One of the best attacking midfielders in the Championship this season (unsurprisingly).

Emi Buendia. No one took a chance on him. A decision many may regret.

Here's a comparison of Buendia 20/21 vs 18/19. All p90 stats and all in Championship.

So far this season Emi is shooting more, getting into the box more & getting into much better scoring areas. Direct creativity is same as last time with a little more ball carrying

Not fully there yet on the defensive work fouling more than he's winning it but uncanny similar passing performance yet adding ability to get on the end of moves and take shots from good areas. That's one aspect Farke highlighted last season Emi needs to work at. He clearly has.
