Josh Coburn Scout Report
Josh Coburn, the 21-year-old sensation at Middlesbrough, has been making ripples in the Championship as a striker this 2023-2024 season. While the Englishman doesn't have any other positions to his name, his playing style and the key metrics suggest a promising talent with some distinct strengths and shortcomings.
For a striker, Coburn impresses with high percentile scores in goal efficiency (87.3%) and progressive carrying (82.54%), demonstrating an uncanny knack for capitalizing on scoring opportunities under pressure, and a solid ability to drive the ball forward, respectively. His xA per 90, standing tall at 81.97%, offers further evidence of his strong creative output.
However, Coburn seems to grapple with reclaiming possession, with his ball recovery pegged at a low 22.22%. His goal threat percentage isn't exactly sparking either, languishing at 20.63%.
His ball retention (33.33%) and chance creation (36.51%) abilities, though not outstanding, represent potential areas of growth for this young star who seems to favour an aggressive approach on the front, rather than being involved heavily in the playmaking process.
Overall, as a young English talent playing in a competitive environment like the Championship, Josh Coburn has demonstrated considerable promise despite some room for improvement. His age combined with his strong goal efficiency could hint at a player with a bright future if supported by the right mentoring and club infrastructure.
