Overview

The player

Who he is and how he compares with his peers.

Thin sample this season. Lorenzo Bernasconi has played 6 matches (359 min) so far, so sections that need a bigger sample to say anything reliable are not shown here — they are missing on purpose, not broken. See all seasons combined →
01

What Patterns Define Him?

His repeatable signature. A step only appears if its reliability score (sample size × match coverage) reaches at least Medium confidence — pattern mining, not anecdotes.

Where is he influential — vs where is he merely present?

Red fill = raw touch territory. Gold rings = zones where his influence (xT added, progression, line-breaks, key passes) outweighs how often he's actually there — one combined map instead of two separate maps to compare by eye. Red with no ring: present but not dangerous. A ring on faint red: rare touches, outsized impact.

Pass range = his fewest and most passes in any single match this season (13 at the low end, 43 at the high) — a measure of match-to-match involvement, not pass distance. Dribble range works the same way, for dribbles/carries per match.

How dangerous are his carries?

Real ball-carries

31 tracked carries (7.8/90, 7 progressive, 285m total) — the ball moving with his touches, a different signal from dribbles below (beating an opponent 1v1). this counts every touch-carry, not just his dribble attempts below — a fuller picture of how much of his ball-carrying is control-and-move rather than beating a man.

How does he build & move the ball?

How he moves the ball — his 4 busiest progression routes, not where every pass starts and ends separately. Arrow width = how often, colour = xT gained, dashed = switch of play. The full breakdown is in the lane matrix below.

own goal left, attacking →

Rows normalised: each row sums to 100% of that lane's completed passes. Grey number = passes from that lane.

Primary route: the left wing in the middle third → the left wing in the final third — 4 progressive passes (24% of his progression) at 0.085 xT each. He keeps it in the same lane.

His progression is inward: 35% of progressive passes move the ball toward the middle versus 0% going wider — he cuts in rather than holding width.

Only 3% of his passes switch play, so his threat is same-side — contain the flank he occupies and the route closes.

Quality behind the volume: 5 line-breaking passes and 17 final-third entries, 2.8 total xT added.

Origin and destination are measured on the same event row — no receiver inference. Receiver identity is not recoverable from this data source.

Where does he become vulnerable?

31 possessions lost. Directness has a cost — the question is where. Attacking-third losses are cheap; deep ones are dangerous.

Tactical patterns — how his football actually looks

Three clustered sequence diagrams from his own event data — his three busiest routes: the way he progresses, the pattern behind his chances, and where a turnover turns dangerous.

own goal left, attacking →
How does he progress the ball forward?
His most common route for progressing play: he plays straight through the left wing, advancing it forward in the middle third — 2 passes worth 0.46 xT.
Where do his chances come from?
Of 3 key passes, his busiest route is a delivery where he plays straight through the left wing in the middle third — 1 times. The receiver isn't identifiable in this data, only where the pass started and ended.
Where does he lose the ball most?
This is a RATE, not a raw count — the share of his touches in each zone that end in a turnover, so a zone he simply plays in more often doesn't automatically look riskier. His weakest zone is the left half-space in the final third: 36% of his 11 touches there are lost (4 times).

04

Does he carry inside or outside — his ball-carries across the pitch

Four arrows, one per movement class of his ball-carries: outside→inside (cutting in with the ball), inside→outside (carrying wide), outside→outside (down the touchline) and inside→inside (through the middle). Each count is measured from the carry's real start and end coordinates.

own goal left, attacking →
Across 31 ball-carries, his dominant tendency is that he drives along the touchline (58%). He carries from outside into the middle 1 times and out toward the touchline 2 — a width-holder who drives down the line.
09

What happens right after he carries the ball

Every carry's end point matched against his own very next pass or shot in the same match, when one starts almost exactly there — the direct continuation of that touch, not a separate stat. “No clean link” means no pass or shot of his own started close enough to count (often the carry ended in a tackle or a loss); it isn't a claim about exactly what happened, only that nothing traceable followed.

Shot

Progressive / key pass
2 · 6%

No clean link

Of 31 carries, 0% flow straight into a shot of his own, 6% into a key or progressive pass — a genuine end product to the carry, not just ball retention. 10% have no clean link to a next touch of his own close to where the carry ended.

Against Different Pressing Intensities

Playing-Style Profile

Not raw event counts — football style scores: weighted models scored 0–100 against the 383 central mids in the pool (min 450 min). This is what separates players who post similar numbers but play differently. Proxy dimensions are inferred from on-ball data; true off-ball running / under-pressure context is not measured.

Similar Players — in style space

Closest comparables measured on the style scores above, within the same position family — so it separates how players are alike, not just how much they touch the ball. Each line explains the shared strength and the divergent mechanism. A light physical-profile term (height / weight; this player: 190 cm / 72 kg) is included at a quarter of one style axis's weight — enough to break ties between stylistic twins, not to override style. Scope: pooled across the Serie A, Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligue 1 and Premier League, percentiled within each player's own league before comparing — a match from another league is marked with its league name.

Style, not quality: a high match here means two players tend to produce the ball in similar ways — it is not a ranking, a scouting recommendation, or a claim that they are equally good.

Summary

Lorenzo Bernasconi is an advanced playmaker (8): 3.3 progressive passes, 0.75 key passes /90, 3 box entries, 0 goals from 0.03 xG. A box-to-box contributor across every phase.

Based on 6 matches (359 minutes) — an early read, treat with caution until more minutes are logged. He profiles as an advanced playmaker (8) — best used in a system built around that identity. His biggest room for growth is box threat — even a modest improvement there would meaningfully lift his overall advanced playmaker (8) profile.
