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 0.90 xG.
  • Corners and set piecesSupplies 10% of Brentford’s dead-ball danger, from 7 deliveries that became shots.
  • When it mattered6 of 7 goals came with the game level or Brentford behind.
  • On the pitch67% of the minutes available to them.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Thiago6 shots, 2.46 xG
  • Feeds Kevin Schade5 shots, 1.05 xG
  • Fed by Thiago6 shots, 1.35 xG
  • Fed by Mathias Jensen7 shots, 1.32 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Dango Ouattara. 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

Dango Ouattara carries 2.9% of Brentford’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.099
    22% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.518
    50% of forwards

Ranked against 109 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.

Tackles, blocks and recoveries

Rates from 2,271 minutes, ranked against 149 midfielders with a comparable sample. The feed publishes season totals rather than a match-by-match record, so there is no hit rate against a line here. That needs the distribution, which no arithmetic on a total can recover. This statistic begins in 2025/26, so there is no earlier season to compare against.
