What Is The Midfielder Rating Calculator?
Midfield is the most varied area of the pitch. Some midfielders win the ball, some dictate the tempo and some create chances, and a general player rating can’t tell them apart. The GlobeHour Midfielder Rating Calculator focuses only on what matters in the middle: passing, vision, ball control, reading the game, tackling, stamina, dribbling and long shots.
You get a midfielder overall from 1 to 99, a rating for five midfield roles, an octagon chart of your attributes, a downloadable player card and a training plan based on the attributes that would raise your rating the most. Add your season numbers to see whether your output matches how you rate yourself.
How The Midfielder Overall Is Calculated
Each attribute carries a fixed share of your midfielder overall.
| Attribute | Weight | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Passing | 20% | Short and long passing accuracy |
| Vision | 15% | Spotting runs and key passes early |
| Ball Control | 14% | First touch and keeping the ball under pressure |
| Reading The Game | 12% | Positioning and interceptions |
| Tackling | 10% | Winning the ball cleanly |
| Stamina | 10% | Running hard for 90 minutes |
| Dribbling | 10% | Carrying the ball past opponents |
| Long Shots | 9% | Shooting from the edge of the box |
Overall = the sum of each attribute × its weight, rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, the Playmaker preset (passing 89, vision 88, ball control 85, reading the game 76, tackling 62, stamina 70, dribbling 74, long shots 70) gives a midfielder overall of 79 and a Deep-Lying Playmaker rating of 83.
The 5 Types Of Midfielder
The calculator rates you in five midfield roles, each with its own weighting:
- Deep-Lying Playmaker: controls the game from deep. Passing and vision matter most.
- Ball Winner: breaks up attacks. Tackling and reading the game matter most.
- Box-To-Box: defends and attacks. Stamina matters most, with balanced skills.
- Number 10: creates between the lines. Vision, passing, control and dribbling matter most.
- Complete Midfielder: balanced weights across all eight attributes.
How The Real Stats Check Works
Enter your goals, assists and minutes, and optionally key passes, tackles plus interceptions and pass accuracy. The calculator shows your numbers per 90 minutes and an output score.
- Goals + assists per 90: (goals + assists) × 90 ÷ minutes. 5 goals and 8 assists in 2,700 minutes is 0.43.
- Key passes per 90: 60 key passes in 2,700 minutes is 2.00.
- Tackles + interceptions per 90: 90 in 2,700 minutes is 3.00.
- Output score: a GlobeHour guide: 35 + 40 × goal contributions per 90 + 5 × key passes per 90 + 3 × tackles and interceptions per 90. The example gives 71.
If your output score is far above your overall, you may be underrating yourself. If it’s far below, focus on creating more chances and winning the ball back more often.
Tips To Become A Better Midfielder
- Check your shoulder before you receive the ball, every time.
- Receive on the half-turn so you can play forward quickly.
- Practise passing with both feet over short and long distances.
- Learn to cut passing lanes instead of always diving in.
- Build your stamina with interval running.
- Arrive late in the box to finish cut-backs.
- Keep it simple when you’re under pressure.
- Track your key passes and ball recoveries to see real progress.
