Jonathan de Guzmán Scout Report

Jonathan de Guzmán, at 36, is a seasoned defensive midfielder for Sparta Rotterdam in the Eredivisie league. According to our scout report, de Guzmán functions as a conduit, taking the ball forward with significant progressive carrying and passing capabilities, ranking in the remarkable eightieth- and two-thirds percentile respectively. This style of play sees him retaining possession for his team, as evidenced by his higher percentile in touches. These standout strengths make him a formidable midfield operator who fluidly bridges defense and attack. Adequate in chance creation and ball retention, he's no slouch in these departments either. Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge areas that could benefit from improvement. In terms of defensive duels, de Guzmán is trailing the pack quite notably, falling into the lower fifth percentile. This questions his effectiveness in out-and-out defensive situations. He also demonstrates a noticeably aggressive style of play, as evidenced through a high percentile of yellow cards, indicating potentially costly disciplinary failings. De Guzmán plays the lion's share of his football in the midfield third but isn't afraid to help out in the back as well, though the player activity data suggest a minimal contribution in the attacking penalty area. So, whilst his goal threat and efficiency aren't soaring, his critical function within the team's style of play shouldn't be understated. He's an old-guard field marshal, simultaneously patching up the defense and sparking the offense.
