How important is Community Shield to a team's season?

“The Community Shield, a pre-season football match in the UK, may not be a reliable indicator of a team's success in the upcoming season. Despite being played between the previous season's champions and runners-up, only eight of the 34 winners have gone on to win the Premier League. The match's significance is further diminished by the fact that the previous season's Premier League winners have won the Community Shield 18 out of 34 times. Expert Analysis: This trend suggests that the Community Shield's value as a predictor of future success is overstated, and teams should focus on their regular season performance rather than relying on a single match. The Community Shield's impact on team morale and fan engagement, however, cannot be underestimated.”
