In which formation did the new players (rookies and neo-pros) weigh the most in performance during the Ligue 1 Uber Eats season?
Only one player discovering a new team in 2022/23 has played the entire 38 days of Ligue 1 Uber Eats: Montassar Talbi (3420 minutes). The Tunisian defender, recruited last summer by the Merlus, illustrates the importance that the new players had for the Breton club, 10th in the Ligue 1 Uber Eats ranking. In fact, rookies and beginners – i.e. players who were not part of the team in 21/22 – accumulated 48% of playing time at FC Lorient, ie the 5th highest total in the elite.
Among the teams having bet more on continuity and granted the least playing time to rookies and 1st professional contracts are Strasbourg (14%), AS Monaco (18%), AC Ajaccio (25%), PSG (26%) and Toulouse FC (29%).
Top 5 teams in % of new players playing time this season:
1. Angers SCO, 56%
2. AJ Auxerre, 54%
3. Olympique de Marseille, 52%
4. Clermont Foot, 51%
5. FC Lorient, 48%
If in Angers the new players accumulated the longest playing time (20,973 minutes), in Strasbourg they were however limited to 5110 minutes, the lowest total of the season in the elite.
Regarding the number of tenures granted to newcomers, five teams reached 200 over the 38 days of 22/23: namely Angers (236 tenures), Auxerre (228), OM (215), Clermont (214) and Montpellier (200).
At OM, outstanding recruits
The attacking contribution of new players in 2022/23 consecrates Marseille recruits who have scored 41 goals! By also delivering 19 assists in Ligue 1 Uber Eats: 2nd best total behind Montpellier HSC
With 19 goalscorers different, the 2nd highest total since 1947/48 (ASM, 20 in 15/16), OM have seen 11 “new” players find their way to the net this season: Sanchez Tavares (6), Mbemba (5), Veretout (4), Suarez (3), Vitinha, Clauss, Gigot (2), Ounahi, Kaboré and Malinovskyi (1).
An efficiency record over the season, even ahead of OL and their “General” Lacazette who scored 27 goals, the best among rookies 22/23, allowing Les Gones to share 2nd place in the standings with RC Lens, OGC Nice and Stade Rennais (33 goals). Stade de Reims (28) with Balogun and Toulouse FC from Dallinga (27) come just behind.
Lacazette, top scorer for rookies
As for the players, while the centrals Talbi (FCL, 3420 min) and Theate (SRFC, 3129 min) have the longest playing times among the new outfield players, many forwards recruited have performed well offensively. Starting with the ghost Alexandre Lacazette at OL, but not only.
Ranking of scorers among 2022/23 rookies:
1. Lacazette (OL), 27 buts
2. Balogun (SdR) and Openda (RCL), 21 buts
4. Gouiri (SRFC), 15 goals
5. Sanchez (OM, 14 goals
6. Laborde (OGCN), 13 goals
