The verdict
Both are scored as wingers, against the same field of 69 and on the same criteria. Lamine Yamal comes out ahead by a clear margin: 2nd against 14th, which is top 3% against top 21%.
What the role score is measuring
The winger score weighs rating, goals/90, assists/90, dribbles/90 and season totals. Those are the things the position is actually asked for, which is the point of scoring by role at all — a ranking that rewards a centre-back for goals tells you about his set-piece luck, not his defending.
Where Lamine Yamal is ahead
Lamine Yamal leads on goals / 90 (0.63 to 0.28), assists / 90 (0.44 to 0.20), key passes / 90 (2.86 to 2.55), and on one other shared measure.
What this cannot settle
- The role score is a rank within one season and one set of criteria. Change the weights, the minutes floor or the league filter and the order can move, which is why the numbers behind it are printed above rather than summarised away.
- Penalties are not separated from open play here, so a forward on regular spot-kicks carries an advantage this page does not strip out.
- Minutes are not equal. A player with a deeper sample has had more chances to regress toward his real level, and a shorter one can still be riding a hot month.
