In the analysis we can only see that the goalkeepers have high structure but there's no correlation with the performance at this point. Only height of the player and position occupied. And we can see that for instance for this sample, they have more 10 cm than the midfielders. But it's a valid assumption to say that players with higher structure are prefereble by the coaches since they can reach faster and cover more sectors than a person with small structure. But we did not correlate with performance metrics for this small example

But agree with you maybe we can pick up your idea to develop a next post

> Players with a higher structure actually make better goalkeepers

Is that shown anywhere in this analysis? Or is it just conjecture?

(I'd love to see an actual breakdown of GK height/weight vs OPTA stats to see if there's a correlation between "quality" and the physical attributes.)
