    Best crossers of the season? (accuracy and number/ number per minute if possible)
    No real way to see the best of anything really, which does suck.
    But if you give me a list of players you want to compare it wont take long purely to look at their crossing stats (being number of crosses, number of accurate crosses, and crossing accuracy %). Doesnt specifically have a crosses per minute figure but can also add the number of minutes they have played which should do when calculated with total crosses figure

    And Jermaine Pennant stats versus Theo Walcott

    What defines accurate crossing though? If a player on his team gets his head to it?

    Okay then. Just heard a rumour Jermaine Pennant had the most accurate crosses so could I have: Pennant, Nani, Bale & Ashley Young?
    Crossing wise for this season

    Spoiler:
    Show

    Nani
    Minutes Played 1901
    Accurate Crosses 40
    Total Crosses 195
    Crossing Accuracy 21%

    Ashley Young
    Minutes Played 1332
    Accurate Crosses 25
    Total Crosses 127
    Crossing Accuracy 20%

    Bale
    Minutes Played 2767
    Accurate Crosses 44
    Total Crosses 167
    Crossing Accuracy 26%

    Pennant
    Minutes Played 1626
    Accurate Crosses 67
    Total Crosses 219
    Crossing Accuracy 31%


    He does seem quite a bit ahead. But then you only have to look at the teams to see some of the reasons for the differences.

    :dontknow:

    That would be my guess too (or a volley etc ofcourse) .Not the best way of working it out i guess but other options such as any dangerous cross even if the player misses it, seem like a much harder job and adds some subjectivity to it, oh well.

    Yeah I guess it's not the best way but there aren't many better ways of doing it. I was just asking because the results wouldn't be a fair representation because Pennant is aiming for Crouch who's going to win most of the crosses so he should have the higher crossing accuracy in theory and he does.

    I like that Downing's minutes per goal is listed as "infinity".

    These are all really awesome.

    Price ranges from £15 to £40 a year, depending on the package you pay for.

    Purely out of curiosity, stats for Jussi Jaaskelainen and Adam Bogdan, s'il vous plait? In my head, I picture Bolton and have thought for a few years now "Their defence is totally **** but they get the results and avoid relegation because Jussi's a damn good goalie", and when Bogdan got the odd game here and there last season he was pish. Bogdan's been playing far more regularly this season and Bolton find themselves in trouble...but the two of them have played roughly the same number of games over the course of the season, so I'm wondering how their stats stack up to each other. Might actually make me change my opinions on Adam Bogdan (who I still think is pish :p:) if his stats are better than Jaaskelainen's...and they probably are, as well :p:

    Can we get one for Colocinni? Newcastle fans mentioning him being the second best CB in the league and I'm just curious to see what the stats show.

    Sure For reference i put in a few of the favs. Kompany, Evans , Verm+ Kosc for comparison, i even chucked in Rio cuz i love him and wanted to see how he fared. Probably others i could have put but **** it.

    Had to put 3 on top 3 on bottom else image when gay and smaller, so for quick reference as it looks **** heres some comparisons. In order of best statistically (apologies if any mistakes)

    (Added Skrtel after)

    All the working

    Spoiler:
    Show

    Ground 50-50 win %
    Skrtel = Rio > Kompany > Kosc > Evans > Verm > Colo

    Aerial 50-50 win %
    Skrtel > Kompany > Rio > Evans = Kosc > Verm > Colo

    Tackle success %
    Rio > Verm > Kompany > Skrtel > Evans > Colo > Kosc

    Mins per loss of possession
    Skrtel > Kompany > Rio > Colo > Evans > Kosc > Verm

    Pass completion %
    Evans > Rio > Kompany > Verm > Kosc > Colo > Skrtel

    How many times dribbled past
    Verm > Skrtel > Kompany > Evans > Rio > Kosc > Colo

    Defensive Errors
    Evans = Colo = Skrtel> Kompany > Verm = Rio = Kosc

    Interceptions
    Kosc > Kompany > Colo > Verm > Evans = Rio > Skrtel


    Next
    Simply gave 1 to 6 for their respective positions, added them up, lowest wins and based on these statistics alone who is best. Not saying this is a strong piece of evidence, but still.

    So it ends up as

    Kompany (19) > Skrtel (23) > Rio (24) > Evans (29) > Verm (31) > Kosc (35) > Colo (38)

    Make of it what you will

    I think i overdid it, but i was bored.

    You should have done it in order of "minutes per x" rather than the amount of tackles for example. Also, why did you leave it stuff like "interceptions" and "successful last man tackle"? Seems very arbitrary to only consider some of those criteria.
