Ryan Christie Scout Report

Ryan Christie, playing defensive midfielder for AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League, shows a multifaceted skill set. This seasoned Scottish player, with some matches under his belt, impressively excels in recovering the ball, given his position on the pitch. This tendency complements his ability to create chances for his teammates and to propel plays forwards - both with his running and passing. However, there's room for improvement when we observe his one on one defending and penalty area defending where he ranks slightly lower. This weakness in his game is also reflected in his overall duel win percentage, especially in aerial duels. Two areas of focus to enhance his defensive ability. Furthermore, one of Christie's glaring weaknesses is his ball retention where he tends to lose control, despite his notably higher percentile for being dispossessed, indicating better ball retention. This might be due to his below-average pass accuracy, which could limit his effectiveness in possession plays. While his direct threat to the goal is moderate, both in terms of goal threat and efficiency, he manages to chip in regularly with assists, showing his value as a playmaker in addition to his defensive duties. In summary, Christie is a tenacious ball recoverer and proficient playmaker, although he will need to work on his ball retention and defensive skills to become a more well-rounded midfielder.
