North Shore United’s offense has been on a tear so far this minor league season. Miko Rashford II is leading the league with eight goals. George Shaheen leads the league with six assists and teammate Santos Neymarinho is just behind with five. The team has put incredible pressure on opponents by finding opportunities to put shots on goal. Rashford’s 38 leads the league, and Shaheen is second with 25.
Advanced metrics show not just the totals that members of the club are tallying, but get at the strength in the way North Shore’s players are scoring.
For example, North Shore has the top three players, and four of the top seven, when it comes to expected number of goals from made shots based on the strength of chances.
1. Mikko Rashford II – 6.06 (North Shore)
2. Zizou Lopta – 3.57 (North Shore)
3. George Shaheen – 3.45 (North Shore)
4. Jordan Bamford – 3.17 (Seoul)
5. Apollo Zervas – 2.84 (Seoul)
6. Sterling Scott – 2.65 (Athenai)
7. Santos Neymarinho – 2.61 (North Shore)
Most of the damage the team has done has been within the flow of the game, not on corners or free kick set pieces. North Shore currently owns all three of the top tallies for open play key passes – passes made to a teammate that results in an attempted shot on goal based only on open plays.
1. George Shaheen – 25 (North Shore)
2. Ziou Lopta – 15 (North Shore)
T3. Squidward Tortellini – 14 (Kaapstad)
T3. Santos Neymarinho – 14 (North Shore)
T3. Rodiano Santori – 14 (Inter London)
T3. Hanibal Armaros – 14 (North Shore)
George Shaheen leads the minors with 10 successful open play crosses while Santos Neymarinho is third with seven. Orlando Mastache Maldonado leads the league in progressive passes with 42, while Viktoria Snooks is third with 38.
By all metrics, North Shore's offense has been insanely effective so far.
