Mark said: Sure. I looked at 2 tables, the Cost of Attribute Table by position and the ykykyky positional rating weightings. I only looked at attributes that were 50 or higher in the ykykyky positional rating weightings and then divided this score by the corresponding value on the Cost of Attribute Table. This then gave a value rating, higher the better.
My expectation of this score is that if a player has high values for these value scores their rating will be better value than those that are higher in the high cost attributes. I use these in the filters and it seems to be working, although I haven't done comparisons against those with that are higher in the high cost attributes. And I always include acceleration in my filters, other than for DM or GK.
So not really tested but an assumption. Expand
Quick thought for you @Mark (and possibly @ZaZ )... when looking at IWB (i.e ZAZ Blue) Do you look at the ratings for DLR or WBLR? - Im assuming that either way you still look at the Position Rating (x/20) for DLR because that's where they're actually "playing" according to FM.
There doesn't seem like a huge difference in GS Ratings Weights between WB and D - but worth asking.
Mark said: Yes, unfortunately that aspect is manual. I haven't been able to find the info in the game itself to be able to download it and it is one of many fields not downloadable thru third party applications due to FM licencing.
If it helps, you don't need to include any ratings below 10 Expand
Ahhhh so there is a reason. i was sure if anybody knew why it would be you.
As I said, I've been screenshotting the data n GS and then using Picture to Table in excel. If I've got time at some point I may dust off the coding cobwebs and figure something out to automate things - I think GS has so much potential in extra features, and its already a fantastic bit of kit.
Mark said: I cant see any easy way to do this. There is no functionality I can see in GS to facilitate it. You can maybe look for other structures that use the position you are after and see which players are picked. Expand
Thanks anyway mark. I admittedly went down an excel rabithole yesterday evening and set up a quick "best xi" picker based off stats pulled from GS Arena, using the YK Ratings and Position scores and your formula to derive true positional rating...
Pulling the data from GS is very awkward, however. Cant find a simple way to copy and paste the data and exporting doesn't give the position data (x/20) for whatever reason. Having to screenshot and use a "picture to table" conversion.
Mark said: If you go to the club list screen and select your division/league, and then double click on your side you will see the rating for your team using the current ratings file. It will initially be based on a 4-4-2 set up. To see the other sides in your league you can press the left or right arrow to scroll through. all the ratings will be based on the formation your have selected with the default being 4-4-2.
I tend to calculate my own ratings because the offset for non natural players is much lower in the GS calculations. Expand
Hi there Mark, Been lurking for a while now, appreciate all that you (and the other great people on here) do for the community! Was just curious as I looked at the above post - Is there any way to change the positions that GS uses for these formations? I.e in the 4-1-3-2, switching TS (Default) to FS, and MC x3 to AM R/C/L etc in line with the @ZaZ formation for example.
Purely the lazy side of me would find it useful at a glance for seeing Best XI (Unless there another way in GS that I am unaware of) as well as the weakest members of the Best XI
