Richard Scout Report
In this scout report, we delve into the world of Süper Lig's midfield maestro, Richard. The unassuming name belies sublime, game-reading ability with Ball Recovery and Interception stats that rank in the highest echelon, truly representing his impermeability in the Defensive Midfielder role for Alanyaspor. His Brazilian DNA shines brightly through his commendable Ball Retention skill and an exemplary record in winning Aerial Duels, a rarity among midfielders.
His style of play, however, is not without criticisms. Ranging from lackluster Chance Creation to limited Goal Threat, Richard's offensive prowess seems restrained, reflected considerably in his below-average Progressive Carrying and Progressive Passing. Such frailties are further mirrored in his xG and xA per 90, daringly hinting that his contribution to the attacking third is somewhat restricted.
His Pass Accuracy and Duel Win percentages are impressively high, attesting to his impeccable precision and competitiveness in the heart of Alanyaspor's midfield. Troublingly, Richard appears to have a habit for indulging in fouls and collecting yellow cards, indicating a somewhat perilous level of aggression. Nonetheless, Richard exemplifies the defining attributes of an indispensable Defensive Midfielder, acting as the linchpin between defense and attack despite some weaknesses to be ironed out in his game.
