Adam Webster Scout Report
Scout report brings Adam Webster, the commanding center back of Brighton and Hove Albion, under the spotlight. On a surface level, Brighton's lynchpin stands tall - he's a player who tends to see the ball a lot, suggesting he's an integral part of the side's play with high 'touches' figure. His progressive carrying and progressive passing stand out with brilliant scores, marking him as an adroit modern center back who loves to venture forward or provide definitive forward passes.
Naturally, being a defender, his prowess in aerial duels is important, and his exceptional ability in winning these duels signifies a major strength. His interception figure is also commendably high, indicative of his strong reading of the game, and his recoveries point towards his quick transition into defense after losses.
However, not all is sunny in Webster's scout report. He seems to have issues in retaining the ball and recouping it - his low stats in ball recovery and retention may be cause for concern especially against high pressing teams. His duel win% is also lower than preferred for a center back.
Webster's goal threat and goal efficiency figures are not particularly impressive. However, expecting a center back to be a regular goal scorer wouldn't be fair, even if he shows a decent knack for chance creation.
In essence, Adam Webster's style of play revolves around a very progressive approach, and his defensive qualities are robust with room for improvement, particularly in the battleground of one-on-one duels. He needs to work on his ball retention, but his performances in the heart of Brighton's defense have generally been solid throughout the season.
