Those are volume totals, rather than success rates or anything like that.

'Progressive Passes Received' refers to how often they receive forward passes from others - Wharton is typically the one making these passes, so rarely the receiver - he only receives, on average, 0.75 forwarded passes from teammates per 90 minutes.

Hope that makes sense!

Thanks for clarification. So the data does not show success rate of attempted forward passes just the number. The overall % completed is pretty much a meaningless stat as many, especially for defenders and DM's are short or to players in acres of space. TBH, I'd be attempted to say the eye test is better for someone like Kamada. Just because you can measure something does not make it meaningful. But itis clear from the debate that different players have different eyes

Correct, but combined with the pass completion %, you get a clear feel for how often and how successfully a player is progressing the ball; Wharton makes nearly twice as many forward passes as Hughes, without any drop off in his overall pass completion %, so you can conclude that Wharton is a much better at progressing the ball forward, which I'm sure we'd all agree with.

Most stats are meaningless in isolation, but I haven't provided any in isolation for that reason.

It's definitely meaningful that across a fairly broad range of metrics covering most actions you'd expect a central midfielder to be involved in, he performs relatively well.
