Jack Butland

AI Scouting Report

Butland is the former prodigy who has traded the erratic spotlight of the Premier League for a revitalized, commanding presence as the defensive bedrock of the Scottish Premiership. His data profile suggests a goalkeeper who has evolved into a proactive auxiliary playmaker; with 30.2 passes per 90 and a distinctive 5.50 passes into the final third, he is operating well above the league average for distribution range. The counterintuitive insight lies in his 3.14 press intensity actions per 90; while goalkeepers are typically passive, Butland is aggressively mobile, sweeping high to kill transitions before they materialize. However, his 63.7% pass accuracy remains a point of friction, suggesting that while he has the vision to bypass midfields, his execution can still be erratic under direct pressure.
