There's a lot of work gone into that, thanks @Rampant.

Shows how consistent Curtis Davies has been to sit second with most matches played.

[Ghost of Clough]

So that's a starting 11 of:

Allsop

Jagielka   Stearman   Davies

Festy   Tommo   Bird   Shinnie   Williams

Knight

Lawrence

Buchanan the only player missing from the top 12 rated players.

He's my player of the season so far tbh. So consistent. 

[Dethorn]

I think the position of the strikers tells us what we already know 

Plange top

Stretton second

All below average

 

* Great work by the way

** Seeing players trending up or down would be great ( I am a proper numbers nerd) I would bet Fozzy is moving the right way

 

[sage]

I can't believe Bird is only on the same score as Williams. He should be top 3 with Jags and Davies.

Great work Rampant

Easier to get a high average rating from a handful of appearances than from being a regular starter. Hopefully Thompson can continue to impress.

I'll try and dig out the last update tonight for comparison. 

Foz is a funny one. His score his brought down because often when he has a poor game it really is an absolute stinker.

I think Byrne, Jozwiak and Kazim are on an upward trajectory (despite CKR being 22nd).

Davies and Jagielka are both just consistently very good.

I think we are kinder to young players, on and just after debut. Bird's goodwill went 2 years ago. He is judged as a senior now, a more accurate score.

I like the look of that team. Think it would give us 60%+ ball possession stats - and we'd win every game 1-0!

I think that's true. Makes Bird's score all the more impressive.

There is no way that Festy and Williams are our 2 best wing backs., not even in the top 3.
