    Just played a game of pointless on my Alexa at home. Question 1 was ‘name any English football team competing in the Premier League or Championship’.

    Obviously I went with Barnsley which turns out is a wrong answer! It obviously knows we aren’t ‘competing’ in the Championship!

    It just adds even more irony when it kept asking if I said Burnley!

    Ask Alexa if she knows anything about football...

    If she does, ask her if she's available on Saturday :)

    Think you're on to summat theer.

    The "data-driven approach" is actually just Conway sat in his fluffy slippers asking "Alexa, find me a soccerballer with real good striker zone stats. Oh and what formation is best?" ... in between munches of his white chocolate Magnum.

    Maybe Alexa is picking the team.
    Ask her what the squad is for Saturday. Probably got more idea than you know who.
