack (highest xG) – Lion City Sailors (Sponsors chosen at random to reflect SPL Awards Night as closely as we could hehe) Set-Piece Specialists Set pieces are very much a critical component of the modern game, with set piece coaches a common sight at many professional clubs. The following teams were able to make the most of their set piece routines. 1. BG Tampines Rovers 2. Geylang International 3. Lion City Sailors/ Balestier Khalsa Youth Development – Most U21 Players Played in SPL Youth development is critical to the success of the football ecosystem in any country, and the following teams promoted the most players from their U21 team into the first team (either due to their trust in youth or lack of funds/squad depth, I’m not judging). 1. Tanjong Pagar 2. Geylang International 3. Lion City Sailors Individual Awards The following section covers the top performers on several key attacking metrics, most of which are self-explanatory, as well as the top shot stoppers in the league this season. Most Goal Contributions (Goals + Assists) per 90min (min. 180 mins played) 1. Tomoyuki Doi (Geylang International) 2. Lennart Thy (Lion City Sailors) 3. Maxime Lestienne (Lion City Sailors) Talisman (Highest % involvement in the Team’s Goals) These players have been key to their team’s success this season, having scored or assisted the highest percentage of goals scored by the team. 1. Tomoyuki Doi (Geylang International) 2. Dejan Racic (Hougang United) 3. Shingo Nakano (Albirex Niigata Singapore) Highest xG per 90min (min. 180 min played) In a season where Tomoyuki Doi seemingly broke the xG model by scoring hat-tricks for fun, a couple of other players actually generated a more significant goal threat for their team compared to Doi. (on a side note, I fully expect Doi’s goal tally to revert to the mean next season ahead of his rumoured move to Thai League 1) 1. Lennart Thy (Lion City Sailors) 2. Kodai Tanaka (Balestier Khalsa) 3. Tomoyuki Doi (Geylang International) Highest xG per Shot (min 10 shots) Many surprising names on the list, but these players generated the highest average xG for each of their shots, indicating their propensity to get into high quality goalscoring positions. 1. Hazzuwan Halim (Hougang United) 2. Akram Azman (Lion City Sailors) 3. Abdul Rasaq (Lion City Sailors) Highest % Shots on Target (min 10 shots) Again, several interesting names. These players managed to get most of their shots on target instead of blasting them into the swimming pool, forcing the opposing keeper to at least make the save. 1. Taufik Suparno (BG Tampines Rovers) 2. Shakir Hamzah (Geylang International) 3. Ismail Sassi (Balestier Khalsa) Best Shot-Stopper (among keepers with at least 5 games played) The Goals Conceded/xGOT stat acts as a measure of a keeper’s shot stopping skills. Expected Goals on Target (xGOT) is slightly different from the xG. A xGOT value is only assigned to shots that are on target, and the value is largely based on the location of the goal where the shot ended up at. A shot with 0.8 xGOT basically means that the shot ends up as a goal 80% of the time, while the keeper saves it 20% of the time. A summation of xGOT across all the shots would give a number which represents the number of goals an average keeper would concede over that series of shots, and a ratio of Actual Goals Conceded/Cumulative xGOT then provides a metric to judge if a keeper is over or under performing. A Goals Conceded/xGOT ratio of <1 would mean that the keeper conceded less goals than the average keeper facing the same type of shots. 1. Kristijan Naumovski (Brunei DPMM) 2. Izwan Mahbud (Lion City Sailors) 3. Haimie Nyaring (Brunei DPMM) Moments This section is dedicated to the most memorable games and moments throughout the 2024/25 season, many of which coincidentally involve Balestier Khalsa and their keeper Hafiz Ahmad. Biggest xG Miss In the 2024/25 season, the highest xG shot that did not result in a goal was by Obren Kljajic, in the 17th minute of the game between Lion City Sailors and Balestier Khalsa on 14th May 2025. After Bart’s freekick came off the crossbar, Balestier keeper Hafiz Ahmad was already lying on the ground, presenting Obren with an open

Just as we are about to embark on the 2nd half of the 2024/25 SPL season, I thought it would be a good opportunity to do a mid-season statistical review of Sailors’ performances so far, and attempt to provide some insights into what we can expect in the 2nd half of the season. If you have read recent SFT articles, you would have realized that Eddy and I have been manually tracking SPL stats from this season (because nobody else seems to be doing it). Now that we have half a season worth of data, we can attempt to draw some meaningful conclusions from this data set through developing a ‘Justice Table’. (Editor’s note: Please note also that xG stats are taken from sofascore.com – Chin Heng painstakingly tracks them every game to come up with this table) Justice Table – Simi Lai Eh? Football is a low-scoring, high-variance game where the better team doesn’t always win. There is a lot of luck involved in each game, so the actual SPL table contains plenty of ‘noise’. Unlucky finishing, a bad offside call, or an unfortunate deflection all have an impact on the actual result of a game. What we attempt to do with the Justice Table is to remove such variance from the equation and find out what the league table would look like in a world where teams were ranked based on their performances alone. Methodology As we demonstrated in earlier articles, it is possible to do a Monte Carlo Simulation of each match using raw xG data of each shot that occurred in the game. In order to generate a Justice Table from xG data: What is xG? xG is essentially just the probability of a goal being scored from a particular shot, hence using xG to generate a league table removes the element of luck from a result. In our last game against Tampines, Shawal scored from 2 chances of 0.04 and 0.12 xG respectively, allowing us to escape with a point. However, simulations showed that we were extremely lucky to get anything from the game, with Tampines winning 87.3% of simulations and a draw occurring only 10.2% of the time. On another day, those 2 Shawal chances could have gone wide or be saved by the keeper and we would now be level on points with Tampines. Note that there are some flaws in the xG metric, most notably that it ignores the game state. A team that scores a goal early on may choose to sit back and defend that lead, inevitably generating less xG for the rest of the game and conceding more xG, making the game appear closer than it actually was. The xG concept also assumes that all players have roughly the same finishing ability, and what differentiates a good striker from an average one is their ability to get themselves into positions of good xG quality in the first place. However, this model still passes the ‘eye test’ as we often expect to see better teams dominating a game by generating more and better-quality chances, which in turn accumulates higher xG and expected points to quantify their dominance. Results With the methodology outlined above, the 2024/25 mid-season Justice table looks like this: Some observations: Conclusion I think we can expect the title race to go all the way to the last few games of the season, with Tampines unfortunately being slight favourites despite being 2nd in the league right now. However, there are still a number of variables that could alter the equation for the 2nd half of the season: fatigue from continental games and the AFF championship, mid-season transfers, and squad depth could all play an important role in how the rest of the season shapes up. (Editor’s Note: An interesting point to note also is how Tampines makes use of the extra foreigner slot when Kyoga becomes Singaporean and thus frees up a slot. If they have the budget to get someone with true quality, things might be interesting) Hopefully, when 24th May 2025 rolls around, it will be the team in blue lifting the SPL trophy!

If you haven’t watched the video for Champions in Blue yet, here you go! Clubs working with artists to come up with songs is not a new phenomenon. When you think of club, and you think of song, your mind immediately goes to “You’ll Never Walk Alone“. It is perhaps the most famous example of an anthem being sung aloud by fans before games. That song is tied to Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund, and Celtic, among others, and I don’t know about you, even though I don’t support any of those clubs, hearing it sung out loud does send chills down my spine. In fact, that song is so tied to Liverpool’s identity that those very words of the title are written in wrought iron on the gates of Anfield Stadium. A Song Written Specifically For a Club However, of course, that song was written as a tune from a musical on Broadway, and so it wasn’t birthed as a football song. It wasn’t until Gerry and the Pacemakers (a Merseyside band) did a cover version in the 1960s that it became adopted by Liverpool as their anthem. So are there examples of songs written specifically for a club? Sure, there are. Let’s start right at home (and with a dash of Japan). Hougang Hools recorded “Hougang Sampai Mati“ (Malay for “Hougang Til’ I Die“) and the song has a lot of edge, with a super catchy chorus. Composed and performed by the fans, it combines rock, emotion, and a dash of humour. It is played during Hougang home games at the final whistle. Geylang International FC have “We Are the Mighty Eagles“. This was also performed by a fan called Remy, who describes himself as a new fan of the club. It is catchy in parts and just like Hougang Sampai Mati, you will hear it over the speakers at GIFC games. And then now on to Japan – Albirex Niigata have my personal favourite, “Believe”. I like the song so much I even left this comment there sometime back – Oops, please don’t lynch me, but it’s a proper rock track with anime vibes, mixed in with crowd chants to really give it that stadium feel. Albirex in Singapore of course use this song as well, playing it at their home games to get the atmosphere going. It’s fair to say that music has long had that power to get the crowd excited and hyped up for a game. It can also be a tremendous bonding tool, uniting a bunch of strangers in song. The Crew had thus long thought about writing a song, but we were short on inspiration. If you ever meet me in person, I’d be happy to show you some early drafts we came up with, which pale in comparison to “Champions in Blue“. So how did this song come about? Let me tell the story from my POV. A Long Long Time Ago – There Was Brandon Khoo The title is not a dig at Brandon Khoo’s age. Though facts are facts, he is old. But this is an important section of the article. You’ll see. Before I talk about how the club approached me to discuss possibly getting a song done, I have to introduce yall to Brandon Khoo. Who is Brandon Khoo, you ask? Well click the link and find out! He’s basically Singapore’s best drummer la huh. When I first saw Brandon Khoo in the stands of a Sailors game sometime back, I remember thinking to myself that he looked really familiar. But I just couldn’t place his face. This would happen a few times. One day, I was scrolling through my tiktok feed when I came across a drumming livestream. This big ol’ dude was taking requests from people and providing drumming accompaniment to those requests. I would have scrolled past, but he hung a Lion City Sailors scarf on the wall, so I stayed. He would then also talk a bit about the song, chat a bit with his followers, etc. I found it very fascinating. It was like listening to a radio show, except the DJ not only put in the tunes, he would also drum along. Amazing. I spoke to him in the stands a few more times when I saw him at games. And all this time, I didn’t figure out the mystery of why he looked so familiar. Then one day it clicked – he used to be the drummer for Shirlyn + The UnXpected, a famous local band that did a lot of gigs around the pubs of Singapore. As a teenager that enjoyed listening to live music, I saw him around several times. It was so obvious yet it escaped me for so long. Brandon also was the drummer for many of the Mandopop tunes I grew up with. Brandon and I would get to know each other a lot better, and would bond over shared music taste. He called me an “old soul”, I didn’t reply because I felt it would be rude to point out it wasn’t just his soul that was old. We got along musically, and footballingly, and that’s all that matters. The stage was set for the next development. The Approach from the Club So after the abortive attempts at writing a song for the Crew, the club approached me 2 months ago (yes, all this was done in 2months). “Champions in Blue” did not exist 2 months ago. Let that sink in. A certain Brandon Khoo was in attendance as well. The club wanted a song that all Sailors fans could be proud of, something to rally us all. I’m not a songwriter and had previously only written one song before, so Brandon’s presence was obviously crucial. The club wanted Brandon to lead the project because not only is he a good musician, he is also a true fan, which makes it more meaningful. That, and also because of his extensive contacts from all across the

The ACL2 draw is upon us. I took it quite literally in the image for this article. It is an exciting time that some of us Sailors fans have been saving up our annual leave for. The ACL2 draw brings with it the glamour of an overseas tie in places as varied as Sydney, Manila, Zhejiang, and Hiroshima. The allure of a continental match doesn’t just bring with it a small dose of national pride, it also allows us to travel and experience different cultures, as can be seen from our previous trips to South Korea and Hong Kong, to name two examples. So who are we likely to draw? Should we be hoping to be saying Konnichiwa to friendly Japanese strangers, or are we much more likely to be saying sawadeekhrap? We answer that question in this article. What the Math Appears to Be Looking at the pots like that, it would seem that for any given team in Pot 1, Pot 2, and Pot 4, we have a 25% chance of drawing any of them, and a 0% chance of drawing anyone from Pot 3. However, there are some qualifiers that change the probability a little. Country Protection Now, let’s get the obvious out of the way, country protection rules means that we cannot draw Tampines Rovers in Pot 4. So that means automatically, on the surface it looks like the probability of drawing any of the Pot 4 teams goes from 25% to 33%, with Tampines out of the picture as we cannot draw them. However, there are still some qualifiers to talk about – still related to country protection. Given that LCS is in a Pot with Muangthong United, Kaya Iloilo and Lee Man, it also makes it more likely that we will draw Dynamic Herb Cebu or Eastern United from Pot 4, as compared to our chances of drawing Persib Bandung. I’ll try my best to explain this, but this is because we already have a team from HK and Philippines in our Pot. Thus, it is more likely that if another group has drawn Lee Man from Pot 3 for example, it cannot draw Eastern, thus increasing the chance for Eastern to be in other groups containing the Sailors. Country protection also comes to the fore when you notice that each of Pot 1, 2, and 3 have a Thai team. It makes it highly likely that we will draw a Thai team, so fans of Tom Yam and cheap massages, rejoice! S.O.S (A Call for Help, not the Outdated Tournament that We Somehow Still Participate In) Now, if you, like me, didn’t feel that all that made a lot of sense, then you just have to trust the code drawn up by one of my friends, Raghu, who will probably kill me for saying this, but he is a Research Fellow at the University of Oxford Department of Physics. He is probably much better at me at all these science-y, math-y stuff. Do check him out if you are interested in his papers such as “An elementary quantum network of entangled optical atomic clocks” and “Quantum amplification of mechanical oscillator motion“. So anyway, he spent an hour writing some code for me, and we thus have the probability table you see below of us drawing any of the opponents from each Pot. The Probability Table Putting all the assumptions and rules together, this is how likely we are to draw each opponent from each Pot. As you can see, our chances of meeting a Thai opponent are very high, while a trip to Indonesia for Pot 4 looks less likely than a trip to Cebu or Hong Kong. Conclusion Probability is one thing, but where’s the fun in following the science all the time? Footyrankings Draw Simulator – this is the link where you can have some fun simulating over and over again who we are likely to meet. I tried it and got this abomination – Please, God, no. That would make it Shopee Cup x 2 for us this year. Let’s hope the draw brings us at least one Japanese/Korean/Australian team!
