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
  • Open-play crosses6 crosses from open play became shots, worth 1.50 xG.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 7% of Arsenal’s dead-ball danger, from 11 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered3 of 6 goals came with the game level or Arsenal behind.
  • On the pitch60% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Kai Havertz10 shots, 2.23 xG
  • Feeds Bukayo Saka3 shots, 0.98 xG
  • Fed by Bukayo Saka9 shots, 1.73 xG
  • Fed by Jorginho4 shots, 0.74 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Gabriel Martinelli. 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

Gabriel Martinelli carries 4.1% of Arsenal’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.291
    68% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.736
    65% 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.
