Nathan Collins Scout Report

In this scout report, we cast our eyes over the rising star Nathan Collins of Brentford, turning heads this Premier League season with astounding performances. Nathan Collins, a 22-year-old center back hailing from the Republic of Ireland, has been a stalwart for Brentford in the heart of their defense, featuring in 32 matches this season. His performances have shown promise, revealing a player with high potential in his age category. When it comes to the nitty-gritty of defending, Collins truly stands out. His exceptional dueling skills demonstrate his combative nature: winning 76% of aerial duels and an outstanding near 90% of all duels, positioning him within the top brack of defenders in the league. This advantage lends itself to his frequent and imposing interceptions, making him a formidable presence for any forward to grapple with. Notably, Collins shows a commendable discipline on the pitch, shading the darker side of defensive work: his low foul and yellow card rates spotlight a defender who knows when to hold back, ensuring his continuous presence on the field. However, this young defender does show room for improvement in his game, particularly in terms of possession. He falls on the lower scale for successfully retaining possession and ensuring accurate passes, which suggests some refinement in ball distribution could help him take his game to new heights. Regardless, this rising star has proven to be somewhat of a goal threat too, an underrated quality for a center back, and his capacity to assist goals is higher than many in his position. While his area of play is predominantly within the defensive third, Collins isn't afraid to venture forward when duty calls, showcasing admirable versatility in his style of play. To sum up, Collins exhibits a robust defensive prowess and goal threat abilities which, coupled with his surprising discipline and boundless potential, makes him a splendid asset in Brentford's backline and a player to watch in the coming seasons.
