Simulated Premier League player statistics dataset (2007/08 – 2023/24)

This dataset was generated as part of Practical Exercise 1 of the Data Typology and Lifecycle course, within the UOC's Master's in Data Science.

The objective of the project is to demonstrate the operation of an automated scraper developed with Python and Selenium to extract historical statistics of Premier League players from the 2007/08 season to 2023/24.

This file contains simulated data.To avoid potential conflicts with intellectual property or privacy rights, the original personal and sports data has been replaced with automatically generated fictitious values. Although masked, private use is preferred. The structure, format, and statistical consistency have been maintained for educational and demonstration purposes.

The original scraper dynamically accessed the official Premier League website (https://www.premierleague.com/stats) to extract information such as:

Player name

Position

Nationality

Date of birth

Height

Season

Club

Seasonal statistics:

Goals

Goal assist

Clean sheet

Appearances

Mins played

Yellow cards

Red cards

Total pass

This simulated dataset retains that structure but does not contain any real data.It can be used as a basis for testing, data analysis training, or documentation of the scraping process.

本数据集系加泰罗尼亚开放大学（UOC）数据科学硕士项目中《数据类型学与生命周期》课程实践作业1的生成成果。

本项目旨在演示基于Python与Selenium开发的自动化爬虫的运行逻辑，该爬虫用于提取2007/08赛季至2023/24赛季英格兰足球超级联赛（Premier League）球员的历史统计数据。

本文件包含模拟数据。为规避潜在的知识产权与隐私权冲突，原始个人及赛事数据已被替换为自动生成的虚构数值。尽管已做脱敏处理，仍建议仅供私人使用。出于教学与演示目的，本数据集完整保留了原始数据的结构、格式与统计一致性。

原始爬虫通过动态访问英超官方统计网站（https://www.premierleague.com/stats）提取以下信息：

- 球员姓名
- 场上位置
- 国籍
- 出生日期
- 身高
- 参赛赛季
- 所属俱乐部

赛季统计指标包括：

- 进球数
- 助攻数
- 零封场次
- 出场次数
- 出场时长
- 黄牌数
- 红牌数
- 总传球数

本模拟数据集保留了上述数据结构，但未包含任何真实数据，可作为测试、数据分析训练或爬虫流程文档编写的基础素材。
