Koji Miyoshi, Birmingham City's right winger, thrives in the Championship with some striking strengths and notable weaknesses. Aged 27, the Japanese international is a potent goal threat, ranking in the upper echelon of his cohort at 77.92%. His consistent displays in chance creation at 57.14% and ball recoveries at 68.83% underscore his ability to not only start but also sustain attacks, which is backed up by his strong xG and xA per 90 metrics (71.43% and 70.13% respectively). In addition, Miyoshi excels at progressive passing, standing in the top decile at 90.9%, coupled with high assist stats per 90 at 87.01%, demonstrating his paramount vision and playmaking skills.
However, his performance isn't without drawbacks. Despite his contribution in front of the goal, Miyoshi manages a worring goal efficiency of just 25.97%. Also noteworthy is his progressive carrying standing at a lowly 27.27%, pointing to a potential struggle in driving play forward. And with successful dribbles per 90 at a mere 23.38%, it hints at a potential flaw in his one-on-one duels. Couple this with slightly subpar ball retention, serviceable pass accuracy per 90, and being dispossessed statistics, Miyoshi must enhance his ball skills to reach his full potential. Still, with his threat in front of the goal and top-tier playmaking ability, Miyoshi remains a name to watch in the Championship.
