Last week we launched a couple of brand new features in our Members Area – Team Profiles and the Team Comparison Tool.
We’ve felt for a long time that, while our tools provided in-depth analysis of player performance, often as Fantasy managers, we needed a similar view of how teams as a whole are performing.
The Team Profiles were the first step. These allow you to view a team’s data in detail and slice by any Gameweek interval – including the Last Four Gameweeks, Last Six Gameweeks, Home and Away or any specified Gameweek range.
Alongside the host of team statistics provided on the profile, we’ve also added to our arsenal of statistical maps, plotting the location of events on the pitch. Using these you can examine the occurrences of events such as Chances Created and Fouls Won to analyse the attacking patterns of terms. Similarly, you can flip these charts and assess any weaknesses in a team’s make-up by, for example, examining where chances are being conceded.
We’ve also included player data on the profiles so, when you choose a team to analyse, you can scroll down and view all the players that contribute to the Gameweek range you’re currently viewing for that team. This is a very effective way of assessing a team’s defensive qualities whilst, in the same screen, scanning their squad for the defenders who perhaps offer the most creativity and threat in attacking areas.
Having set up these profiles, we then extended our Comparison Tool to include them. Like the Player Comparison Tool, this enables you to assess two teams over a given Gameweek period and gain an immediate appraisal of how they compare. While this is useful for head-to-head comparisons, you can also use it to compare the same team over two different intervals to perhaps assess how they have progress or regressed in certain areas. We used this to compile our recent Technical Area article on Liverpool’s recent progress here.
Both these additions are live and available to our members.
Half-season memberships are still available for just £10. These will take up to the end of the season and expire on June 1. Click here for more details on how to register or upgrade.
In the meantime, here’s a movie we put together to preview the new features in use.
