Moses Simon Scout Report

Moses Simon, versatile 28-year-old Nigerian who currently plies his trade for Nantes in Ligue 1, has proven to be fiercely compelling in the 2023-2024 season, primarily deployed as a left winger. Predominantly, he is a powerhouse of progressive carrying, with his percentile ranking at a stunning 100%. Coupled with his impressive rate of successful dribbles clocking in at the 80th percentile, Simon's propensity for driving play forward is indisputable. His effectiveness in the creative phase of the game is underpinned by his astoundingly high percentile rankings of 88% in both chance creation and assists per 90. His successful crosses per 90 in the 74th percentile further corroborates his thriving creative abilities. Yet, the Nigerian international reveals some considerable weaknesses. His ball recovery, ball retention, and progressive passing are particularly problematic, all languishing between the 10th and 16th percentiles. This poor score indicates a lack of defensive contribution and struggle in maintaining possession, limiting his influence in the deeper phases of play. Moreover, conspicuous deficiency shows in his pass accuracy per 90 sitting in the meagre 14th percentile, implying he might often squander possession. On the goal-scoring front, Simon seems to be distinctly average, spotlighted by a goal threat and goals per 90 ranking in the 36-44% range. Monkey off his back, he has a decent xG per 90 at 54%, suggesting there might be room for improvement. His proclivity to get dispossessed, with a percentile of 84%, exacerbates his inefficient goal conversion, hinting at an over-reliance on individuality. In conclusion, while Moses has game-changing abilities in offensive third, his defensive contribution and passing accuracy need intense polishing. His respectable goal threat should be channeled into more substantial outputs to refine him into a holistic forward.
