FBCharts

This extension transforms FBref.com's scouting reports into football radar and comparison charts, improving the site's viewing experience for football fans and enthusiasts.

[Basics]

⚽️ Once installed, navigate to a scouting report on fbref.com (e.g. https://fbref.com/en/players/aded8e6f/scout/12229/Riccardo-Calafiori-Scouting-Report) and a radar chart will be rendered next to the player's stats.

⚽️ To view a player's radar chart in a different season or competition, simply go to the player's complete scouting report (e.g. https://fbref.com/en/players/d70ce98e/scout/365_m2/Lionel-Messi-Scouting-Report), where you can select different seasons or competitions that the player has been a part of, and the radar chart will be rendered accordingly.

[Chart comparisons]

⚽️ To compare against a similar player, click on “Compare” in the “FBcharts” column under FBref's "Similar Players".

⚽️ To compare against any other players, simply navigate to their profiles. As you browse through their profiles, they will appear under the "recently browsed" section and can be selected for comparison.

⚽️ You can also compare players against themselves by navigating to their scouting reports from prior seasons.

[Select player template]

⚽️ You can select a template best suited to the player by clicking onto a positional pin in the football pitch UI, and the stats will update automatically.
