Fan Rating
Rate Marcel Hartel — All-Time
VAL (Value Above League) measures each MLS season against that season's league; the dashed line is zero — a season that added nothing above the league's fringe. ● peak · ○ league-best season.
2.9 career wins over 3 seasons · 1 win = 9.33 VAL
Best season · 2025 · +1.4 wins
1.4 of STL's 8 wins (18%)
Latest season · 2026 · +0.9 wins
0.9 of STL's 14 wins so far (7%)
VAL 3.0 measures each part of a MLS player's game in his sport's own currency against what that season's fringe players produced, converted to team wins with rates fitted from every team-season in the encyclopedia. Team wins are the club's actual regular-season wins; a traded season, or one whose club record is missing, shows no share.
How often Marcel Hartel led or placed top-ten on a MLS season board, and the shape of the career — computed from the same per-season boards the year pages publish, so every number is checkable.
