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 crosses7 crosses from open play became shots, worth 1.35 xG.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 20% of Nottingham Forest’s dead-ball danger, from 23 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered3 of 6 goals came with the game level or Nottingham Forest behind.
  • On the pitch75% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Nikola Milenkovic7 shots, 0.86 xG
  • Fed by Morgan Gibbs-White6 shots, 1.15 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 5.4% of Nottingham Forest’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.142
    24% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.454
    20% 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.
