Pre-Peak Value Efficiency (PPVE)

Identifies pre-peak players offering exceptional value relative to their age bracket. Higher PPVE = better value.

Understanding Pre-Peak Value Efficiency (PPVE)

Arsenal FC's Myles Lewis-Skelly at 19 years old has the highest Pre-Peak Value Efficiency at 5.63×. That means Myles Lewis-Skelly is valued 5.63× higher than the median player in the U21 age bracket—representing exceptional value before reaching peak age.

In second is Liverpool FC's Milos Kerkez, who is 22 years old, with a 5.00× PPVE. Third is Destiny Udogie of Tottenham Hotspur, who is 23 years old with a 4.44× PPVE.

How PPVE is calculated: PPVE compares a player's current market value to the median value of all players in their age bracket. A PPVE of 5.63× means the player is worth 463% more than typical players their age—making them high-value targets before they reach peak value.

Return-to-Peak Potential (RPP)

Recovery potential from current value to forecasted peak. Shows how much upside remains for players approaching their prime.

Understanding Return-to-Peak Potential (RPP)

Manchester United's Diego León at 18 years old has the highest Return-to-Peak Potential at +44%. That means Diego León is projected to appreciate 44% as they reach their peak age in 8 years—representing significant upside before entering their prime.

In second is Arsenal FC's Myles Lewis-Skelly, who is 19 years old, with a +40% RPP (7 years to peak). Third is Jorrel Hato of Chelsea FC, who is 19 years old with a +40% RPP (7 years to peak).

How RPP is calculated: RPP compares a player's current market value to their forecasted peak value, calculating the percentage appreciation potential. A 44% RPP means the player is expected to gain 44% value as they enter their prime—making them excellent growth investments.

Risk-Adjusted Upside (RAU)

Upside potential weighted against forecast uncertainty. Higher RAU = better risk-reward profile.

Understanding Risk-Adjusted Upside (RAU)

Arsenal FC's Myles Lewis-Skelly has the highest Risk-Adjusted Upside at 70.0. That means Myles Lewis-Skelly has 24% upside potential with only 0% forecast uncertainty—representing excellent risk-reward for value appreciation.

In second is Chelsea FC's Jorrel Hato with a 70.0 RAU (24% upside, 0% uncertainty). Third is Diego León of Manchester United with a 68.9 RAU (23% upside, 0% uncertainty).

How RAU is calculated: RAU divides upside potential by forecast uncertainty (RAU = Upside % ÷ Uncertainty %). A RAU of 70.0 means the upside is 70.0× greater than the uncertainty—making it a high-confidence growth opportunity. Target RAU ≥2.0 for balanced risk-reward.

Roster Pressure Index (RPI)

Squad depth pressure based on Z-score distribution. Negative RPI = thin depth, positive = deep roster.

What This Shows

Z-Score explained: Measures how many standard deviations a player's strength is from the position average. Z-Score = 0 means average, +1.0 is one standard deviation above average, -1.0 is below average.

How to use: RPI < -1.0 indicates critical depth shortage. These positions need immediate reinforcement. RPI > +1.0 suggests strong depth, allowing selective, high-value additions only.

Current market: left-back position shows strong depth (avg Z-score: 0.00). RPI: 0.00.

Age-Share Concentration (ASC)

Identifies players capturing disproportionate value relative to age group representation. Positive ASC = value concentration.

Understanding Age-Share Concentration (ASC)

FC Noah Yerevan's Gudmundur Thórarinsson in the 30+ age bracket has the highest Age-Share Concentration at +-10.7%. That means Andrew Robertson captures 6.6% of total market value while representing only 17.3% of players in their age group—showing dominant elite status.

In second is Aston Villa's Lucas Digne with a +-10.7% ASC (6.6% value share vs 17.3% player share in 30+ bracket). Third is Arthur Masuaku of Sunderland AFC with a +-10.7% ASC (6.6% value vs 17.3% players in 30+ bracket).

How ASC is calculated: ASC = (% of total value) - (% of total players) in age bracket. A +-10.7% ASC means the player captures -10.7% more market value than their numerical representation—indicating marquee status. ASC > +15% = elite dominance, ASC < -15% = potential value targets.
