Involvement in build-up

excludes their own shots and final passes

Jean-Philippe Mateta carries 3.8% of Crystal Palace’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.121
    19% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.622
    52% of forwards

Height is shots, solid is on target, and the dashed rule is the 1.5 line. The feed cannot date an appearance with no shot in it, so 4 sits at the end, counted but unplaced.

How to read the ties. Each rate ties back to the league average: solid where the sample is settled, broken where it is still being shrunk toward the league, an open circle where there is no cohort to rank against.
