Rates use nominal regulation minutes (45 + 45); recorded stoppage-time actions remain in the numerator. Unresolved participation conflicts exclude the whole player-season profile.

Wyscout provides broad roles only: DEF, MID and FWD. Detailed positions are not inferred. Goalkeepers have native profiles only.

Cross-provider nearest-neighbour rankings are not published. Three shared measures and detectable provider effects do not establish player-style equivalence.
