WAR and PAL Rating, 2026
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).

Where WAR comes from (in wins)
Goals prevented given the quality of the shots on target he faced.
Coming off his line to cut out a ball in behind.
Catching or punching crosses rather than leaving them in the box.
Holding the shot or parrying it without giving up a rebound.
Kicking and throwing: how his distribution changes his team's chances.
Collecting loose balls and low crosses (counted with handling in his ratings).
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.
Shot stopping drives almost all of a goalkeeper's WAR, and it swings a lot from season to season: one season says less than it does for an outfield player.
