Gilles Dewaele, the 28-year-old right midfielder of Standard Liege, is evidently a steady presence on the pitch in Pro League A, although his game suffers from some significant drawbacks. His progressive passing lands in the upper half of his peers, reaching the 51.4 percentile, hinting at a player not afraid to initiate daring play in the pursuit of a breakthrough. This is further supported by the fact his pass accuracy per 90 stands at a notable 82.35 percentile. However, his ability to influence games in the final third appears underwhelming, with dreadfully low percentiles in areas like chance creation (2.86%) and progressive carrying (8.57%), indicating a relatively risk-averse style of play. Critically, his goal threat and goal efficiency waver at just 14.29% and 25.71% respectively – numbers that underline a key weakness in converting opportunities. Disconcertingly, his rate of successful dribbles per 90 (in the bottom 8.82 percentile) suggests that he seldom takes on or beats opponents. This places further question marks over his dynamism and inventiveness, elements needed to unlock tight defences. Dewaele's numbers express the image of a player who is more comfortable sticking to a script rather than looking to carve out the unexpected - a trait which may limit him from leaving a more profound imprint on games in the pressures of the Pro League A.
