Appearances
But if you actually look at those, there's not that many clear-cut chances.
Almost two-thirds of them have been from outside the box.
And his overall XG for the season is only 1.9.
It wasn't a problem last season where he scored eight goals.
So I think the problem in that comes down to the fact there's not really another Buendia creating chances for him.
he's getting the ball in the box over three times as much as any other teammate.
If he's already winning the ball back, passing more in the final third and creating significantly more than anyone else for his side, there's no one else going to be doing enough of that to be setting him up with some half-decent chances.
Yeah, he'd caught my eye a little bit this season.
And then it was really, I think Sky put out a piece a couple of weeks ago, last week, of
of each team's MVP.
And I was really taken aback by the amount of comments underneath it that was just endless Chelsea fans saying, no, it's Kovacic, Kovacic, Kovacic.
And I was like, right, I need to actually delve into some of his numbers here and see what he's been doing.
And there's certainly quite a few categories where he's so impressive.
You certainly have to go past just goals and assists for him.
I think he scored just once and he's got five assists in 57 Premier League appearances.
But it's all the work before that that's so important to Chelsea.
And
It's now obviously being appreciated by Chelsea fans and perhaps only a matter of time before it's fully understood in the Premier League.
But if you look at Chelsea overall this season, they've underperformed a little bit in attack in terms of finishing.
They've had the second most shots, actually more than Liverpool.
