Is there a difference between a take-on and a dribble? Are they synonyms?
they are the same thing for opta's purposes.

I was guessing it's a dribble where you are challenged. If you dribble 10 yards and pass without meeting a defender, is that a take-on?

ETA: FBRef defines take-ons as "attempts to take on defenders while dribbling."

Dribbling into space is often called a “carry”. Yes, Keaton is good at those too.

When Big Bird is operating in traffic, his advantage is less trickiness with the ball and more size and strength - it’s hard to knock him off the ball. Less Christian Pulisic and more Yunus Musah.
 
This is incredible!
If we sing that, along with Lord of the Sharp edge, and then we add some more for other players, we might have some great new chants Music Data Company | Viberate.com
That sounds like a great idea! Maybe we can take it one step further and create an entire songbook of chants that we can use for different occasions. That way, the chants can constantly be evolving and never get old.

A lot of European teams do this and I love it.
