Clean sheets

1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 27 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.28 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.99 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 38.3 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
