    Yet another set of Havertz stats that are impossible to understand lol

    How is he leading this trio in terms of key passes? With so few forward and progressive passes? I also thought he would be higher in terms Duel%, does this include aerial duels?

      His role is by design a low touch one so even if he was playing well in possession (which clearly hasn’t been the case) I would expect to see a similar profile.

        I still find it difficult to comprehend how his key passes are so high when his forward and progressive passes are so low. Quite a few passes can be both progressive and key or forward and key right? Does it mean a lot of his key passes are cut-backs? It seems weird…

      Clive (on Arseblog) made an interesting observation the other day, that Kai is used to passing back as a CF, which is a key pass, but not a progressive one.

      (Incidentally, the same pass that he did for our winner v City)

      Saying that from his years at Chelsea, he’s wired to do a different kind of pass, but hopefully he will push on from that, given time.

        I think that’s how you say it in English. A backwards pass for someone to shoot.
