World Cup All Time Fantasy Scout Ranking
in [World Football]
|
Prev: Liverpool sign two leftbacks
Next: Teams that were clear or light favorites in every match they played at the WC2010, yet failed to win the cup.
From: milivella on 3 Aug 2010 17:04 Before the WC, I posted a ranking of players based on their appearances +goals (= Fantasy Scout score) at the World Cup finals: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgU9XwgMT4SkdHNka0Y4SGExMkUtOUFlOVZHVzVWYVE&hl=en&output=html Now I've updated it to 2010, using data from http://scoreshelf.com/ (FIFA still hasn't updated their site): http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgU9XwgMT4SkdGt1V0NqREtOMmVYS29WdWZPcUk1QUE&hl=en&output=html All the players with at least 10 appearances are included. Players in bold have played in South Africa. Klose is second, and this maybe took away sense from the whole thing. But let me have some fun... Here is an ideal 4-2-3-1: G Maier / Taffarel RD Brehme CD Beckenbauer CD Zmuda LD Maldini DM Matthaeus DM Ceulemans RAM Lato CAM Maradona LAM Jairzinho S Ronaldo -- Cheers milivella

BTW, the correlation with the proper Fatnasy Scout historic ranking (= appearances+goals in all international matches, players from ARG BRA ENG FRA GER ITA NED ESP) http://fantasyscout.altervista.org/history.htm is quite high, so one could think that a nice way to open Fantasy Scout to all players in the world would be to compute just WC points. But this would mean points scored only in one month over four years (and unlucky players' score screwed up by a pre-WC injury), so I guess it's not a great idea. -- Cheers milivella |
