Lewis Baker

AI Scouting Report

Baker is the Championship’s premier midfield ghost, a specialized operator who exists on the periphery of a match until the moment he decides to end it. While his 37.6 passes per minute suggest a standard tempo-setter, his 0.36 goals per 90 place him in the elite top 10% of league midfielders, transforming him from a mere distributor into a genuine secondary striker threat. The counterintuitive reality of his profile lies in the aerial data; despite winning half of his duels, his bottom-tier volume of 0.45 aerials won per 90 reveals a player who carefully picks his battles rather than anchoring a physical engine room. He is a technical luxury, evidenced by his top 30% pass accuracy and creative final-third entries, yet he offers almost nothing in high-intensity defensive phases with a sub-par 1.99 pressing actions.
