Cross-League Performance Projection

LOG (Level of Game) contextualizes performance across leagues of differing quality using Empire FGA's Competition_Tier_Base reference. Mac Allister's current FGA of 6.6 is a T1-based proxy โ€” all Tier 3 metrics remain unvalidated. The projection assumes his current output (34 starts, 7.39 rating, 112 tackles) translates proportionally to higher leagues.

Methodology

Formula: LOG-Adjusted Score = Base FGA ร— (Current League Tier รท Target League Tier).
Premier League: 6.6 ร— (2.6 รท 3.7) = 6.1
Bundesliga: 6.6 ร— (2.6 รท 3.6) = 6.2

Read before sending to a club: this projection is based on Tier 1 data only. Mac Allister's defensive metrics (112 tackles, 53 interceptions) and passing accuracy (84%) suggest he could function as a reliable centre-back at a higher level. T3 validation is required to determine whether the defensive positioning and decision-making translate to higher leagues.

โ—† Empire FGA Verdict (Provisional)

FGA 6.6 (PROXY) โ€” ESTABLISHED PRO LEAGUE STARTER ยท ARGENTINA INTERNATIONAL ยท T3 PENDING. Kevin Mac Allister is a 28-year-old Argentine centre-back who has established himself as a reliable starter for Union SG. With 34 starts, 2,930 minutes and a Sofascore average of 7.39 in the 2025-26 Pro League, he has proven his durability and consistency. His defensive metrics (112 tackles, 53 interceptions, 142 clearances) and passing accuracy (84%) suggest a well-rounded profile. All Tier 3 metrics remain unvalidated โ€” the card is provisional pending video assessment. If the T3 validates the defensive positioning and decision-making, Mac Allister could be a valuable target for clubs needing an experienced, reliable centre-back. However, the 11 yellow cards, 1 red card indicate discipline is a concern, and his 175cm height may be a limitation against elite aerial opposition. Recommended for clubs needing a reliable, experienced squad option with good defensive fundamentals. Not recommended for clubs requiring a dominant aerial presence or a younger player with development runway.
