Smarter Scouting Metrics Guide

In the Smarter Scouting series, we explored five key player roles and the metrics that help identify them using SkillCorner data.

Across the episodes, we broke down how specific physical, technical, and behavioural metrics can reveal distinct player profiles within each position group:

• Fullbacks
• Center Backs
• Midfielders
• Wingers
• Strikers

‍

Each role comes with its own set of characteristics, and by leveraging the right metrics, clubs can better understand how players truly perform beyond traditional position labels.

To go further, we’ve also compiled a complete overview of the metrics used for each role.
