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 0.65 xG.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 16% of Everton’s dead-ball danger, from 28 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered2 of 3 goals came with the game level or Everton behind.
  • On the pitch85% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Dominic Calvert-Lewin20 shots, 2.81 xG
  • Feeds James Tarkowski8 shots, 1.64 xG
  • Feeds Jack Harrison5 shots, 1.26 xG
  • Feeds Amadou Onana5 shots, 1.09 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Dwight McNeil. 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

Dwight McNeil carries 7.4% of Everton’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.165
    11% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 900.454
    50% of midfielders

Ranked against 128 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.
