Osvaldo, the Brazilian left winger currently playing for Vitoria in the Série A, has proven to be an anomaly due to his formidable goal threat despite his advanced age of 37. Sitting impressively within the top quartile (77th percentile), his propensity to find pockets of space within the 18-yard box or take pot-shots from outside are laudable. Yet, there are significant chinks in Osvaldo's ageing armour. His ball recovery and retention rankings are fairly poor, falling at 13th and 7th percentile respectively, revealing how he may not hold up well under intense ball-winning pressure. This echoes more dramatically in his substantially low metrics in chance creation and goal efficiency, where he is in the bottom 7th and 4th percentile respectively - an area where a winger, let alone a striker, should excel, indicating the player's evident fading influence in the offensive third. A major weakness glaringly present in his game revolves around dispossession - he sits uncomfortably high in the 80th percentile for being dispossessed per 90 minutes. This combined with his sub-par dribbling and passing figures pose serious questions about his efficacy in possession. However, his statistical success in progressive carrying and progressive passing, both standing at 50 percentiles, show a mature player who knows when to contribute to build-up play and establish the rhythm of the game. His shot volumes, assist creation, xG per 90, and successful crosses also reflect a player who still holds a palpable threat in the final third. Despite the general declining trend, Osvaldo's experience and mature playing style are the remaining attributes that allow him to influence matches - at least for now.
