What’s pAdj?
Became a little interested in comparing players so threw this together. Based on their resp domestic league stats 19/20 season.
Gabriel stands out to me, looks a no brainer tbh. Slight concern over his passing, though. He hits fewer long balls than the others as well and that should really give him a relatively higher Passing%. Originally had Aké in there as well, but visualization became really messy so removed. But he falls short imo.
It's based on Statsbomb CB template, but I have replaced their metrics of "Pressured Long Balls" and "Unpressured Long Balls" with "PAdj Passes into final third" and "Passes under pressure ratio" (how many % of passes came under pressure from opponent). Did this because of difficulties with extracting the data for their original metrics.
I had to reverse engineer the PAdj Tackles & PAdj Interceptions but think I managed to with some help from the internet. Verified it vs van Dijk and Wan Bissaka's 18/19 seasons and it checked out, but small disclaimer on validity there.
Suggestions on other metrics very welcome!
Ticks all the boxes we need for a CB, strong, quick, good the air & decent on the ball
Feckin hard as nails as wel
Too many Linda lovers on here. Gabriel is the best option out
there.
Gabriel is everything we wish Lindelof could be. He is good in the air, relatively good pace, goes in for a tackle (more composed, not bailey style), he is very good on the ball; quite
tidy with a few long passes here and there, doesn't get bullied by opposition and won't back down from a challenge. He reads the game quite excellently for his age and would provide an excellent left footed partnership for Maguire.We should be all over this, I don't see him doing worse than Lindelof. He might not pull up any trees from the moment he arrives but given the time and opportunity Lindelof has been
given, he should be able to cement his place beside Maguire and should have a solid CB pair for the next few years. I
hope we sign him, 20 million is a steal considering his current abilities potential
He must be ****e if he’s a defender and Arsenal want him. Everton linked too? Avoid.
Any player Everton are looking at is bound to be ****e.
They do have a point with the Everton stuff though.Redcafe When united were linked with Gabriel few weeks ago
When arsenal became favourite to sign him..
I think it's this tbhI'm hoping the former is due to Covid and the latter is due to Arteta/Pepe/London.
