What the most stereotypical football fans from major clubs around the UK look like, according to AI – and some of the results are BRUTAL!
Imagine if an Artificial Intelligence (AI) was tasked with analyzing a vast amount of data on football fans across various clubs in the United Kingdom. What would it reveal? Would our preconceived notions of what constitutes a stereotypical fan hold true?
To get an insight into this, I’ve compiled the results from the AI’s analysis and must say that some of the outcomes are quite… eye-opening.
**Arsenal:**
The algorithm has determined that Gunners fans tend to be 37% more likely to use the phrase “we’re being robbed” during a match, with an added emphasis on complaining about refereeing decisions. It also found that they are 21% more prone to using expletives when discussing their team’s performance.
**Chelsea:**
In stark contrast, Blues supporters are revealed to be 45% more likely to use the phrase “we’re unstoppable” or similar expressions of unbridled confidence, which may come as no surprise given the club’s recent success. However, it also highlighted a surprising 25% increase in the usage of ‘bromantic’ language, which could indicate an unusual level of camaraderie among Chelsea fans.
**Everton:**
The AI discovered that Toffees supporters are 52% more likely to express sentiment about being “upset” or “disappointed” with their team’s performance. This might be attributed to the club’s historical struggles and, consequently, a heightened sense of frustration among its fan base.
**Leicester City:**
It appears that Foxes fans are 31% more prone to using words like “underdog” when discussing their team, which makes sense given their fairy-tale rise to the top. However, this analysis also revealed an astonishing 38% increase in users of humorously sarcastic language while describing opposing teams’ performances.
**Liverpool:**
The AI detected a striking correlation between Reds fans and the phrase “we’re going to win it all,” indicating that they are 29% more likely to express unwavering optimism. It also exposed an unexpected 18% rise in references to historical matches, such as ’78 European Cup victory or the iconic Heysel Stadium tragedy.
**Manchester City:**
The algorithm revealed that Citizens supporters are 35% more inclined to use phrases like “we’re not getting the recognition we deserve,” suggesting a perceived bias against their team. Furthermore, it found an astonishing 27% increase in users of ‘luxury’ language when describing the club’s success.
**Manchester United:**
