Estimating missing team data for season before 2018 #187

Open EdwardAnalytics opened 2 weeks ago

EdwardAnalytics commented 2 weeks ago

We have the team information for seasons 2019 onwards here (2024 example): data/2024-25/teams.csv

For the earlier seasons. It be useful to estimate the data in here, specifically team strength. We could name the files teams_estimated.csv.

These could be estimated using rules/conditions based on their position the previous season, the total value of players in their team, or by using a model. An LLM could also be used here.

The CSVs would be the exact same format as the teams data we have (teams.csv) But the following subset of columns only: id, name, short_name, strength.

I'm happy to do this if it would be useful and would be something which would be merged with main.
