Anthony Elanga Scout Report
Anthony Elanga is a Right Winger for Nottingham Forest in the Premier League who has had quite an impressive season at just 21 years old. He displayed versatility being used as a left winger and striker as well. His most notable strength is his one-on-one defending skills, proving himself to be a formidable challenging player for misdirected opposition. When it comes to striking the ball, there's a decent level of threat he can pose to opposing goal-keepers, with a slightly above average chance creation, fuelling his good rate of assists.
However, some key areas of his game could use some improvement. Ball recovery and retention are less than satisfactory, often losing the ball or struggling to regain it on the pitch. This subpar ball handling does affect his progressive carrying and passing metrics which are relatively low, indicating his less than ideal efficiency in advancing the ball upfield.
In his aerial duels, Elanga has a near average winning rate and with direct duels it's a touch over average, showing room for improvement in holding his own against opponents. However, his ability to be in possession of the ball, indicated by his number of touches, is quite low, resulting in fewer opportunities for goal assists or shots. Despite this, he maintains respectable goal expectation and expected assist measures showing his potential for being direct in attack. That said, his pass accuracy is notably poor, which could limit his overall effectiveness on the field.
