Overview
- Joao Pedro says his upturn stems from Liam Rosenior’s one-to-one coaching and clear guidance on how to improve.
- Sky Sports’ analysis indicates he now roams with greater freedom yet occupies the penalty area more than under Enzo Maresca, who often used him as a No. 10.
- Since January he has delivered 11 goals and five assists, lifting his season total to 18 with a reported 24.6% shot-conversion rate that tops Erling Haaland and trails only Harry Kane.
- Recent highlights include a Premier League hat-trick at Aston Villa and an extra-time goal in Chelsea’s FA Cup win at Wrexham.
- Liam Rosenior has publicly grouped him with elite strikers, insisting he is “in that category now” and that he would not swap him for anyone at present.
