Jay Rodriguez Scout Report

Jay Rodriguez is a veteran striker for the Burnley team in the Premier League. With 21 matches under his belt in the 2023-2024 season, he has played 822 minutes in total. Rodriguez possesses distinctive skills in ball recovery, a facet of his play that sits in the top range when compared with his contemporaries. His one vs one defending ability also stands out, which is unusual for a striker and adds an extra layer of value to his team. However, his strengths do not lie in ball retention, chance creation or goal threats, with below average percentile rankings. Progressive carrying and goal efficiency also significantly fall short, which suggests that he might struggle in breaking down defensive lines and converting chances into goals. A closer look at his stats indicate he has a fair duel win percentage and pass accuracy, but his assists and expected assists (xA) are extremely low, flagging a weakness as a playmaker. His limited touches suggest that his interaction with the ball is comparatively less frequent, which might explain his reduced contributions in terms of assists and goals. Despite his age, Rodriguez still exhibits strong defensive skills, but a greater emphasis on offensive training and ball retention might help him improve as a more rounded player.
