How to read this page

Start with minutes, then ability, then market. One number never decides a player.

Role

Minutes, starts and the last-five-versus-previous-five change. A role signal is not an attitude verdict.

Ability

Percentiles within the same league and position; only metrics with enough coverage are used.

Market

A third-party reference value, not a transfer fee or salary. Missing values are never treated as zero.

This period's watches

Role changes

The last five appearances compared with the previous five. Both windows need at least three games.

Effort watch

Distance, high-speed running and sprints in the last five games versus the previous five. Goalkeepers are excluded. Only leagues with per-match running data are compared; missing values are never treated as zero.

Running changes need a little more data

145 of 718 watch-pool players already have a running percentile. The last-five versus previous-five comparison needs at least three covered games in each window; it will appear automatically once the season sample grows.

Watch pool

Only players who pass the minutes threshold; filters never change the percentile cohort.

Data boundaries

  • Reference values are third-party estimates with their own dates; they are not transfer fees, salaries or release clauses.
  • Percentiles compare players in the same league and position; if that cohort is too small, the page falls back to the same position across the five leagues.
  • Minutes falling can reflect rotation, injury, suspension or tactics. Running data currently covers only some leagues and missing values are not zero; neither signal alone can prove attitude or a decline in ability.
  • This page does not publish transfer rumours, medical claims or betting advice.
