I see some of the same issues with hockey. How do I evaluate my defensive defensemen? Obviously goal scorers are easy. If they score, they are doing their job. I don't own Football Manger. How does it help you evaluate guys? I don't have a great deal of knowledge about soccer, but it seems to me that their would not be a great deal of stats to help you.

Hope that makes sense.
FM gives you an "average rating" for every player, every game. It's out of 10, so if your defender gets a 7 for example, he has played well. EHM did much the same, although it did tend to under-rate defensive minded players
