Touches In the Box

Depay

A key issue for Chelsea under Tuchel is the lack of threat inside the penalty area so it stands to reason that, if a forward is more likely to take touches in the box, he will provide more problems to an opponent.

On this metric, Depay comes out on top, averaging 7.57 touches per 90 in La Liga last campaign, compared to Aubameyang’s 5.25.
