Danny Welbeck Scout Report

Danny Welbeck, a seasoned striker of Brighton and Hove Albion, is distinguished by his remarkable ability in ball retention which allows him to skilfully maintain possession and control of the game. With fewer touches, he exhibits a direct in attack style, which is a double-edged sword as it lessens his potential for shots, assists, and expected goals (xG). At the same time, his strength in one vs one defending, as highlighted by his 92.3 percentile rating, is striking for a player in an attacking role. However, his goal threat and efficiency remain subpar, pointing to a potential area for improvement given his position. A unique aspect of Welbeck's gameplay is his progressive passing ability that ranks high, signaling his role as a valuable link-up player in offensive set-ups. His prowess in duels and aerial challenges further speaks to his physicality and competitive mindset, whilst his ball recovery ability indicates his pressing game. However, his relatively mediocre ranking in terms of progressive carrying and chance creation might underscore a need to work on his decisiveness and creativeness in the final third. Overall, despite having room for improvement, Welbeck's prime strength is his resolving defending skills and excellent ball retention capabilities.
