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).

Breaking up the opponent's play: tackles, interceptions, clearances, blocked shots.

Fouling0.00

Fouls drawn (free kicks, penalties won) minus fouls committed.

Dribbling−0.03

Carrying the ball and beating defenders, minus the balls lost.

Passing−0.04

How his passes change his team's chances of scoring and conceding.

Shooting−0.04

The value of his shots: the quality of the chance and what he makes of it.

Receiving−0.06

Getting open and receiving the ball in dangerous areas.

Replacement adjustment+0.12

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.
