Strengths

Dribbling and pace are Carrasco’s main assets and the player is very skillful at taking on his opponents (1.97 per-game) and sprinting forward with the ball to gain extra space. In addition to dribbling, he is very good at finishing attacking moves as he tends to position himself in all the right places.

He creates around one chance per-game and makes 0.83 key passes, keeping his passing success rate around 83% per-game.

When a player is technical gifted like Carrasco and has the ability to cut defencese open with his runs, the ability to use both feet is a massive bonus. He is equally good when shooting with his left or right boot and it doesn’t really matter how he positions himself before taking a shot.

His defensive contribution is also significant, and with the style of Diego Simeone, the player has learned the importance of withdrawing and tracking his player.
