Playing Style Analysis

A Complete Forward. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.5 key passes/90), a constant goal threat (2.6 shots/90), a regular goalscorer (0.34 goals/90) and a prolific assist provider (0.42 assists/90). The three most similar players to Ben Bobzien by playing style are:

• Martijn Kaars(85% match) — A Complete Forward. Statistically, he stands out as a regular goalscorer (0.27 goals/90).
• Samuel Essende(85% match) — Essende is the Bundesliga’s most industrious physical anomaly, a Tier C striker who operates with the progressive vision of a deep-lying playmaker and the shot volume of a Golden Boot contender. Averaging 3.81 shots per 90, he sits in the league’s elite top 10%, yet his true value lies in his startling ability to move the needle from deep; his 2.69 passes into the final third place him in the top decile of all forwards. The counterintuitive insight here is that despite his 3.12 aerial wins per 90—a top 30% figure—he is less a traditional target man and more a high-value ball-winner, ranking in the top 20% for tackles won.
• Ismaël Gharbi(84% match) — A Inside Forward. Statistically, he stands out as an elite creator (1.6 key passes/90), a regular goalscorer (0.34 goals/90), a prolific assist provider (0.25 assists/90), creates high-quality scoring opportunities (0.76 big chances/90) and draws fouls effectively (2.8/90). However, he loses possession under pressure (1.9 dispossessed/90).
