Jacob Bruun Larsen Scout Report

Jacob Bruun Larsen, a young 24 year old left midfielder from Denmark, is showing marked strengths in Burnley's Premier League team. With an impressive propensity for goal efficiency and threat, Larsen's abilities to capitalize on opportunities in the opponent's half are prominent. His touches are reasonably high, which attribute to his above-average goal threat along with a high number of shots; this seems to suggest a direct attacking style of play. Larsen's stats also depict a balanced ability in ball recovery and progressive carrying, indicating that he is competent in retrieving and retaining possession. Furthermore, while he may not be the creator of offensive opportunities according to his chance creation, his high goal threat, supported by a high percentile in expected goals (xG), suggests he is often in the right place at the right time to make critical contributions. However, there are areas of improvement as well. His ball retention, one vs one defending, and penalty area defending are slightly below par. Larsen might also need to work on his duel win ratio and aerial duel success, which is notably low. Moreover, his pass accuracy seems wanting, suggesting a more focused training on decision making might be beneficial. It would also be intriguing to observe his improvement in the assist aspect of his game, which is considerably low for a player who is so often in scoring positions.
