Silvester van der Water Scout Report

Despite Silvester van der Water's noticeable physical presence on the right wing, the Dutchman remains somewhat of an enigma in the Eredivisie, particularly in the 2023-2024 season. At 27, the PEC Zwolle winger appears to have plateaued in his development, evidenced by his performance statistics. Possession-based aspects of van der Water's game yield concern; the winger dramatically underperforms in ball recovery (26.98%) and ball retention (25.39%), illustrating an uphill battle when rival defences apply pressure. Distinctly worrisome is his chance creation percentile at a mere 7.94% and his progressive passing which stands at a dismal 12.69%; figures that highlight tactical limitations and question his creative contributions to the attack. Van der Water's goal threat (53.97%) and xG per 90 (50%) do, however, signal a capacity to move forward with a certain sense of purpose and precision. Moreover, his 72.58% percentile ranking in shots per 90 display a player unafraid to pull the trigger when the opportunity arises. Perhaps his most glaring deficiency occurs in ball-handling, with a dispossessed per 90 rate of 69.35%, compounded further by an alarmingly low successful dribbles per 90 score of just 9.68%, he consistently struggles to penetrate defensive lines. In the age of dynamic wingers, van der Water appears constrained, a traditional figure in a rapidly evolving role. While he asserts himself periodically, evident through his goal efficiency percentile of 41.26% and decent successful cross rate of 46.77%, the lack of consistency remains an obstacle in van der Water's journey towards reaching the elite.
