Hidemasa Morita, 25 | A metronome in the number 6 role for Frontale. An average of 79 passes p90, he keeps the ball moving, mostly over short distances but also with line breaking passes too. Patroling infront of the back 4 he offers important defensive contributions too.

Ao Tanaka, 22 | A talented player attracting much interest. Usually plays as a DCM but we chose a number 8 profile to showcase his stats. His high energy means he's equally adept at getting on the ball deep as joining in higher up the pitch. Could develop into a top all-round CM.

Kaoru Mitoma, 23 | 12 goals & 9 assists this year is some great output. His underlying numbers are also fantastic. He's in the top percentile for almost every key creative metric. His direct 1v1 style is tough to stop. He'll surely make the jump to a top-end Euro league soon!

Team Focus | Kawasaki Frontale Kawasaki recently claimed their 3rd J-League title in 4 years. Averaging 539 passes p90, 16 SoT p90, scoring 82 goals and conceding just 28 - Some crazy numbers! A quick scan of their squad turns up some top talents, let's take a look.....

"Box-Throw-ins" is just one of the many customised metrics in our TransferLab V2 Data-scouting platform. Visit analyticsfc.co.uk/software for more information.

Christian Schwelger, 36 | FC Luzern Box throws p90: 2.5 Bonus stat: Long passes 5.5 p90 The truth is Schwelger is a dwindling force in the Swiss League. Gets off a few long crosses from deep. He is still getting some minutes at the age of 36, no doubt for those throws.

Marcos Rocha, 31 | Palmeiras Box throws p90: 0.8 Bonus stat: 2.7 passes into the box p90 Rocha is an experienced right-back still putting up an enormous numbers of tackles (3.7 p90) while also demonstrating impressive creative passing from his wide position.

Will Vaulks, 27 | Cardiff City Box throws p90: 5.1 Bonus stat: 7.8 long passes p90 Vaulks plays most of his minutes in a deep midfield role where he dives into tackles, takes risks spraying the ball long before arriving late into attacks.

Podium | Box Throw-ins Long throws into the box, or "Box Throw-In" rely mostly on clean technique (and a bit of oomph!). They're also fun to watch when executed well. We used TransferLab to identify the three players with the highest xG contribution from Box Throw-ins:

Nika Ninua, 21 | PAOK

Mario Vrancic, 31 | Norwich City
