Involvement in build-up

excludes their own shots and final passes

Yasin Ayari carries 5.6% of Brighton’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.342
    74% of midfielders
  • Possession value per 900.465
    56% of midfielders

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 12 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.
