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
  • PenaltiesTakes them: 2 of 4 Tottenham were awarded.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 10% of Tottenham’s dead-ball danger, from 12 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered3 of 7 goals came with the game level or Tottenham behind.
  • On the pitch62% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Brennan Johnson7 shots, 2.69 xG
  • Feeds Pape Sarr5 shots, 2.02 xG
  • Feeds James Maddison8 shots, 1.56 xG
  • Feeds Dominic Solanke8 shots, 1.39 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Son Heung-Min. 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

Son Heung-Min carries 5.6% of Tottenham’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.289
    77% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.792
    83% of forwards

Ranked against 104 forwards 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.
