DAICHI KAMADA| AN INSIGHT NEW SIGNING CRISTAL PALACE

🟢 Michael Olise departs for Bayern and Crystal Palace have got a ready-made replacement in Daichi Kamada.

🧵BACKGROUND🧵 Kamada signed for Lazio for the 23/24 following an excellent spell at Eintracht Frankfurt.

He struggled to make the same mark returning onto 4 goal involvements in 29 partidos.

The season prior Kamada had returned 22 goal involvements for Frankfurt in all comps. 🧵FYI🧵 Se his (2022/23 data) from Frankfurt rather than use his Lazio data as I think it’s a truer reflection of his qualities.

He was also managed by Oliver Glasner during this period. 🧵STRENGTHS🧵

Kamada performed exceptionally well for Frankfurt and showed his qualities as a dual goalscoring and creative threat. Ranking in the (93%) for goals scored and (87%) for assists made.

Showing that he offers multiple outlets to points for FPL managers.

🧵WAS A FLUKE?🧵

The short answer is No. Kamada ranked in the (98%) for expected goals and the (73%) for expected assists showing that Kamada ranked significantly better than other midfielders in the Bundesliga in these categories.

🧵BALL PROGRESSION🧵

Kamada is an excellent asset when it comes to progressing play. He excels in carrying the ball (77%) , progressing play through passing (92%) and making himself an outlet for passing (77%).

He is an excellent outlet for advancing play for his club. 🧵PASSING🧵

Kamada is more reliable in possession (68%) for pass completion - than most midfielders while being more progressive than average (92%) and producing more assists than average (87%).This shows that Kamada knows when to play it safe and when to take risks.

🧵UNIQUE PARTS OF HIS GAME🧵

Kamada likes to switch play often (90%) suggests he has an expansive passing range - while he has also been responsible for corner kicks (82%) and likes to cross the ball (73%). Again displaying multiple avenues for points for FPL managers. furthermore to back this up - Kamada is in the (84%) for shot-creating actions and this goes even further when he looked at actions resulting in goals with Kamada being in the (97%) for this.He is very dangerous and makes things happen when on the ball.

🧵CONCLUSION🧵

I really do like this signing. Kamada is playing under the manager that captured his best form and I think he can recapture that at Crystal Palace.
