Lars Olden Larsen Scout Report

Lars Olden Larsen, the lively Norwegian left winger who also slots in on the right side for NEC Nijmegen in the Eredivisie, leaves a mixed bag to analyse. The 25-year-old is an active participant in ball recovery, sitting comfortably in the upper two-thirds percentile, reflecting his tenacious nature on the pitch. His proficiency in chances creation and ball retention leaves much to be desired, landing at a deflating bottom 7% and 5%, respectively, suggesting he might struggle against high press or tight marking from opposing defenders. Larsen's goal threat and efficiency are fairly average, hovering around the 40% mark. However, his shots per 90 metrics point out that he is not averse to testing the goalkeeper, nearly being in the top half of his peers. His surprisingly low figures in the realm of progressive passing, assists per 90, and particularly successful dribbles, the latter barely scraping above 3%, highlight a player with some room to bolster his offensive creativity. His overall low percentile in dispossessions indicates a promising tendency to retain possession under pressure. In summary, while Larsen is competent in recovering the ball and getting shots off, his limited creativity and ability to maintain possession hamper his overall impact as an attacker. With fine-tuning in these areas, he could rise to a higher rating in the attacking ranks of the Eredivisie.
