Fußball wrote:I wouldn't have a problem with stats if they were flawless. However OPTA has a rigid definition and it leads to illogical consequences. For example they define a "chance created" (= "key pass") as "the final pass leading to a shot at goal from a teammate." So let me show you what this means on the pitch:
^ This according to OPTA is a "chance created" by Messi. So Messi passing the ball sideways to Neymar who receives the ball outside the box with plent of defenders infront of him, dribbles a few meters laterally to buy himself some space against 2 defenders and then takes a shot from outside the box is a "chance created" by Messi according to strict statistical OPTA measurements.
^ This is Iniesta slicing the entire Italy defense open with an inch perfect throughball. This, according to OPTA, is not a "key pass". Because Fabregas passes the ball on to the goalscorer so Iniesta is not the last man to pass the ball before the shot is taken.
So according to OPTA you can have a situation where 1 player squares easy passes around the edge of the box for teammates to take shots "creating chance gallore" and another one who GENUINENLY opens up the pitch from deep, someone who literally makes a KEY pass as everyone understands the word "key" and "pass", getting 0 key passes. This is why Gareth Bale has the same amount of "key passes" as Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas and Modric last season by the way.
I would say Whoscored is not completely off the mark. There is a certain conformity between what you see and what Whoscored hands out as ratings and although getting for example 3 key passes, 3 dribbles and 1 goal shows that it can't have been a completely bad performance it doesn't necessarily mean it must have been a better performance than someone who had 2 key passes, 1 dribble and 0 goals.
Harmonica what's your response to this?

Re: Most controversial World Cup Golden Ball's since 1966
Must've taken fussball a week to write that but you are completely right. The stats some of the sites use are very flawed and doesn't tell you the full story which is why despite scoring more goals people appreciate Benzema more than Bale this season. I know it might be hard for them to collect the stats of every single player if they had to sit down and discuss what they'd consider a key pass and what not but at least they are consistent which is the most important thing

I didn't use OPTA chances created in this evaluation, I watched every game, and evaluated every situation myself. Although you definitely can include OPTA chances created, in larger samples the individual differences tend to average themselves out.jibers wrote:

Re: Most controversial World Cup Golden Ball's since 1966
I thought little of comparing Charlton to Eusebio in WC66 Golden Ball,
- Eusebio played better in rounds 1,3,4,6 and Charlton rounds 2,5. However overall difference is quite small, and Charlton played better in the head to head game, which is why Eusebio played for 3rd and Charlton in the final.
- Statistics. Goal scoring is quite even actually, 3 of the penalties Eusebio scored he didn't create which can be taken off the comparison. So Eusebio scored twice as many relative goals, but had 6 times as many great chances to score.
Chance's created on paper Charlton had twice as many, but most of those were not great chance's and in practice Eusebio created 3 times the great chance's. So advantage to Eusebio actually.
Charlton defended more, but I think Eusebio's advancing play with dribbling overshadows that with quite a lot.
Goals - Chances Created - Dribbles - Tackles - WC66 (opta)
3 - 18 - 15 - 15 - Charlton
9 - 10 - 35 - 10 - Eusebio
4 - 9 - 22 - 17 - Beckenbauer
So for me Eusebio played better in the tournament and should have been ahead of Charlton in the Golden Ball.

Re: Most controversial World Cup Golden Ball's since 1966
Jairzinho's goal scoring and dribbling was almost identical of Messi's, scored more goals based the chances he should had, and advanced the play by dribbling more than anyone in the tournament. But it isn't as good as Messi, because it's less important performance, and he created less scoring chances, and defended less.
But compared to Pele it's easily better one, Jairzinho played better in 4 rounds, only against Romania and Italy were they as good. Both were part 11 goals of 19 Brazil scored. And although he didn't put as much in creating and defending department, the margin in goal scoring in relation to chance's and dribbling is a massive one. This makes Pele's Golden Ball look really bizarre one, and what's even more bizarre is that Jairzinho wasn't even Top 3. In the old days it was more about marketability and hype, rather than the actual perfomance's. Which is quite logical as papers and the sport needed legends, and people didn't have video evidence to see through those as they can nowadays.
Round by round performance it's 3rd best overall, but Kempes produced slightly more quality and was a lot more important overall, so I give advantage for him.

Is it just by browser that doesn't open the gifs in the browser immediately like other Harmonica gifs and wants to download them first instead (because of size I guess)? It's annoying to download them one for one.

It would be too much to download in the same page, if you're using chrome there's plugin linkclump which allows you opening multiple links at the same time. I'm sure there's extensions as such for every browser.

Re: Most controversial World Cup Golden Ball's since 1966
Round by round it's not as good as Romario 94/Rossi 82, nor Eusebio 66/Pele 70 to the 6th round.
Compared to Ronaldo 98, Ronaldo 02 scored more, but mostly because his team created more chance's for him, Ronaldo 02 scored slightly worse ratio 8 from 27 great chance's than Ronaldo 98 (4/12), and they are almost as important, 53% vs 50%. Ronaldo 98 dribbled more, but created less chance's. Ronaldo 98 it's almost identical performance to the final, the final performance setting them apart, and I think it equals Charlton's 66 performance overall.
I've to tell you I can understand the reason why Khan was voted for Golden Ball even without watching his performance, if he was amazing. It was done before final, and Ronaldo didn't impress me, and even in the final Ronaldo missed 2 1on1's against Khan, so it's pretty even performance in the final also.

Compared to Ronaldo 98, Ronaldo 02 scored more, but mostly because his team created more chance's for him, Ronaldo 02 scored slightly worse ratio 8 from 27 great chance's than Ronaldo 98 (4/12), and they are almost as important, 53% vs 50%. Ronaldo 98 dribbled more, but created less chance's. Ronaldo 98 it's almost identical performance to the final, the final performance setting them apart, and I think it equals Charlton's 66 performance overall.
