Manuel Locatelli
A possession-dominant defensive midfielder in Serie A whose standout quality is ball retention — possessionControl sub-score of 89.81 is elite for the role and sits far above every other dimension. At a Tactico Score of 76.77, he sits in the "above average" band, meaningfully better than a typical starter but without the attacking or defensive sub-scores to push into elite territory. Across 34 matches and 2,826 minutes, his profile is defined by consistency rather than peak output.
The 76.77 Tactico Score is anchored almost entirely by the possessionControl sub-score of 89.81, which compensates for below-baseline readings across finishing (25.53), creation (36.65), progression (30.15), and physicalDuel (44.35). Without that possession dominance, the overall score would sit considerably lower.
