vs Arsenal

Mon 31 Aug, 19:00 UTC

Arsenal concede 8.6 shots a match and are 0.74× the league norm against midfielders. A difficult one.

Projected shots
0.59

Projected on target

0.23 per 90 × 0.46

Season rate multiplied by what this opponent concedes relative to the league. It assumes a full ninety minutes and takes no account of rotation, so check availability before reading anything into it.

Share of appearances clearing each line, with one standard error. Blank appearances count as misses, 15 of 34 here, so these are lower, and more honest, than rates built only from matches where the player got a shot away.

A share of the attack says how much runs through João Gomes. These say what would have to be replaced. Losing the penalty taker or the corner deliverer is not the same as losing a proportional slice of output, and a partnership cuts both ways: the supplier being absent damages the finisher’s numbers too.

Season record

Involvement in build-up

excludes their own shots and final passes

João Gomes carries 6.4% of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.155
    9% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 900.211
    6% of midfielders

Ranked against 128 midfielders with a comparable sample. Build-up is the value of possessions a player was involved in with their own shots and final passes removed, so it credits the work before the chance. It is a possession-value measure rather than a passing one: it cannot tell a forty-yard carry from two sideways balls, because no pass or carry record exists in this data.
