Jevani Brown returns to Bristol Rovers after a loan spell. Here's a 🧵on why he'll quickly find another loan. An obvious starting point: there aren’t many players available at the League Two level (especially at this time of year) who can do this...

Jevani (the focus player of this visualisation🟢) stands out amongst players with over 500 minutes as someone who impacts teams ability to build attacks. He has especially great pressure metrics and an improving number regains when adjusted for possession volume (PAdj)
