Jota Silva Scout Report

Jota Silva, at 25, embodies a tantalising blend of flair and unpredictability on the pitch for Nottingham Forest. As a right winger, Silva’s style of play is characterised by an impressive knack for creating opportunities, evident in his remarkable percentile ranking in chance creation and expected assists. This ability to carve openings is a cornerstone in his game, making him a valuable asset in the attacking third despite limited possession. However, Silva's player stats reveal significant room for improvement in ball retention and pass accuracy, suggesting a frequent squander of possession that could hinder his impact. Although his goal threat remains limited — with goal efficiency and xG percentiles lagging — his shot-taking frequency indicates a willingness to try his luck when given half a chance. Silva thrives when direct, preferring to keep defenders on their toes with his probing runs rather than orchestrating from deeper positions. Elevating his technical consistency could see him rise as a more complete forward, but, for now, expect unpredictability when Silva’s on the ball, often yielding spectacular or frustrating outcomes.
