Bayern Munich’s Dutch international Daniel Van Buyten (left) scored a goal against Mainz 05 yesterday in the Bundesliga to post a huge gain of 13.4 points in the FTBL system and move from 6th to 2nd place in our ranking of defenders. Can we expect further progress?
Bayern are now on a roll; they have lined up 9 straight wins and are back at the top of the table. But only 4 of those wins were goalless, and goalless wins are crucial for the score of a defender. Bayern will be up against champions Wolfsburg in their next game; their last trip there ended in a 1:5 stinging loss.
If Bayern win this time, Van Buyten could boost his score to 120.32 points, given the plank of 7.82 points he faces in the game. Such a score should allow him to capture a spot in the top tier of the world ranking of defenders.
