Specific events are the isolated based on what attributes are key for certain positions and styles. For a wide attacking playmaker, we look at:Expected goals (shots – open play), Expected assists (key passes), Touches in box (Quality), Short passes (Quality), Through balls (Quality), Passes into box (Quality) and Touches in final third (Quality)
We relate a player’s performance of these combined actions to 100,000+ other players globally to get the headline score. We can also see how the attributes compare. Wilfred Zaha scores 96.7 (meaning he is in the top 4% of wide playmakers globally.)
We can use the individual metrics to see his strengths and weaknesses. From the radar chart we can see Zaha needs to get more touches in the box and score more goals to be the perfect Wide Playmaker.
