Timo Hübers Scout Report

In this latest scout report, we turn our attention to FC Köln's ferocious battler at the back, the German center back, Timo Hübers. Dominating defensive duels and prolific in ball recoveries, Hübers has etched his place among Bundesliga's top defenders with his defensive tenacity and assertive nature. Statistical evidence of his combative style is clear to see. His 97.3 percentile ranking in Ball Recovery showcases an uncanny ability to sniff out danger and retain possession for his team. His exceptional aerial prowess, backed by an impressive 84.93 percentile ranking, makes him a formidable presence under high balls - a trait every centre-back should ideally possess. His high interception rate further articulates his intuitive reading of the game. Yet, a slight caveat to his defensive brilliance is his tendency to commit fouls, ranking in the high 78th percentile. This, though a part of his aggressive style of play, is something he must work upon, especially against crafty forwards who are adept at drawing fouls. Averting our gaze from defensive involvements, we see an interesting facet to his game. Hübers ranks unexpectedly high in goal threat percentile for a center back, suggesting a hidden strength when venturing forward during set pieces. Meanwhile, his involvement in the build-up play is middling, reflected by a balanced figure for touches. Despite low assist and goal per 90 percentages, Hübers seems to be decently involved in the team's progressive play as hinted by his progressive carrying percentile. We surveil a player who excels in defending his turf but could potentially moderate his aggression to avoid unnecessary fouls. Venturing more into the opponent's third could be something to explore based on his goal threat stats but, overall, Timo Hübers presents an archetype of a sturdy and reliable center back who forms the tower of defence for FC Köln.
