Idrissa Gana Gueye Scout Report
Idrissa Gana Gueye is a central midfielder who also plays as a defensive midfielder for Everton in the Premier League. Now at 33, with an impressive ball recovery rate, Gueye has proven himself to be an invaluable asset when it comes to regaining possession, demonstrating his prowess in one vs one defending and penalty area defending. His ability to win aerial duels underlines his defensive strengths further, making him a solid defensive bulwark in the midfield.
His remarkable goal efficiency reveals his knack for capitalizing on scoring opportunities despite being less involved in chance creation and goal threat. While his ball retention is satisfactory, there is room for improvement in his pass accuracy, evident in his mid-ranged percentile scores for progressive passing and carrying.
Possessing a lesser degree of touches suggests a more substantial emphasis on defensive duties as well as a less dominant role in attack initiation or possession-driven play. His lower assist and expected assist (xA) indicates a more selective approach to final-third distribution, in-line with a player more focused on defence than attack.
In conclusion, Gueye's performances hint at an influential midfield enforcer who specializes in breaking up play and converting goal chances efficiently when they present themselves. His qualities can be better utilized by prioritizing him in a more defensive role and allowing other members of the team to shoulder more creation and progressive carrying responsibilities.
