Playing Style Analysis

Forbs is the rare wide attacker who functions more like a shadow midfielder — threading play rather than finishing it. His 2.08 key passes per 90 and 0.32 assists per 90 both rank inside the top 20% of his league, and his 37.3 passes per 90 sits inside the top 10% — extraordinary volume for a forward, and a signal that he's the connective tissue of his team's attacking moves rather than the end product. Here's the counterintuitive part: his below-average 0.14 goals per 90 isn't a flaw in isolation — it reflects a deliberate role, not a finishing deficiency.
