Are the returns real?

Too few minutes this season to say whether his returns are backed by the chances — 270 played, and a gap needs about 900 before it means anything.

Across 7 full seasons on record he has finished above expectation 6 times and below it 1.

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

Defensive Contribution

He averages 6 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.
