The Key
I’ve converted their xG90 and xA90 in to raw FPL attacking points from the season so far. No appearance points, Clean sheet points or bonus just raw attacking points. I’ve then ranked them from 1 – 28. There was a minim 575 minutes played.
I’ve also included their FPL price, Points per Match and categorised their status around whether they were a likely starter or otherweise
There’s also there minutes per goal or assist. Obviously the lower the better. I’ve also included the volume stats around key passes and shots as it gives a different perspective on the underlying numbers. These play no part in their ranking though. Just their xG and xA.
All stats are from the fantastic free site understat
There’s also a schedule showing each teams best attacking defender who was a starter at the end of the saeson
The key to the status is as follows.
LS – likely starter
RR – Rotation Risk
UL – unlikely starter
UK – unknown
INJ – injured as I write this
