Position average

Percentile rank against other defenders in our tracked dataset. The position average is the 50th percentile on every axis by definition.

How to read it: further from the centre is better. The rings mark the 25th, 50th and 75th percentile; the outer edge is the 100th.

Strongest at duels (90th) and rating (67th); defending (10th) is the area to grow.
