We continue our series of articles for members focusing on the player Key Performance Indicators (KPI). This time around, we delve into the data to discover those forwards who favoured home comforts over 2013/14 and also assess the more consistent strikers who produced the same sort of attacking threat regardless of fixture.

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.

    Conor Wickham vastly improves as a player at home. Doesnt stop him being a shite player though.

    Can we stop with this home vs away nonsense please? Strong vs Weak fixtures is so much more enlightening.

        Aguero's are amusing. Its not the team which lets him down away from home. Perhaps if we showed him these stats he try a bit harder.

            It is in this context. CS's have some affinity to home/away rotation, but it is not as clear cut as every team being stronger at home, some are stronger away.

    CONSENSUS RMT
    Some of you will recall my “Consensus RMT” approach in previous seasons. I have analysed RMTs posted on this website during the last 24 hours, to identify the players most commonly selected in draft teams. The methodology is simple – I collate all RMTs, put them in a spreadsheet (easier than it sounds when you know Excel!), count the number of times each player is mentioned and calculate the % of RMTs in which each player appears. There were 135 RMTs in the period. Here are the results for all players at 10% or greater:

    Goalkeepers
    Krul 51%
    Mannone 34%
    Myhill 27%
    DDG 22%
    Elliot 12%

    Defenders
    Wisdom 58%
    Davies (TOT) 50%
    Debuchy 42%
    Shaw 41%
    Luis 32%
    Cameron 24%
    Targett 22%
    Vlaar 20%
    Mariappa 18%
    Cahill 13%
    Taylor (SWA) 13%
    Terry 13%
    Bruce 13%
    Jones 11%
    Upson 11%
    Ward 11%

    Midfielders
    Hazard 66%
    Siggurdson 60%
    Sanchez 54%
    Eriksen 53%
    Albrighton 49%
    Mata 47%
    Fabregas 22%
    Ramsey 20%
    De Jong 16%
    Toure 13%
    Wanyama 12%

    Forwards
    Rooney 75%
    Dzeko 65%

    Costa 24%
    RVP 18%
    Sturridge 14%

                Simply reading off the top 15 gives a team costing a little more than 100m I think. The reason is there's more consensus among high-priced players and less among low-priced. This approach also ignores context - e.g. no-one has Rooney AND RVP, or Albrighton AND Wanyama

    Mcgregor Heaton (rotation)
    Pieters N.Taylor (rotation) - Vermalen if at UTD - Vlaar if at SOT - Shaw
    Sanchez - Odemwingie - Barton - Ash Young - Matic (fancy him as in a Yaya role)

      it looks really unbalanced to me : way too reliant on your front 3.

      As for your midfield : Sanchez, yes. Odem, why not. Barton, not convinced. A Young, reaaaally not convinced. Matic, not sure about the Yaya role, he doesn't have Yaya's technical ability

        agreed on the balance. Just waiting on the united likely team for my mids. Barton needs to be on set plays or is outta there 🙂
        Just have this feeling Matic will be a shock success. Not really sure why...then again I thought Kenwyne would be good at the Cardiff City Stadium...

          I respect your hunch about Matic. It could work out. Probably not in Yaya circa 13/14 proportions, but it could be a could punt, and not too risky considering his price

            cheers Cesc.
            %.5 seems a cheap punt for a likely starter in Chelsea mid. Will pick up plenty of cleanie pts theoretically and i'd even expect to get a couple of assists with their attacking potential

              In order to get the CS and odd assist you'd need to play him every week. Are you prepared to do that?

    Out of interest, how secure are the roles of Santon (Newcastle), Billy Jones (Sunderland) and Barton (Qpr)?

    I prefer full backs this year over CB's and i'm curious about Barton as he posted some decent stats last year and is Premier league proven, albeit a liability at times.

    Filipe Luis has 2 main traits as a LB:

    • Likes tackling
    • Likes to play short passes

    He is well known for being extremely good at both of these aspects, here is a tackle he made on Cesc Fabregas:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgYunsVLC7U

    What does this mean?

    Well, in terms of FPL every successful tackle he makes means he get 1 point in the BAP system. Usually, this would not mean much as defenders also lose points for an unsuccessful tackle or a foul. These are Luis' stats on that front:

    Tackles Per Game | 4.1
    Fouls Per Game | 1
    Clearances Per Game | 1.7

    Normally, defenders who cannot tackle would score negative points for conceding fouls, and this would harm their BAP scores. If we add up all of those stats, it works out at a total of 5.

    Additionally, the fact he plays short passes means he is more likely to have a completion of over 90% which means a further 9 BAPs.

    Of course, we don't know how BAPs will add up, but it looks to me that he is likely to get a handful more than the other Chelsea defenders. Provided they get a CS, it looks as if Luis will be amogst the points.

      Couti - this is a fantastic resource. Thanks for doing this.
      It's notable that many obvious nailed-on players have not appeared yet. That suggests caution should be applied when using this information. Last year I chose a couple of cheap DEFs based on pre-season PT and they were on the bench when the season started. Do you have any tips on how to interpret the data?

          He's on my watchlist. reasonably priced and playing in a top 6 team with an exciting attacking manager and some of the most exciting young attacking mids behind him. I truly believe he can do more than score penalties

We have Marko Arnautovic, Peter Odemwingie and Brek Shea, all fantastic players who have pace and can cross a ball or two, and we pick Walters, consistently.

        Not really, but I believe that is down too Ajax having players that have more experience and put him in the shadows. I.E. Sigporsson, Klaassen and Schone. Ajax had MANY strikers to compete with for playtime. Whereas all Bojan has got to compete with is Crouch and Diouf. (And Cameron Jerome, but nobody ever counts him) Stoke needed to improve their attack drastically and rumour has it that Crouch will be pushed out and both Diouf and Bojan will play together. Diouf providing power and aggression and Bojan providing pace, skill and flair. Similar to Henrik Larsson and Chris Sutton of Celtic, many moons ago.
