What they are for

Roles

  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 8% of Burnley’s dead-ball danger, from 3 deliveries that became shots.
  • On the pitch41% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Lyle Foster1 shot, 0.57 xG

  • Feeds Zian Flemming2 shots, 0.22 xG
  • Fed by James Ward-Prowse1 shot, 0.34 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Lucas Pires. 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

Lucas Pires carries 3.3% of Burnley’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.152
    18% of defenders
  • Possession value per 900.248
    37% of defenders

Ranked against 119 defenders 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.
