Playing Style Analysis

Target ManProlificSmall Sample

A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.7 key passes/90), a proven goalscorer (0.65 goals/90), a reliable supplier (0.22 assists/90) and top 10% scorer in the league. However, he loses possession under pressure (2.2 dispossessed/90). The three closest DNA matches to Adam Idah:

Ally Samatta(84% match) — A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.1 key passes/90).
Enes Ünal(83% match) — Ünal is the kind of striker Premier League defenders quietly dread—a physical menace in the air who backs it up with real end product. His aerial win rate sits in the top 5% of forwards in this division, and crucially, those duels are translating: 5.68 aerials won per 90 is not a volume stat, it's dominance.
Armando Broja(83% match) — A Target Man. Statistically, he stands out as strong in aerial duels (3.7 aerials won/90).
