2) Neves creates more chances
While the key pass metric doesn’t tell you everything about a player’s creativity, it does give you an insight into who is more likely to create shooting opportunities in the final third of the pitch.
Neves had 32 key passes in the Premier League last campaign, compared to Xhaka’s 18. The Wolves midfielder, however, made 65 fewer passes in the final third, meaning he is more of a threat when given the chance to pick out a ball in dangerous areas.
