What they are for

Roles

penalties, set pieces, crossing, partnerships
  • PenaltiesTakes them: 5 of 6 Brighton were awarded.
  • Open-play crosses6 crosses from open play became shots, worth 0.91 xG.
  • When it mattered3 of 9 goals came with the game level or Brighton behind.
  • On the pitch59% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Anssumane Fati5 shots, 1.00 xG
  • Feeds Facundo Buonanotte3 shots, 0.92 xG
  • Feeds Danny Welbeck4 shots, 0.87 xG
  • Fed by Pascal Groß19 shots, 1.51 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through João Pedro. 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

João Pedro carries 4.9% of Brighton’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.337
    78% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.780
    73% 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.
