Sunderland

Outside the top flight: 2021-22 (tier 3), 2022-23, 2023-24 (tier 2), 2024-25 (tier 2). Those seasons draw no line.

The top 7 by goals plus assists. A per-90 rate needs 221+ minutes this season — 35% of the most-played player in the league, a bar that rises as the season runs — so a cameo cannot own the chart; anyone below it appears in Totals and in the table but not in the per-90 view. Hover over or tap a name for the player's goals-plus-assists-per-90 trend against the full 2025-26 season (a trend needs 450+ minutes last season and 90+ this season).

Brobbey leads Sunderland with 3 goals and assists (3 goals); E.Le Fée next with 2 goals and assists (1 goal, 1 assist). Against last season's goals-and-assists-per-90 pace, Isidor has risen most (+0.31); Mukiele has fallen most (-0.26). 12 of 25 players with minutes have enough for a trend (450+ minutes in 2025-26, 90+ in 2026-27).

The composite is, for defenders, clearances + blocks + interceptions + tackles; for midfielders and forwards, the same plus ball recoveries. Players with 90+ minutes this season, with the year-over-year trend against 2025-26. Tackles, recoveries and clearances-blocks-interceptions (CBI) are this-season counts only — the API's past-season totals carry just the composite, so those three columns have no trend.

Mukiele leads Sunderland in defensive contribution per 90 (12.17, from 540 minutes); Xhaka next (10.29). Against 2025-26, Mukiele has risen most (+3.34 per 90); Danso has fallen most (-5.39).

Minutes per club match = a player's minutes ÷ the club's matches played, so a starter reads near 90 and a substitute reads his true share. 2026-27: 7 matches so far; a player's minutes are his own season total, whichever club he played them for. 2025-26: minutes over 38 matches for any Premier League club — the 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; every player with either is charted.

Roefs is on the pitch most for Sunderland: 90.0 minutes per club match (630 minutes in 7 matches); level with him: Xhaka (90.0); E.Le Fée next (86.9). Against 2025-26, Reinildo has gained most (+22.9 minutes per match); Hume has lost most (-24.7).

▬ (level) means a trend within ±0.05 per 90, or ±2 minutes per match — a player who was on the pitch for every minute of both seasons reads ▬ 0.0. — means no trend is available.

Key passes per 90 minutes, for players with 90+ minutes this season, with the year-over-year trend against 2025-26. Assists tell you who got the final touch; key passes tell you who kept creating whether or not anyone finished. The England site has no equivalent section: its data source does not publish key passes.

Shots and shots on target per 90 minutes, for players with 90+ minutes this season. The table adds the accuracy — the share of a player's shots that were on target — which is a rate, so it needs volume before it means anything. The England site has no equivalent section: its data source publishes expected goals instead of shot counts.
