forgiveness: But in this case, it does indicate position because movement here would mainly be within the position zones occupied by the player. What I showed is accurate because Huesca dominated possession that day vs Alcorcón. 58% vs 42% And your guy is showing you a diluted heatmap. This is why I prefer the more detailed one from the average players position on the same app, Sofascore. 1. First one belongs to Adolfo Gaich... the heatmap shows he clearly dropped into a withdrawn attacker role since Munoz intruded more on the right... 2. This is Munoz 3. This is Marc Gual of the Opposition, Alcorcón so you both are confusing yourselves. Lol 1 Like 1 Share

TheSuperNerd: Still the same. Gaich moved along the center field. If Gaich dropped into withdrawn attacker role, probably, Nwakali also dropped from his original position to deep attacking midfield. |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 1:19pm On Jan 06, 2022 |
forgiveness:The point on Nwakali was about his roles this season Egbon, not his entire career. Context is this season alone. 2021/22. Habamana. Also @bolded.... The heatmaps would still indicated the major positions they took throughout the game alongside snippets of their pop ups in some unnatural positions. This is Ruben Dias vs Newcastle away from home in the EPL this season. Possession was 28-72 in %. Ruben clearly played Central defence with major movements around his natural zone as RCB. Those who saw the game can confirm this as true. So the detailed Sofascore heatamap is indeed more reliable than their diluted versions and the line up graphics. 1 Like

forgiveness: Not deep attacking midfield. It's Deep central Midfield. And this exactly brings up most of what I mentioned. Sometimes when he starts a game as the AM, tactical adjustments are made and he begins operating deeper. Watching him regularly showed this a lot. So he's played more central roles than AM this season. It's only a few times he has started at AM and finished there. (SEE HIS HEATMAP FOR HIS VERY LAST GAME vs Girona BELOW. HE PLAYED AMF). Munoz is a forward who can play in a 442 as part of a front two or on the right. This explains the tactical adjustment of Gaich to drop a bit into AM/SS positions for Munoz to cut inside into the central forward position. Finito. 2 Likes 1 Share

forgiveness: I know that 28 players are allowed to participate at this coming AFCON because of Covid-19, however, I am not aware of the law being revised to reflect the accommodation for 28 players. I think the statutory process for player replacement prior to the tournament still remains the same. Below is a post from Shina Okeleji Onuachu� Dennis❌ Osimhen❌ Ighalo❌ #Nigeria will be without striker Odion Ighalo at #AFCON2021 after his Saudi Arabian club @AlShababSaudiFC refused to release him for the tournament in #Cameroon. And there will be no replacement. https://www.bbc.com/sport/africa/59880503 |

TheSuperNerd: Let us leave it at that. Even the heatmaps of Dias shows he played mostly as a DMF but we know his primary duty to be CB. |

forgiveness: Because Dias kept kind of a high line. Look at Laporte's heatmap from same game. Looks similar to Dias but shows he kinda sat a little behind Dias' line. Anyway, we move. Good talk Egbon. 2 Likes 2 Shares

TheSuperNerd: Where is the position of an AMF in a football field? When that is established and agreed upon then we can use the heatmap to determine the actual movement/position of a player in the field. But I reiterate, movement on the pitch doesn't determine the role or position of a player. |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 1:41pm On Jan 06, 2022 |
An AM is meant to majorly exploit and occupy the zones in between the opposition DM and the Opposition Central defence. In other words, he takes up position in the final third, in advanced attacking areas in zones between his team's central Midfield options and his team's forwards. Finito. And I get what you are driving at. A player who is a GK can have a heatmap showing a trace of his movement where he ran upfield to fight for a corner before returning to goal. But the concentration of the heatmap will show he was majorly within his GK zone. So Heatmaps can be used as indicators of players positions for the most parts. It's quite reliable. forgiveness: 3 Likes 1 Share |

TheSuperNerd: Thank you very much. From the three examples, it’s obvious AMF is after the center circle in the opposite half. Let us compare it with Nwakali’s heatmaps. We can see he moved mostly along that line above the center circle in the opposite half. Let a neutral person analyze his position from the two pictures below.
