The Chadli vs Lamela shot time tells a story
The penultimate in the Shot Time Series, that has been very revealing thus far of the Rose Davies battle and damning of Mousa Dembélé.
Tonight I move on to the attacking three behind the striker in Mauricio Pochettino's 4-2-3-1 system.
The six players in the section ate Andros Townsend, Érik Lamela, Aaron Lennon, Christian Eriksen and Nacer Chadli. In which order would you put them, who takes the least amount of playing minutes to take a shot?
If you don't shoot you can't score, pretty obvious, the Mousa Dembélé shooting time statistic showed why he doesn't score more.
The time is arrived at by taking the total amount of time on the pitch in the Premier League over the season and dividing that by the number of shots a player takes, thus giving us a time it takes him to have a shot. The lower the figure the more shots a player gets in, the higher the less.
Attacking Midfield
Player - Mins Per Shot
Christian Eriksen 32.29
Nacer Chadli 44.65
Andros Townsend 47.19
Érik Lamela 60.53
Aaron Lennon 152.57
Eriksen, Chadli and Townsend are all similar times, two were in double figures, one scored from a miss-placed cross. Even the England commentators are cottoning on to his cut inside and shoot game, saying he has to be careful he doesn't become a one trick pony and therefore easy to defend against. Spurs fans will tell you it's a bit late for that.
The Chadli and Lamela shooting time should be about the same but it isn't, Chadli took 16 more shots in just 114 minutes more playing time. Our Argentinian has to up that statistic and give himself the chance to score more goals, Lennon, Townsend and Chadli are all more accurate when they do shoot.
