POSSESSION-ADJUSTED METRICS

MONEYBALL CLINIC
A team guide series, using a statistic-led approach to squad assessment, tactic building and recruitment.
METHODOLOGY
I performed 10 full detail simulations of the Top 30 leagues to create a single database to give me insight into player and team performances under the current Match Engine. Set up in real world mode, with the first transfer window disabled. Teams were able to make transfers in January, allowing us to get a sense of what the AI considers each team's areas of weakness.
All player statistics were exported for players in active leagues who played over 900 minutes, aggregated and then standardised to per 90 metrics. For this video, I have removed all players outside the Top 8 leagues, and any players who didn't reach the 900 minute criteria in at least 50% of the simulations. All player recommendedations will come from this pool.
Before removing those players, their output was used to calculate aggregated data for each teams. This does mean that team data excludes players who contributed fewer than 900 minutes in any given simulation. As such the possession-adjusted metrics are not 100% accurate, but should give a reasonable picture of what actually occurred.
CHATGPT
To circumvent the timeout, ChatGPT suggested using a greedy algorithm to try and sort through the players for the In The Aggregate XI. This fails as it tries to identify the "best" player for each position, but not able to properly assess all criteria.
The manual approach focussed on identifying that combined defensive actions was going to be the hardest to achieve, and prioritising that in the first stage. And then, just trying out loads of combinations until I had a little breakdown.
