Involvement in build-up

excludes their own shots and final passes

Nico Elvedi carries 10.1% of Leeds’ build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.176
    25% of defenders
  • Possession value per 900.298
    38% of defenders

Thin sample. Only 416 minutes, so this describes a cameo. 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 rather than the chance.

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 3 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. 416 minutes leaves every tie here broken.
