About these numbers

Where the numbers come from. Every figure on this page is read from the official Fantasy Premier League API; a blank reads "—". Per-90 rates are the total × 90 ÷ minutes. "Points" are FPL fantasy points, the game's own scoring. xG, xA and xGC are the expected goals, assists and goals conceded the FPL API publishes.

Past seasons are the totals the FPL API records for him league-wide, and a season spent outside the league leaves a gap rather than a bridged line. The club column does not come from the API, which does not record it: it is read off his Wikipedia career table, and is blank where Wikipedia has no entry for that season. Expected goals and assists begin in 2022-23, and ball-winning actions in 2024-25; before those the API published none, so the seasons are blank rather than zero. A per-90 rate needs 90 minutes behind it, so a shorter season shows no rate at all. Minutes per club match is minutes over 38 for a past season.

Playing time = minutes ÷ the club's matches played, so a starter reads near 90 and a substitute reads his true share. 2026-27: 7 club matches so far. 2025-26: minutes over 38 matches for any Premier League club — the FPL API does not attribute a past season to a club, so a player who moved is measured at his previous club. The trend needs 450+ minutes last season and 90+ this season.

Defensive contribution is the Fantasy Premier League's composite of ball-winning actions: for defenders, clearances + blocks + interceptions + tackles; for midfielders and forwards, the same plus ball recoveries. Tackles, recoveries and clearances-blocks-interceptions are this-season counts only: the API's past-season totals carry just the composite, so no trend is available for those three.

Trend = this season's rate minus last season's (2026-27: 580 min; 2025-26: 1404 min).
