In Development – The Stats Compare Tool

The “Stats Compare Tool” is the current work in progress for the Members Area. We’re hoping to have a first iteration of this new members feature available by the end of next week, at which point we’ll turn our attentions to producing new event maps on the Match Dashboard and Player Profile.

The Compare Tool has been a long-term aim. It allows for direct comparison of two players, across over 100 statistics, with an instant representation of which player is stronger and in which areas.

The tool fully incorporates our stat maps so, right now, you can compare Average Positions for any two players and, when we’ve added further maps, this will be extended to events like Shots, Crosses, Chances Created and a touches heatmap.

Those maps, along with all the stats in a player comparison, can be fully sliced by our filters. This means you can compare two players over the “last four Gamweeks”, their “last four matches” or compare two players home or away record. You can even take a single player and run a comparison home and away, or compare his form so far in 2012/13 to his previous season’s data.

We’re also adding the ability to switch to average values so you can see minute per event stats for all the numbers shown, leveling the playing field for the comparisons.

The tool will be accessible via the Members Area menu and we’re hoping to provide shortcuts to running player comparisons in the Player stats tables and in the Player Profiles. A compare button will immediately take you to the tool for the players, or player you’re viewing or have selected.

They’ll hopefully be more news on this development, plus a movie previewing the feature, at some stage next week.

            I don't think so no. I'll wait to see how he settles in first, usually when I go on a hunch, it turns out badly.

            Probably go with Torres and a defender for the double week.

        thanks, yeah, shapes up nicely. learned last year that strikers are the key, getting the same for a goal as the mids/defs, so going heavy there. like the bonus points rules, hence the inclusion of Arteta and Britton.

          I agree that forwards look to be key, although I think the new bonuses favour the mids.

          Where would you say the balance lies between midfield and defender spending?

            Defenders look relatively expensive to me Ginkapo.

            Though hopefully we'll find the odd bargain here and there.

            My defence was very poor last season. Didn't come off at all. Need to catch a few cheapies doing well. Hoping Caulker will nail down a place at Spurs, he'll be a good option. Likewise Rafael. Don't see any value in Kompany over Lescott. More tackles and arguably better GT from Lescott.

            Unsure about the midfield with the new ruling. Somebody like Britton is very rarely going to get attack points, but should consistently get the added 2. Arteta I think will be key.

            Interesting point about the GK's Flynn, hadn't thought about the save points, may look into getting a Chels def and a cheaper GK.

              Stats suggest that City dont pass around at the back so I am going with Hart and Figureo. Look at his stats. 4 bonus pts week in week out.

          Goalies could be a problem with no save points except penalties and I don't see many getting tackles or pass completion bonuses.

          Arteta also at 6.2 looks good.
          Fabio is 4.2 as far as I know.

    Evening, Gentlemen.

    Was reading a comment on here from a couple of days ago or so that has got me thinking: it was in reference to the poster thinking that Joe Hart would be a good pick, alongside Soton 'keeper, who he would bring in for 3 games in first 15 GW's, or so.

    So,

    1) How much is Hart likely to cost: 7 million or so ?

    2) Will this 11 or 11-plus million cost be too much to spend ?

    Looks decent. Or should we just do a better (and cheaper) rotation of 'keepers ?

    Thoughts ?

      I think i'll get hart as he'll more than likely be the highest scoring keeper at the end of the year and he'll probably be the same cost as all the city defenders except zabaleta/richards (which will probably be rotation city). I'll definitely want a city defender and hart is the way to go imo

      For 8.5m I got more points from rotating Vorm and Krul than I would have got from Hart + filler for 11m. Now, Vorm and Krul were an exceptional pair but even with not such a good combination they should score close enough to Hart to justify the saving.
