Playing Style Analysis

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. The three most similar players to Kenneth Taylor by playing style are:

• Weston McKennie(83% match) — McKennie is the American who made Serie A believers out of skeptics—a box-to-box engine who wins aerial duels at a rate that puts him in the top 10% of Italian midfielders, a remarkable feat for someone operating in one of Europe's most physically demanding leagues. His 1.44 key passes per 90 and consistent presence in the final third suggest a midfielder who genuinely influences the game's decisive moments, not just its connective tissue. The counterintuitive truth, though, is that his passing accuracy sits at dead average—which for a player asked to carry and progress the ball in tight spaces, is a quiet limitation that compounds under pressure.
• Amir Richardson(83% match) — A Box-to-Box. Statistically, he stands out as an aggressive ball-winner (2.5 tackles/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy), heavily involved in play (69 touches/90), active off the ball (2.1 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 10% tackler in the league. However, he prone to committing fouls (2.7/90).
• Peer Koopmeiners(84% match) — A Ball-Winner. Statistically, he stands out as a capable chance creator (1.0 key passes/90), an aggressive ball-winner (3.3 tackles/90), wins the ball cleanly (2.0 successful tackles/90), heavily involved in play (61 touches/90), active off the ball (2.6 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions and top 10% tackler in the league.
