Ollie Tanner stands as an intriguing prospect in the Championship, representing Cardiff City. Although only aged 22, Tanner is showing his potential in several key aspects of the game. His highest strength is in Progressive Passing, occupying the 83rd percentile amongst his peers which is significant for his recognized position as a right winger. This shows that Tanner has an excellent understanding of the game, utilizing space and making advanced plays to open up opposition defences.
Additionally, his percentile in the 70s for both Successful Dribbles per 90 and Successful Crosses per 90 demonstrate an adeptness on the ball and considerable competence in crossing, enriching his team's offensive capabilities. Tanner's performance on ball recovery is also impressive, securing a 67.5 percentile rank.
However, the right winger's dark spot lies in his lack of goal threat. Scoring just a 12.98 percentile, Tanner's goal threat remains worryingly scarce, an area that may require plenty of fine-tuning. At the same time, his assists per 90, goals per 90 and xG per 90 are also wanting, registering on average below 40 percentiles. This suggests that despite his passing credentials, Tanner might not be posing the desired impact in the final third.
With his young age and the versatility to fill in as a left back or a right wing-back, Tanner brings substantial promise. If he can bolster his offensive contributions in the final third, we could see him mature into an even more well-rounded and valuable asset for Cardiff City.
