Christian Fassnacht Scout Report

Christian Fassnacht, a versatile player contributing to Norwich City primarily as a right winger but also performing as a midfielder, has an exceptional ability to pose a goal threat - landing in the top 7% of players in the Championship league. This aligns strongly with his impressive xG per 90 where he finds himself in the top 16% of peers, underlining his consistent threat on target. At the same time, Fassnacht proves to be highly adept in ball recovery, standing in the top 16% of players, highlighting his defensive prowess. However, despite these strengths, Fassnacht exhibits visible weaknesses in a few critical areas most notably, progressive carrying and chance creation where he lies in the lowest 4%, suggesting a lack of incisive forward movement with the ball and vision to create scoring opportunities. His low dispossession stats might be comforting, but it could be a reflection of his low risk-taking propensity, adversely impacting the aggressive forward play expected of a winger. Also concerning is his slightly below-average pass accuracy and his sub-par successful dribbles metrics. At 30, Fassnacht draws near the twilight of his career. Despite this, his contributions to defensive duties and an exceptional goal threat make him a valuable asset. However, improving the creation and dribbling aspects of his game should be his focus if he wants peace of mind on his right-wing role. Overall, a mixed bag for the Swiss man, but certainly not without its high points.
