Actim Index (stats!)

[Mahogany 0]

I found the up-to-date Actim Index. It''s at http://soccernet.espn.go.com/stats/actim/_/league/eng.2/english-league-championship?cc=5739

Of the top 100 we have:

9. R Martin (top defender)

10. Wes (5th midfielder)

14. Holt (5th striker)

22. Crofts

27. Ruddy (4th keeper)

90. Ward

We have the joint most players in the top 25 with 4 (however Leeds'' 4 are all in the top 10.) We have the most in the top 28.

Bit worrying that outside of those 6 but then again we have changed the line-up quite a lot over the course of the season.

Found this on the Premier''s website about Actim:

"How is the Actim Index calculated?

Complex mathematical formulae were devised to calculate the value of each player''s contribution, match by match. In simple terms, the Actim Index comprises six calculations:

Calculation 1 - Assesses a player''s contribution to a winning team, based on points won by the team when he appeared

Calculation 2 - Assesses a player''s performance in each game, by allocating points for actions that positively contribute to a winning performance such as shots, tackles, clearances and saves. It also takes points away from players for negative actions such as yellow/red cards and shots off target

Calculation 3 - Allocates points based on time on the pitch

Calculation 4 - Allocates points for goal scorers

Calculation 5 - Allocates points for assists

Calculation 6 - Allocates points for clean sheets"
