At a club now - managers whose last club is still theirs; # counts only them, World is the full ranking. All ranked - adds managers between clubs, who stay in the ranking while they have a rated match in the last 52 weeks. Coach rating - the part of their teams' rating the model credits to the manager, built from every rated match of their career. It describes results so far; it doesn't predict the next game. Team rating - their club's rating this week. Provisional - under 60 rated matches. A manager needs 30 rated matches to be ranked.

Descriptive, not predictive. The coach rating measures what a manager's teams did against what was expected of them. It doesn't forecast results. How the rating works ›
