Is it worth the effort? Understanding and contextualizing physical metrics in soccer
We present a framework that gives a deep insight into the link between physical and technical-tactical aspects of soccer and it allows associating physical performance with value generation thanks to a top-down approach. First, we estimate physical indicators from tracking data. Then, we contextualize each player's run to understand better the purpose and circumstances in which it is done, adding a new dimension to the creation of team and player profiles. Finally, we assess the value-added by off-ball high-intensity runs by linking with a possession-value model. This novel approach allows answering practical questions from very different profiles of practitioners within a soccer club, from analysts, coaches, and scouts to physical coaches and readaptation physiotherapists.
