@lewis_everett11 @Matt_7542@whitdcfc Ah so it's like overall not per 90, for the sake of argument can you not just extrapolate his stats to like 30 odd games, if it's not per 90 then surely it's also skewed to players with more minutes? Can you not see how judging ebou on max birds strengths is weird
@lewis_everett11 @Matt_7542@whitdcfc He played like what 15 games or something, can you not add him in and see if he ranks high or low? If you did this with kroos modric and casemiro for madrid in their prime who would rank the highest. It's sort of weird to rank every midfielder on the same metric
@lewis_everett11 @Matt_7542@whitdcfc It's such a weird thing to analyse though because that's the point of a midfield 3, to have 3 different players, surely if you're critiquing anyone's attacking actions it should be kenzo? How does Harrison Armstrong rank in your random ranking? Are they ranked on actions per 90?
@lewis_everett11 @Matt_7542@whitdcfc That makes sense, but why is his goal contributions compared to attacking midfielders relevant to his off the ball work, rodri isn't crap cuz he gets less forward touches then de bruyne
@lewis_everett11 @Matt_7542@whitdcfc What does the average column actually represent then? The average of all numbers there? Because if so then more goals would pull that number up
@plobbeynffc@wsavage_dcfc @AurierForPM It does, that's the point of it, but it's if the player makes a genuine attempt to play the ball and he grabs his shoulders first. Harsh but it is a red
@The92Bible I don't think it's ever been that high though in fairness, would you argue if Bournemouth won the prem and a few FA cups in the next 20 years they'd be bigger than derby? Not a right or wrong answer but feels like the attendances would make it a very similar comparison
