[R-sig-ME] Modelling football matches

[Jorge Teixeira]

Hi.

1) Assuming that most are somewhat familiar with football, and that it is
world cup time, what do you think of this model to compare differences in
distance covered between stages (group stage vs final stage)?

lmer(distance ~ stage + (1|player) + (1|game/game_part), data=my_data)

2) In theory, which random slopes do you think should be added, if any?

Thank you.
