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.

Roles

Partnerships

  • Fed by Dominic Calvert-Lewin3 shots, 1.40 xG

  • Fed by Jack Harrison1 shot, 0.95 xG
  • Fed by Dwight McNeil8 shots, 0.91 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Abdoulaye Doucouré. 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

Abdoulaye Doucouré carries 7.2% of Everton’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.176
    14% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 900.448
    48% 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.
