J. Doig

Doig's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, J. Doig was used in rotation for Sassuolo in the Serie A: 5 appearances and 411 minutes, averaging 82 minutes per outing. The number that flatters him most is match rating — 650th of 905 defenders and inside the top 72%.

Per 90 minutes that is 1.5 tackles per 90, 1.3 interceptions per 90 and 46% of his duels won — the rate profile behind Doig's totals. The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against defenders, Doig sits in the top 18% for chance creation but only the top 76% for goalscoring.

Set against Doig's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he is playing far less than he once did — 517 minutes against 3255 at his peak. Our records cover 4 seasons of Doig's career, 2022/23 to 2026/27, across 2 clubs — Sassuolo, Hellas Verona. In that time he has played 120 matches across 2 competitions, 7,518 minutes in all.

By average match rating this is the strongest season we hold for him, 6.91. Treat these rates carefully. At 411 minutes — roughly 5 full matches — Doig is 489 short of our 900-minute qualifying floor, so he does not appear on the ranking boards: on a sample this size two good afternoons move a per-90 number further than a month of steady form.

How these scores are built, and the minutes and rating floors a player must clear to appear on our boards, are set out in our methodology.
