    How it works

    This is a complex sentence structure. '可以说 (kěyǐ shuō)' acts as an introductory phrase, meaning 'it can be said' or 'one might say', often used to introduce a statement or opinion that is generally accepted or can be easily inferred. The rest of the sentence '他的表现很好' (his performance is very good) is the main clause, stating the core information. The comma separates the introductory phrase from the main statement.
