Jake Cooper Scout Report

Jake Cooper, standing firm in Millwall's defensive line in the Championship, showcases intriguing contradictions in his style of play. As a centre-back, Cooper's robust aerial ability is commendable, with an impressive aerial duel success rate underpinning his importance in set-piece situations. However, while he's become a reliable defensive presence, his ball recovery and retention are surprisingly low, raising questions about his effectiveness in transitional phases. Despite being predominantly stationed in the defensive third, his capacity to create chances is remarkably high for someone in his position, suggesting a knack for timely and incisive contributions when pushing forward. However, his passing accuracy leaves room for improvement, as does his involvement in the buildup, where he sees limited touches. Alarmingly frequent fouls further highlight an aggressive edge, though it occasionally comes at the cost of discipline. This suggests a player whose physical prowess and occasional creative flair are somewhat offset by challenges in maintaining possession and discipline. In essence, Cooper exemplifies a traditional sturdy defender with a touch of unpredictability going forward.
