I’ve been mucking around with the Actim Top 100 Index for a good few years now: I used to publish regular updates in an old forum before Aston Villa Central existed. It’s far from perfect, but it’s a pretty decent rule of thumb type of measure.
Someone once asked me whether the Villa players generally [...]
We’ve been checking in on the Actim Top 100 Index all season long on a roughly monthly basis and I’m very happy to include the final standings in the 2009/10 Season Review series as Villa actually top out the team table with no less than 10 players in the 100. If that surprises you, [...]
It’s that time of the month again, time to see how our players are measuring up according to the Actim Top 100 Index. This time we once again have 8 players in the top 100:-
6th Gabriel Agbonlahor – 489 points
14th Richard Dunne – 425 points
15th Carlos Cuellar – 411 points
16th James Milner – 408 [...]
Aston Villa have 8 players in the Actim Top 100 Index this week, second only to Chelsea, with Gabby Agbonlahor leading the way in 3rd place with 475 points.
Focusing on Gabby for a moment; he may well be the embodiment of the Aston Villa style efficiency I’ve been discussing a lot recently. Wayne [...]
This doesn’t include the Arsenal game, but as we haven’t had an update in 2010 so far I thought it was about time to check out the latest Actim Index. Gabby’s dropped down a place to 5th, but it’s an impressive foursome ahead of him – Cesc Fabregas, Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka and Wayne [...]
I haven’t had chance to do an Actim post for a little while, but worry not, I do keep an eye on the data. I’ve been waiting for the Index to be updated with the data from the weekend as I had a sneaky suspicion that our players would benefit from a certain victory over [...]
I feel bad, there’s lots of things I could have filled the international break with and Actim is ideal, but it completely slipped my mind. I thought I better throw this update out there before Jermaine Defoe’s 5 goal haul against Wigan wins him every spot in the top 20!!
Of course, I also want [...]
Milner and Petrov (just) eased back into the Actim Index Top 100 this week, making 8 Aston Villa players overall. James Collins’ performances and winning goal propelled him up the charts from 58th to 16th place – our highest placed player.
16th James Collins – 147 points
19th Gabriel Agbonlahor – 144 points
34th Ashley Young – 124 [...]
