Lets back in Champion Data and be done with it. At least they're attempting to quantify it and not just going on gut feel. Also they have a better idea of the positions that exist in modern day footy unlike most people who still think theres such things as the tradtional HFF and CHF etc. Players people may think are terrible half back flankers might be exceptional at a role we have little idea of.
