Playing Style Profiles

Ricardo Pereira

Pereira remains a Premier League caliber engine trapped in a Championship chassis, operating less like a traditional fullback and more like a high-intensity defensive architect. While his 1.83 successful tackles per 90 place him in the elite top 5% of the division, it is his intellectual dominance that truly separates him; he doesn't just react, he suffocates, ranking in the top 5% for pressing intensity.

Murillo

A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (5.5 clearances/90), wins the physical battle (56% duel success), uses long balls frequently (7.1/90) and active off the ball (2.5 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
