The top 15
Rank score is 0 to 100: how a player compares with every player at his position in his own league with enough minutes, of any age, where 50 is the middle and 100 the best. It is relative to that league, so a 70 in Ligue 1 and a 70 in the Premier League are each measured against a different league.
