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.

What they are for

Roles

penalties, set pieces, crossing, partnerships
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 10% of Brighton’s dead-ball danger, from 2 deliveries that became shots.
  • On the pitch96% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Mats Wieffer1 shot, 0.08 xG
  • Feeds Yasin Ayari1 shot, 0.05 xG
  • Fed by Georginio Rutter1 shot, 0.91 xG
  • Fed by Pascal Groß2 shots, 0.17 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Maxim De Cuyper. 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

Maxim De Cuyper carries 9.0% of Brighton’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.479
    0% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 901.239
    0% of midfielders

Thin sample. Only 173 minutes, so this describes a cameo. 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.
