I picked them and I did so by picking the highest rated players in each position according to team stats: best rated goalkeeper, best pair of centre backs, etc etc, that's why Castillo of RKC is in there as well. But that wasn't based on one or two games, he actually did play 14 out of 18. There were also a goalkeeper from Sparta and a midfielder from Heracles scoring incredibly high, but that was on the basis of one game, probably a successful substitute.
Interesting. I make these lineups myself, as you know, and I don't take much notice of match ratings. I mainly choose from goals and assists, so Brobbey would definitely have been in mine in stead of de Jong, if I had made it. But it's interesting to see other approaches, and with goals/assists playing such a big part of my own choosing, my selection of attacking minded players is often also more accurate than my selection of defenders that is sometimes quite random. I do use number of clean sheets and goals conceded to select from, if no defenders have stood out in other ways. But maybe I should consider looking at the match ratings for defensive players too, providing a more accurate base for selection in the future.
