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
  • When it mattered3 of 10 goals came with the game level or Liverpool behind.
  • On the pitch34% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Darwin Núñez5 shots, 1.00 xG
  • Feeds Curtis Jones1 shot, 0.95 xG
  • Fed by Conor Bradley2 shots, 0.81 xG
  • Fed by Virgil van Dijk1 shot, 0.73 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Diogo Jota. 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

Diogo Jota carries 2.7% of Liverpool’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.411
    92% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.950
    90% of forwards

Ranked against 107 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.
