KPI Forwards Analysis – 2013/14 Downturn

1,023 Comments
Share

After analysing the Most Improved forwards of 2013/14 in accordance with our KPI (Key Performance Indicators) members tables, we now cast an eye over those strikers who suffered a drop in frequency across a number of attacking areas:

For the unfamiliar, these Key Performers Indicator (KPI) tables are designed to use a series of key stats to allow our members to track form or change in player performance. By tracking the frequency of certain key statistics and comparing over two separate periods of time, we can ascertain each player’s form, whether it be an improvement or decrease in displays on the pitch. As mentioned in last summer’s introductory article, we’ve rolled out a preview movie which shows just how to get the best out of the KPI tables.

For the purpose of this series of articles, we analyse the previous two seasons as a means of comparison. The players featured must have started at least 10 league games and are listed according to frequency of goals on target.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    So I have De vrij, Blind, Wijnaldum and robben on the bench right now in Mcd's. My 4 lowest scores so far are 3, 4, 7 and 8 was going to bring on De vrig, Blind and robben and leave wijnaldum on the bench for the 8.

    thoughts? should I leave the 7 on for one of the players?

    Are these subs good enough in McD if the lineups allow?

    Hummels3 + Luiz6 + Maicon2 + Gustavo7 = Demi + Blind + Wijnaldum + Messi

    Note: Already have De Virj and Mascherano in starting 11, if that helps.

    Thoughts? Go ahead with subs? Or leave one player on the bench and keep Gustavo's 7 massive score.
