Robin Koch Scout Report
Robin Koch, the 27-year-old center-back from Eintracht Frankfurt, is displaying a solid season in the Bundesliga, particularly standing out as a notable goal threat compared to other defenders, placed in the 93rd percentile. Koch's defensive capabilities are bolstered by his adept ability to recover the ball, attested by his rankings sitting comfortably in the 66th percentile.
In terms of style of play, Koch, who also performs as a central midfielder, excels in progressive carrying, placing in the 67th percentile, indicating his propensity to shift the game forwards. While his recovery and progressive carrying abilities make him reliable, Koch has curious weakness in ball retention and progressive passing, hovering around the 35th percentile, hinting at a cautionary note on his possession game.
His aerial duels win rate and overall duel win rate both rest in the impressive 72.6 percentile range, showing his skill and dominance in one-on-one situations. Moreover, the stats illuminate Koch's activity and possession areas, revealing a balanced predisposition to both midfield and defensive thirds, suggesting a well-rounded player handy in both defensive maneuvers as well as mid-field distribution.
However, he needs to work on reducing the number of times he commits fouls, lying in a worrying 17th percentile. Koch's tendency to pick up yellow cards also seems to be a concern in his otherwise commendable scout report, sitting at a high 76th percentile.
Despite some weaknesses needing attention, Robin Koch's player stats offer a well-balanced game and a significant goal threat from the center-back position that is not easy to find. His capacity to recover the ball, coupled with his progressive carrying ability, makes him a player of note in any matchday lineup.
