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 crosses5 crosses from open play became shots, worth 0.79 xG.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 18% of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ dead-ball danger, from 18 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered10 of 15 goals came with the game level or Wolverhampton Wanderers behind.
  • On the pitch77% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Jørgen Strand Larsen12 shots, 1.31 xG
  • Feeds Pablo Sarabia4 shots, 0.99 xG
  • Feeds João Gomes8 shots, 0.95 xG
  • Fed by Rayan Ait Nouri18 shots, 1.63 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Matheus Cunha. 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

Matheus Cunha carries 8.1% of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.244
    66% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.620
    50% of forwards

Ranked against 104 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.
