Description

Admit it, at some stage you’ve said that an underperforming player is ‘overrated’. But is that always a fair term to use?
 
In Episode 4, we break down how players can be thought of as ‘overrated’. Is it simply a difference of opinion? Does a player’s transfer fee influence that opinion? Or can performance statistics provide some truth behind those views?
 
We look at how you could use analytics in football to delve deeper into a player’s performance, which might help to decide just how ‘overrated’ a player might be!
