yeah but my arbitrary numbers from my perception and opinion is that gives your a quantitive way of analysing the qualitative aspects of team
So if you average it our for every team
my estimate is last season Celtic were around 7/10
Sevco probably over season around 6.6/10
hearts 5/10
All the rest between 5.5 and 6 out of 10
now these figures are just my opinion
So if we assume thats the marker for winning league the more players you have scoring 7 or more every game the better your average will be as team.
to make your average better you need to get your players hitting higher scores than year before.
but if you get someone hitting 8/10 average then big clubs will try poach him.
they can offer big wages, so to hold that player you really ought to be offering similar if not same wage contract or sell him at a multiple of the wage they think he worth.
But if you let your 8/10 player go
you need to replace him with someone similar or your team will decline.
But the pool of 8/10 players is much smaller therefore you need to get someone who nobody else rates as an 8/10 or make a youth player get up to that standard asap.
you might get 25 million for 8/10 player but it will cost you at least that to get equal or better player and caveat is if you offer 25 million you need to really offer him wage the other dude got at new club.
So unless you are better than others at spotting undervalued players you won't get stronger as team unless you have bigger wage budget available
And the jump from 7/10 average player to 8/10 average player is approx 10 times the wage
Also works same between 6/10 and 7/10
hearts player might be on 1500 per week but if he starts hitting 7+/10 regular then celtic might say here you come play for us for 10 k per week
he might then become an 8/10 player playing better players but he might fold and become a 6/10 player
but you stuck paying 10k per week for dude who bringing team average down.
And thats why imo
you cant get out of reach of next best club in scotland permanently
because you gonna lose your best players and you aint guaranteed to buy better ones for money you got for your best ones.
but you cant keep hiking their wages either unless you have a money pit that keep up with the teams getting 100 million each season from tv deals
not even if we win champions league do we get 100 million
so while tv dictates who has good players we will struggle to maintain our 7/10 average every season without very very good management and good use of cash we generate.
no sure if that makes sense
