Playing Style Analysis

Box-to-Box

A Box-to-Box. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.2 key passes/90), heavily involved in play (60 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.5 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions. The three most similar players to Jack Taylor by playing style are:

  • Flavien Tait(83% match)Tait occupies a curious middle ground in the Super Lig—a midfielder who moves the ball frequently and finds pockets intelligently, yet rarely threatens the game's deeper architecture. His 1.49 key passes per 90 sits above the league average, and his pass volume of 41.1 per 90 suggests a player who wants the ball and keeps things ticking. The counterintuitive read here is that his above-average duel win rate of 49.7% masks how little he actually engages defensively—his press intensity sits in the bottom 10% of the league, meaning those duels are largely forced upon him rather than sought.
  • Kenneth Taylor(83% match)A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, an elite creator (1.7 key passes/90), a prolific assist provider (0.28 assists/90), meticulous in distribution (86% pass accuracy), heavily involved in play (56 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.1 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
  • Morgan Gibbs-White(82% match)A Creator. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.4 key passes/90), a proven goalscorer (0.40 goals/90) and heavily involved in play (50 touches/90).
