Division 4 season 5 value added Perhaps some controversial positions here. Hoffenheim top the table , ahead of run away winners Celtic. There are definite similarities with D3 here, with the exeception of Celtic who ran away with the league in most respects. However Hoffenheim over came 5 potentially better sides to come 2nd and…

Division 4 Season 5 value added. The two Moscow clubs top the charts, predicted 3rd place team Leicester -16VA A don’t think it is a shock to see CSKA top for PVA , narrowly ahead of Athletic club and Sampdoria who were also promoted.  Top raw VA went to Lokomotive ,who fell at the last…

Division 2 Season 5 Value added , Villareal storm the barricades. Southampton sink into the solent. +15 PVA and +14 VA, a fantastic performance by Villareal. This somewhat eclipses the +10 VA of Sunderland ,  +9 VA of Internacional and + 7 of Genoa. Just goes to show the manager makes the differences, at least…

Bayern top the PVA table with Napoli having the best raw score. O.K. so this year I have sorted according to positional value added. This is the value added +1 / finishing position.  The idea is that finishing higher up gets you more positive points. So Bayern who finished top , with a raw VA…

A couple of mighty team languish in the depths of division 3, will they emerge to haunt of of the top 100 or vanish without a trace. Why are PSV not top of the league, well regular underperformance is the answer. A team with a 91 keeper and above 89 should easily finish in the…

Will the big 3 return to the big time? will it be a German top 3 ? Atletico are the obvious favourites, with Southampton , Schalke and Leverkusen close behind. O.K second division, so second point to note.  Some managers have commented that they have built their squad up through skilled trading or scouting and…

Who is top of the pile and who can over perform. Have Barcelona sacrificed depth for youth? First of all, nothing here is opinion. I don’t believe or predict that AC Milan will finish last.
