Real Salt Lake Team MVP?
After reading scaryice's MLS Team MVPS post, I was wondering who is the leading candidate for RSL's Team MVP?
I think it is between Jamison Olave (stud in the backline) and Javier Morales (creative force going forward). Since one is mainly defensive and the other is offensive, I will compare them respectively. Then, I will compare PPG for each player in games they appeared in, as well as the goals forward and goals against during their time on the pitch. Lastly, I gotta compare my site's ratings as well.
Olave:
GAPG 2007 - 1.5
GAPG 2008 to Date - 1.23
GAPG Diff - 0.27
PPG - 1.63 (26 Points in 16 Games)
GF while in - 17
GA while in - 13
Goal Diff while in - 4
Site Rating - 7.58
Morales:
GFPG 2007 - 1.03
GFPG 2008 to Date - 1.23
GFPG Diff - 0.20
PPG - 1.43 (30 Points in 21 Games)
GF while in - 24
GA while in - 24
Goal Diff while in - 0
Site Rating - 7.03
These stats give me the reason to cast my vote for Olave as the Team MVP to Date.
Anyway, what are your thoughts? Are there other players that should be considered for MVP? Any other stats or philosophies to share? Leave your comments below.
