Impact Chaibi came off the bench for the second half of Saturday's win and hardly contributed. The attacking midfielder has surprisingly fallen out of the starting XI and seems set for a depth role. With European competition on the horizon there's a good chance Chaibi will be in line for plenty of minutes moving forward even if he doesn't start every week.

Impact Chaibi had a lion's share of the set-pieces Saturday and produced plenty of chances. None found the back of the net, but it's an encouraging role for the attacker. Frankfurt finally seem set for a consistent starting XI, and Chaibi should be a massive contributor in the starting XI. If Chaibi can stay fit he should have the volume to set new career-highs for goal contributions.

Excellent in Frankfurt Chaibi scored twice and assisted four times in 28 appearances (21 starts) in the Bundesliga.

Impact Chaibi was brought in to Frankfurt to replace the outgoing Jesper Lindstrom, and he did just that. Chaibi took on a solid starting role, and while his offensive tallies weren't incredible, he did well in a team that struggled to score. Chaibi could have some significant upside heading into 2024/25 as Frankfurt seemingly have found a cohesive offensive unit.

Assists early Chaibi assisted once to go with four shots (two on goal), eight crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 5-1 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen.

Impact Chaibi looks to be likely to face a late fitness test ahead of Saturday's contest, as he is now dealing with an illness. This could be an issue, as he has started in 18 of the 25 games he has appeared in for this campaign, with Ansgar Knauff or Niels Nkounkou being his most likely replacements if absent. However, Chaibi will look to recover by the match, hopefully earning the start if he passes his testing.

Still it's a tough match and this one-sided loss is really concerning for Frankfurt, who still have the toughest schedule remaining in the Bundesliga. Chaibi has a solid floor, but he could struggle for goal contributions in these matches.

Chaibi has cemented himself as a consistent starting option, but moving forward his future likely lies alongside Omar Marmoush in attacking midfield, not leading the line.

Then, the playmaker got involved in many other offensive actions throughout the contest from both open play and set pieces and racked up double-digit crosses for the third time over his last eight league appearances. After this performance, it will be hard envisioning Chaibi coming off the bench anytime soon.

Single shot in loss Chaibi recorded one shot (one on goal), six crosses (three accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against 1. FC Koln.

Impact Chaibi came off the bench for the second half of Saturday's loss, and took a significant role on set-pieces straight away. The midfielder is back from AFCON and has continued to earn a larger first team role throughout his first season with Frankfurt. Chaibi should be the first choice in attacking midfield moving forward in all competitions.

Impact Chaibi could be missing out on the team sheet for the first time since the club's second match of the season, having picked up an illness ahead of Sunday's contest. This could be an unfortunate loss for Frankfurt heading into a highly contentious match, as the attacker has started in nine of the club's past 10 matches. He will hope to avoid the absence, but if that is not possible, expect Jessic Ngankam or Ansgar Knauff to get the starting nod depending on the formation the team goes with.

Assists in new role Chaibi assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-1 victory versus Bayern Munich.

Impact Chaibi got the start up top as a striker during Saturday's win and did well with the new role, making the most of it and assisting once. It's unclear if this new formation will stick, though with Chaibi's good showing it's hard to see why he would be bottled up next time out. The attacking midfielder has taken some time to gel but does seem to be growing into his more attacking role in Germany.

Unfortunately for Chaibi, accuracy was an issue both games, and his two assists of the season coincidentally came from matchups in which he attempted fewer than five crosses.

First Bundesliga assist Chaibi had an assist while taking three shots (one on goal), crossing four times (two accurate) and creating three chances during Saturday's 3-1 win over Hoffenheim.

Chaibi logged 23 crosses (seven accurate) and created seven chances across his three games started from Sept. 24 to Oct. 8.

OCTOBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Chaibi made two appearances off the bench to open the season with Toulouse, logging a combined 56 minutes in which he recorded one assist, seven crosses (one accurate) and two corners. Even with the move to the Bundesliga club, the midfielder is far from a lock for the starting XI and will likely continue to feature primarily as a bench option.
