Spurs
How he ranks
33 games · 141 midfielders
xGI is what drags him — 17th of 141, against 84th for points.
Minutes and bonus
Where the points come from
40% of his points earned came from appearance. No single source dominates, though bonus tends to follow whichever one leads. 134 earned, 126 net
Are the returns real?
He is beating his expected numbers by +4.6 over 2192 minutes.
His record does not repeat it — across 2 full seasons he has finished above expectation 1 time and below it 1.
Goals and assists minus xGI, per season. Positive means he finished above the chances he had.
Defensive Contribution
He averages 9.2 against a line of 12 — close enough that a busy game gets him there, but not reliably.
Against each level of opponent
His return barely moves with the difficulty of the opponent.
1 is the easiest opponent, 5 the hardest. Bracketed figure is appearances at that level.

What the model expects
From the same expected-points model that runs across the whole player pool — an estimate per gameweek, not a prediction of any single one.
Direction = last five gameweeks vs the five before. The model is injury-blind.
