In our analysis, we evaluate all the players who played in La Liga until March (2023/2024 Season). In other words, we evaluate and filter the best performers with a minimum of 1100 minutes played in the league. Assessing all the positions, we evaluate a lot of factors and indicators in their games that allow us to generate ratings for their performances. As a matter of fact, in this type of analysis, the type of formation played doesnt influence or limit the ratings system.
GOALKEEPERS (GKs):
- Álvaro Vallés (Las Palmas)
- Andriy Lunin (Real Madrid)
- Rui Silva (Real Betis)
With incredible performances, Álvaro Vallés is the best performing Goalkeeper until March in the Spanish first division. Playing for a promoted team, it wasn’t expected that Vallés would archive this type of ratings since La Liga has a lot of great players in this position like Andriy Lunin or Rui Silva.
CENTRE-BACKS (CBs):
- Daley Blind (Girona)
- Mika Màrmol (Las Palmas)
- David López (Girona)
In terms of the Centre-Backs, the Top 3 ranking is led by one of the most interesting players in the Top European Leagues: Daley Blind. As a matter of fact, Daley Blind leads the average rating of the Centre-Backs in La Liga playing for the biggest surprise of this season: Girona. As a matter of fact, Girona has another Centre-Back in this Top 3 list: David López.
FULL-BACKS (FBs) and WING-BACKS (WBs):
- João Cancelo (Barcelona)
- Sergi Cardona (Las Palmas)
- Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid)
As shown above, in a Top 3 with quality players, João Cancelo archived the highest average ratings among the Full-Back/Wing-Back position. Being one of the most exciting Full-backs in the World, we can expect solid play of Cancelo in the Full-Back positon but his form is showing a negative trend.
MIDFIELDERS (Ms) and WINGERS (Ws):
- Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid)
- Isco (Real Betis)
- Frenkie de Jong (Barcelona)
With a great start of the season, Jude Bellingham has the highest average rating in the league. With an incredible high rating in his first season with Real Madrid, Bellingham seems like a clear star. In addition to his performances, we must also emphasise the performances of Isco since he revived his career in Real Betis, being a key contributor to the quallity football played.
CENTRE-FOWARDS (CFs):
- Antoine Griezmann (Atlético Madrid)
- Gerard Moreno (Villarreal)
- Iago Aspas (Celta Vigo)
As shown above, in a league with incredible play at the top, Griezmann has the highest average rating in La Liga. As a result of his performances, Griezmann is responsible for a lot of Atlético’s offensive output. At last, but not least, we need to give credit to Gerard Moreno and Iago Aspas, players with huge contributions to theirs respective clubs.
