Wow , on course for Arsenal poty
Data point starts from 01.01.2021, not from the beginning of the season. Otherwise Jorginho wouldn't lead the premier league players (mainly because of his importance/performance for Tuchel).Wow , on course for Arsenal poty
No wonder we're 9th. Congrats to him thoughWow , on course for Arsenal poty

When you say "not among the final passers" is that assist or assist to assist as in the stat above? Just so I understand what this is in reference to.Well, that's not true either. Looking at the whole build-up he actually ranks very highly in the premier league (~Top 5, so does Rodri). Lots of final third entries, but not among the final passers (tbf even less so this year as we have a reliable 10 again).

Big chances created is determined by the final pass before a shot at goal though, that's not Xhakas role in the team.If we go by eye test, most of those forward passes to final third have been to Tierney who is running on the wings. If his forward passes had any impact on our attacking play, he would have good number of big chances created, which is very less.
I watch the game. I don't think he makes so many vertical passes. Most passes he makes are to Tierney who is running on the flanks. He can pass it to ESR or Øde only if they track back and make it totally easy for him to make the pass. His through balls count is abysmal compared to most midfielders in PL.Big chances created is determined by the final pass before a shot at goal though, that's not Xhakas role in the team.
This season he has been sitting extremely deep most games, he shouldn't be playing the final pass before most of our chances.
His numbers for passes into the final third and progressive passes gaining the team yards up the pitch vertically are very good this season. Which is what he should be doing in the role he's playing - not laying it on a plate for Auba.
Criticising him for his lack of pace, rash defensive decision making and high profile errors is completely fair. But anyone saying his passing is poor, or that he only ever goes backwards or sideways with the ball needs to actually watch our games and not read nonsense opinions on twitter.

Is there a stat for into the opposition pen box also? And by 90 min. played?

Sky Germany are reporting that Xhaka fancies a return to the Bundesliga. Hopefully, we continue the midfield rebuild properly if he goes.
If he goes I think we will convert to a 433. He’s probably the one cog that is holding us back from doing so imo.Sky Germany are reporting that Xhaka fancies a return to the Bundesliga. Hopefully, we continue the midfield rebuild properly if he goes.

Basically he can make a pass forward if there is a player who is right in front of him and there is a clear path. He can't do even that if he is pressed. The moment someone charges towards him, he does an about turn and gives it back to someone else. And even if he does make that pass, he takes that extra fraction of time to get the ball under his control and mentally make that decision. If this is all we expect from a DLP as his fans call him, no wonder the club is at this place.
Passing is not just about numbers. Anyone can just play ping pong with another player in the front and pad up those numbers.
When he passes to Tierney, it does count into the metric.Progressive passes are vertical passes, and he has more per 90 than any other midfielder in the league other than De Bruyne. 'Stat padding' by playing one twos with centre backs and Tierney won't come into the equation with this metric.
The radar above shows that these vertical passes are consistently gaining the team yards up the pitch as well.
We need you on the club’s negotiating team this summer. Do Kolasinac next abeg
Percentage refers to how much more likely a team is to score from their passes on the second one.
The kind of stats that StatsDNA pushed out and made us sign this fraud I guess.
Set to "Premier League" for a surprise.
Also ignore Thiago being there for Liverpool
