Alright, guys, let’s dive into something I did today – creating Chelsea player ratings. Now, I’m no expert, but I love football and I love tinkering with data, so this was a fun little project for me.
First, I started by gathering some information. I mean, you can’t rate players without knowing how they played, right? So, I checked out a few websites, watched some match highlights, and scribbled down some notes. Basically, I immersed myself in all things Chelsea for a bit.
Getting My Hands Dirty
Then came the messy part. I opened up a simple text editor – nothing fancy, just a place to jot down my thoughts. I listed all the players who featured in the match I was focusing on. No specific order, just get them all down.
Next, I went through each player one by one. For each one, I thought about their performance:
- Did they make any crucial tackles?
- Did they create any scoring chances?
- Did they score any goals, obviously?
- Were they generally solid, or did they make a bunch of mistakes?
Based on all that, I assigned each player a rating out of 10. Honestly, it’s all subjective, it’s just my gut feeling after watching and reading about the match. It’s not scientific at all!
I typed up a little blurb for some of the standout players – good or bad. Just a sentence or two explaining why I gave them that particular rating. Something like, “Solid at the back, made a couple of key interceptions,” or “Gave the ball away too cheaply a few times.” Stuff like that.
Finishing Up
Finally, I looked over the whole thing. I made a few tweaks here and there, adjusted a couple of ratings after rethinking some moments in the match. It’s all a work in progress, really.
And that’s it! That’s how I created my own Chelsea player ratings. It’s nothing official, just a bit of fun and a way to engage with the game a bit more. Maybe I’ll do it again for the next match. Who knows! It is just a good way to kill time.
