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

  • Open-play crosses6 crosses from open play became shots, worth 0.80 xG.

  • Fed by Callum Hudson-Odoi4 shots, 0.96 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Anthony Elanga. 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

Anthony Elanga carries 6.2% of Nottingham Forest’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.208
    53% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.653
    57% 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.
