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: 1 of 4 Manchester United were awarded.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 8% of Manchester United’s dead-ball danger, from 11 deliveries that became shots.
  • On the pitch30% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Joshua Zirkzee1 shot, 0.67 xG
  • Feeds Mason Mount1 shot, 0.52 xG
  • Feeds Matthijs de Ligt2 shots, 0.51 xG
  • Feeds Amad Diallo Traore3 shots, 0.39 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Christian Eriksen. 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

Christian Eriksen carries 6.3% of Manchester United’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.574
    94% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 900.653
    85% of midfielders

Ranked against 137 midfielders 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.
