Dario Van den Buijs Scout Report

Dario Van den Buijs has had an exceptional season at the heart of RKC Waalwijk's defense in the Eredivisie. His analysis truly testifies the robust nature of his playing style. Royal in his ball recovery abilities, he ranks in the prestigious 93rd percentile amongst his Eredivisie counterparts. His aerial prowess and dueling skills keep the defensive front secure - being in the 93rd and 95th percentiles respectively. With 78.18% touches, Van den Buijs is often in possession, reflecting his significant command over the game. However, he does have some room to weave improvement into his tapestry of skills. Possessing the ball isn't of much use unless you can maintain it, and with ball retention sitting at a lowly 15.78%, this may be a sticking point in an otherwise solid defender. His pass accuracy, lingering in the 26.36 percentile, also raises eyebrows, suggesting that his distributions may often find themselves off the mark. His scouting report paints a picture of a player who thrives in the defensive third (49.77%) and the midfield (46.3%), but steps into attacking territory infrequently (4.49%). This combined with poor chance creation stats confirms a conservative, defensive-minded style of play - understandable considering his position but worthy of note. In summary, Van den Buijs is a reliable bulwark at the back with outstanding ball recovery, aerial skills, duel-winning abilities, and feel for the game. A need for improvement in ball retention and pass accuracy, however, could make this good defender great. An armour with a few chinks, the Belgian center back is as solid as they come, but can't afford to rest on his laurels.
