Where the points come from

Appearance457%
Assists343%

57% of his points earned came from appearance. That is a narrow base — if it stops, most of the return stops with it. 7 earned

Are the returns real?

Too few minutes this season to say whether his returns are backed by the chances — 167 played, and a gap needs about 900 before it means anything.

Across 3 full seasons on record he has finished above expectation 1 time and below it 2.

Full seasons on record
2024/25 1.8
2023/24 +3.8
2022/23 3.1

Goals and assists minus xGI, per season. Positive means he finished above the chances he had.

Defensive Contribution

He averages 3.7 against a line of 12, so DefCon is not a realistic source of points for him.

Early trend

Not the model — that needs a longer form window and opens once he has 8 gameweeks behind him. This is simply what he has actually scored so far.
