Ghana winger Andre Ayew's statistics in Swansea City's match against Newcastle on Saturday shows how hugely influential the playmaker is for the Wales-based side.
A pass success rate of 86% in the game against Newcastle shows that the Ghanaian has been come an integral part of the English Premier League side's set-up after joining the club just last month.
His performances after two matches for the club shows that the player was a massive coup for the Swans after beating off fierce competition to sign him on a free transfer.
The attacker signed to play under manager Gary Monk on a free transfer from Marseille and his signing is thus far proving to be a massive bargain.
His performance against Newcastle paints a positive picture for the player and his club Swansea.
Below are his stats from the game against Newcastle to see just how good he was.
| Match | Goals | Total Key Passes | Ontarget Key Passes | Total Pass | Accurate Pass | Pass Success Percentage | Total Final Third Passes | Successful Final Third Passes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| André Ayew | Swansea vs Newcastle | 1 | 2 | 2 | 30 | 26 | 8 | 14 | 12 |
After an impressive debut against Chelsea in the 2-2 draw last week, in which he bagged his first goal for the club, he was again in good form this week as his side beat Newcastle 2-0 at the Liberty Stadium.
Starting with the obvious, his goal set his side on the way to a highly polished victory, but it was also his key passes that were pivotal as he had two attempted throughout the game, and got both on target.
In fact, his passing throughout the game was impressive, as he registered thirty passes throughout the game with 26 of them being accurate ones, a passing success rate of 86%.
His danger in the final third was evident as well, with him having made 14 passes in the final third across the game, 46% of his total passes, with a huge 12 of those being successful passes, a success rate of 85%.
A standout performance from Ayew again though, whose passing was a clear quality throughout. Swansea fans will certainly be hoping he can continue this form for the rest of the season.
