T3 Status
0 of 16 T3 sub-metrics confirmed (❌ PENDING). No video assessment has been completed for Romano Postema. All scores on this card are Tier 1 + Tier 2 proxy estimates derived from statistical output in the Eerste Divisie. Tier 3 video assessment is required before this card can be used for any recruitment or comparison decision. See FGA Analytics tab for full proxy score breakdown.
Empire FGA Verdict (Proxy Only)
FGA 6.8 (PROXY — T3 PENDING) — STATISTICAL OUTPUT ONLY, NO VIDEO VALIDATION. Postema's 24 goals and 7 assists in 3,097 minutes is an outstanding return for a striker at any level. However, the Keuken Kampioen Divisie is a Tier 2.2 league. Without video assessment, the system cannot distinguish between genuine elite movement/finishing and league-level statistical inflation. Tier 3 validation is the only way to know whether this output translates to higher levels.

Next Steps

3. Score all 16 Tier 3 sub-metrics against the OBI/SII rubrics.
Cross-League Performance Projection
LOG (Level of Game) contextualizes performance across leagues of differing quality using Empire FGA's Competition_Tier_Base reference. Postema's current FGA of 6.8 is a Tier 1 + Tier 2 proxy estimate only. The projection assumes this statistical output translates proportionally to other leagues — this is a directional estimate only.
Methodology
Formula: LOG-Adjusted Score = Base FGA × (Current League Tier ÷ Target League Tier).
Eredivisie: 6.8 × (2.2 ÷ 2.8) = 5.3
Belgian Pro League: 6.8 × (2.2 ÷ 2.6) = 5.8
Critical limitation: This projection uses only Tier 1 statistical output. Without Tier 3 video validation, the system cannot assess whether Postema's movement, finishing, and decision-making would translate to a stronger league. Do not use this projection for recruitment decisions.
Top 10 Philosophy Fits (Proxy)
Tactical Archetype (Proxy)
"The Young Poacher" — A 24-year-old centre-forward who has emerged as a prolific force in the Eerste Divisie, averaging a goal every 129 minutes. His movement and finishing appear instinctive. Tier 3 validation is required to confirm if his off-ball intelligence and speed can translate to a higher level.

Physical Profile
Injury & Medical History
✓ Positive Filters (Statistical)
- 24 goals in 3,097 minutes — prolific goal-scoring rate of 0.70 per 90

⚠ Caution Signals (Statistical)
- Keuken Kampioen Divisie is a Tier 2.2 league — LOG adjustment significantly lowers cross-league projection
- Unproven at Eredivisie level — all goals came in the second tier; needs to prove translation to top flight
- Playstyle reliance — success in Eerste Divisie doesn't always equate to translation in higher-paced leagues
✗ Critical Gaps
- 16/16 T3 metrics unconfirmed — no video assessment has been completed
- No movement intelligence data — OBI, SII, DMA, SPI all pending
- No mental/character read — CHR, MCS, CRS have zero events
- Match link available but not reviewed — 0 matches scored
