Trent is not really great
Jimmy Squarefoot said:
Which makes Trent’s number even more impressive given he has a high starting position with a lot of space in behind, but is still dribbled past the least times vs his counterparts.

The 0.71 is the actual number per 90 mins. I can try and find the % if that’s helps

can't be dribbled past when klopp is berating you for running the up past the midfielder then jogging back after the ball has gone 40 yards over your head.

Not sure it does make it more impressive? Your assuming that players get the ball and dribble past him while he’s high up the pitch. But more likely they ping the ball into the space behind him while he’s up the pitch.

Ah sorry, yes I see your point. But I suppose to works both ways. There’s more space in behind him so it should be easier for attackers to get in behind (either long ball or dribbled). Will have to look at the absolute numbers of dribbled attempted against him.

Agreed. My main point was that as a stand alone stat it means nothing really, however combine it with other stats it can be useful and show a more relevant picture of how good he is
 
Not sure if this helps but if you look at the Tkl% column, Trent still comes out on top.

This metric is calculated by: Dribblers Tackled / (Dribblers Tackled * No of times dribbled past)

Most unsurprising stats of the day but you can see our ground and aerial dominance went down massively this season. Our ground duels went down to an average level but the aerial duels is well below average.

VVD is absolutely crucial to our backline, which will only get stronger with the likes of Matip and Konate next to him (Gomez will also be a good partner but not from an aerial standpoint).

Bar our final finishing, our attacking play has remained in line with prior years. As per below, we created a lot of opportunities:

And as per below, we were still getting the ball into the final 3rd and penalty area at the same rate as prior years.

No surprises here but as you can see, we still scored a pretty decent amount of goals last season (slight underperformance vs prior years) but it's the finishing that really screwed us up ...

This may come as a shock to some but overall, the pressing from the attack and midfield remained quite high. Overall umbers are low but that is in line with the rest of Europe having to hold back with pressing due to the hectic fixture schedule.

Not all of these stats are the best to use but there is zero comparison between Dias of this season vs VVD of the previous seasons.

That doesn't matter though does it?

Dias is perceived as being huge for city and fernandes is perceived as making utd title contenders.

As you can see the level of delusion is independent of reality. It's all about perception.

In 2107/18 salah was perceived to be on the same stage as messi and Ronaldo so people fell over themselves to give him awards. He only gets 30 then and hes a nobody.

Perception is fine. But I rather deal in absolutes and it's clear as day that VVD is by far the best CB in the world who had a bigger impact on his club, and Salah has been and still is world class.
