Marvin Friedrich Scout Report

Marvin Friedrich, commanding the backline for Borussia Mönchengladbach, epitomises a modern centre-back with a unique blend of strengths and development areas. His style of play is particularly noted for his adeptness at carrying the ball forward, ranking in the top percentile for progressive carrying – a testament to his ability to transition defence into attack seamlessly. While his ball retention and chance creation indicate a player who's comfortable and creative in possession, his passing could use refinement, with accuracy and progressive passing trailing behind his other capabilities. Friedrich's aerial strength is formidable, consistently winning aerial duels and establishing dominance in the air. Defensively, however, Friedrich's low interception rate suggests positional awareness might need sharpening to better anticipate opposition moves. His surprisingly low tendency to commit fouls and draw yellow cards underlines a disciplined approach, although his lower ball recovery stats raise questions about his effectiveness in regaining possession for his team. Playing primarily in the defensive third, he’s a reassuring presence at the back, which doesn't quite extend into the attacking levers – with minimal involvement in the attacking third. In this season's scout report, Friedrich emerges as a solid defender with room for improvement in distribution and defensive anticipation to elevate his overall impact.
