What they are for

Roles

penalties, set pieces, crossing, partnerships
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 7% of Newcastle United’s dead-ball danger, from 4 deliveries that became shots.
  • On the pitch40% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Alexander Isak1 shot, 0.52 xG
  • Feeds Bruno Guimarães1 shot, 0.34 xG
  • Fed by Kieran Trippier8 shots, 0.46 xG
  • Fed by Sean Longstaff1 shot, 0.45 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Sven Botman. 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

Sven Botman carries 3.7% of Newcastle United’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.360
    69% of defenders
  • Possession value per 900.360
    61% of defenders

Ranked against 135 defenders 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.
