Thin sample this season. Yaya Diémé has played 3 matches (73 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.
Signature: Only Link shows a proven, repeatable pattern this season — too little evidence yet (3 matches loaded) for a fuller signature chain.
Not a pattern: receive / move — 0× (insufficient confidence, hidden — not enough evidence yet); finish — 2× (low confidence, shown as a number only, no tactical conclusion drawn); convert — 0× (insufficient confidence, hidden — not enough evidence yet) — omitted from the signature rather than presented as one.

Team context
How much of the team runs through him, and what changes without him.
Strasbourg's output per match with Yaya Diémé (3 matches) versus without him (5 matches). Insufficient evidence — the without-sample is only 5 matches; treat every Δ below as noise until more games exist. A proper on-off model needs many more minutes.

Recruitment
Style and verdict
Style profile, closest comparables, and the summary.
Not raw event counts — football style scores: weighted models scored 0–100 against the 354 strikers in the pool (min 180 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.
Why Pressing forward 45%: a weighted blend of defensive aggression 64 (weight 45%) + transition 35 (weight 25%) + ball-winning 29 (weight 30%). The score reflects how distinctively his profile SHAPE matches this archetype vs his peers.

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: 180 cm) 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 Ligue 1, Bundesliga, La Liga, Premier League and Serie A, 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
Yaya Diémé is a pressing forward: 0 goals from 0.12 xG (-0.12 vs expected), 2 shots, 0 box entries. Under-performing his chances. [Off-ball runs, aerials and hold-up under contact need tracking/aerial data.]
Based on 3 matches (73 minutes) — an early read, treat with caution until more minutes are logged. He profiles as a pressing forward — best used in a system built around that identity.
His biggest room for growth is ball-winning — even a modest improvement there would meaningfully lift his overall pressing forward profile.
