Clean sheets

3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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 79.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 88.9/100).

Watch points

Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 28.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~31), then tapers with age. At 34, Mandi sits on 8.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Mandi's projected Rating — 28.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
