Yet his value is being weighed down in most cases. The biggest flaw with TMV is that it factors in potential, which is a prediction of the future and not an assessment of the present. agreed Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 4 hours ago, dennis said: FWIW, Transfermarkt has the Belgium's Jupiler Pro League's Total market value at 570,98 mil euro vs MLS at 487,50 mil euro. KAA Gent is listed at at TMV of 56,90 mil euro. To put that in perspective TFC is listed at 30.18 mil. Not sure how anyone concludes that MLS is the stronger league by any metric. The same Transfermarkt that currently lists Alphonso Davies' value at 800,000 euros? https://www.transfermarkt.com/alphonso-davies/profil/spieler/424204 Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that’s beside the point. They use an algorithm.. nothing to do with the player, their potential etc. Davies has been worth more than 5 million AT LEAST since the 2017 gold cup so it just shows how out of touch it is.

Not really. If the same algorithm is applied to all players their value as posted may not be accurate in relation to real dollars but they would be relative to other players. In theory at least.

El Diego Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 That's a devastating two man counter. Haven't really seen him play, but a front three of him, Davies, and Millar might be dynamite on the counter.

Bison44 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 What a nice run to get into the open space. I dont know what else he did the rest of the game but that was a heck of a play. Herdman has to use a 2 striker formation...I want to see Larin/David, or Cavallini/Millar etc in the fall. Some combo of the an established guy and the youngster. I feel for Ricketts, because if these kids keep growing in leaps and bounds he might not get many more games to move up the alltime scoring list.

dyslexic nam Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Jesus - he really blew past that defender. I only know what I have read about him in this thread, but he seems like a promising player. Seems like the kind of guy it might be worth inviting to a NL game for depth. Northvansteve and Cblake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for Ricketts, because if these kids keep growing in leaps and bounds he might not get many more games to move up the alltime scoring list. I don't feel bad for the Ricketts at all. The amount of caps, goals, and general success he's had in soccer is way more than his ability and soccer IQ should have afforded him. A two striker formation would require one of the strikers to do a lot of defensive work if we play it against good teams. Certainly neither Larin or Cavallini seem to be the type to be able to drop back and play a defensive forward type role. It is interesting to think about how to line up considering our (relative) strength in attack, suddenly. I don't think these young kids are too far off our best XI.
