Taichi Hara Scout Report
Taichi Hara, thrust into the limelight for Kyoto Sanga FC in Japan's J1 League, plays primarily as a Striker showing a fair degree of versatility on the left flank. Hara, despite his relatively young age, is sure to catch the eye of any scout report, showing impressive promise with some of his on-field metrics. His ability in Progressive Carrying is top-notch, with stats placing him among the top ten percentiles. Defenders find themselves often bamboozled by his dribbling that is spectacularly among the highest ranking performers in this regard. The forward also boasts decent performances in ball recovery and chance creation, reinforcing his attacking prowess.
However, his stats reveal some areas that Hara needs to sharpen to fulfill his potential. His performance as a traditional striker is underwhelming, especially when considering his low percentile for goal efficiency and goal threat metrics. His strike rate, sitting at only 17.24%, portrays a rather disappointing picture of his current goal-scoring abilities. Assisting isn't his strongest suit either, with a tad low assist rate.
Lack of impressive pass accuracy statistics might be a reason that Hara's ball retention score isn't too praiseworthy, landing him in the bottom 10% of players in his position within the league. Hara's playing style showcases him as a promising star, but taming the ball under pressure is something he needs to emphasize on training grounds. With the right improvements, Hara could turn into a more rounded frontman, dynamically contributing to his team's attack.
