In this post we used the libraries:

library(ggplot2)
library(plyr)
library(knitr)

We loaded the following datasets:

data_path <- "data/"
df <- read.csv(paste(data_path, 'fifa-rank.csv', sep = ''),)
df2 <- read.csv(paste(data_path, 'fifa-prog.csv', sep = ''),)

In this post we do not use tables, we only make several visualizations in an ordered way. We use the factor() and order() functions in order to organize the observations.

Clean Sheets

cs <- df[order(df$CS), c("Team","CS")]
cs <- subset(cs, CS >0)
cs$Team <- factor(cs$Team, levels = cs$Team, ordered = TRUE)
q <- ggplot(cs, aes(x = Team, y = CS)) + geom_bar(stat = 'identity', fill="#56B4E9", alpha = "0.7") + theme_bw() + labs(y = 'Clean Sheets')
q <- q + coord_polar()
q <- q + theme(
              axis.line=element_blank()
              ,axis.text.y=element_blank()
              ,axis.ticks=element_blank()
              ,axis.title.x=element_blank()
              ,axis.title.y=element_blank()
              ,panel.border=element_blank()
  )

Goal Difference

gd <- df2[order(df2$GD), ]
gd$Team <- factor(gd$Team, levels = gd$Team, ordered = TRUE)
ggplot(gd, aes(x = Team, y = GD, fill = Team)) + geom_bar(stat = 'identity', position = 'identity', fill="#56B4E9", alpha = "0.7")  + theme_bw() + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90)) + labs(y = 'Goal Difference')

Points

pts <- df2[order(df2$Pts), ]
pts$Team <- factor(pts$Team, levels = pts$Team, ordered = TRUE)
ggplot(pts, aes(x = Team, y = Pts, fill = Team)) + geom_bar(stat = 'identity', fill="#56B4E9", alpha = "0.7") + theme_bw() + theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90)) + labs(y = 'Points')
