Based on this. He averages less than half a completed dribble per game. And is highly dispossessed. His attributes appear to be hold. I'm a bit concerned. But I've seen some of his CL clips which were definitely encouraging. He's another huge gamble but let's hope there's been adequate assessment of the risk.

You’re misreading the chart mate. Dispossessed is very low. The chart is organised so that the nearer to the edge, the more positive the value.

So attributes are:

Decent expected goals
Involved in moves which lead to goals
Hard to dispossess
Lots of touches inside the box

But the gamble is that he’s doing this in an average league.

If Everton buy one more striker, there will be no gamble.

Doesn't make sense that mate. How can you regularly dispossess somebody who only attempts dribbles infrequently?. Unless you mean his control or passing is poor and he loses possession that way. In which case, why are we buying him?

He has a low dribbling rating. And a high ratio of times he's dispossessed. So on the few occasions he does try to dribble he most often loses it anyway. Basically it's not a strength of his game. Some argue he is strong in this area but I'm always of a belief that the numbers don't lie over 90 odd games.
