Tomáš Souček Scout Report
Tomáš Souček is an interesting defensive midfielder who currently plays for West Ham United. Despite his defensive role, he offers strong offensive prowess which is pointed out by his exceptional goal efficiency and goal threat scores. His style is direct and he seems to seize goal opportunities effectively when they come, allowing him to operate further up the pitch as a central or attacking midfielder.
Souček's defending in the penalty box is excellent, a trait which is starkly contrasted by his just average one-on-one defending capability. His aerial duel win percentage is superb too, highlighting his strength in air, most probably owing to his height and physical prowess. Though his pass accuracy is low, indicating potential areas of improvement.
Where Souček falls short significantly is in the areas of ball recovery and retention, with a far below-average score in progressive carrying and passing, hence, limiting his effectiveness in controlling and progressing the ball forward. Despite having fewer touches, his high xG shows his directness in attack. Overall, Souček's impressive goal stats aside, he may need to work on his ball skills to achieve better overall performance as a midfielder.
