Clean sheets

4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

With a Rating of 43.5, Resch carries the 7th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Major League Soccer (top 6%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
