How we rate →WAR: the goals added (g+) of each of his actions, above replacement level (the per-minute output of his group's fringe players), converted to standings points (0.64 points per goal), then to wins (3 points = one win). PAL Rating scores performance from 0 to 100 against regulars in the same group (50 = median).

PAL: dimensions
Where WAR comes from (in wins)
Breaking up the opponent's play: tackles, interceptions, clearances, blocked shots.
Fouls drawn (free kicks, penalties won) minus fouls committed.
Carrying the ball and beating defenders, minus the balls lost.
The value of his shots: the quality of the chance and what he makes of it.
Getting open and receiving the ball in dangerous areas.
How his passes change his team's chances of scoring and conceding.
The parts above are measured against the position average. This adjustment moves the baseline to a fringe player in his group, prorated by minutes: positive when fringe players do worse than average, negative when they do better.
