Scout report
A. Tarbell is a 32-year-old goalkeeper at Houston Dynamo, rated 12.9 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (20.1% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Tarbell.
On the season, Tarbell graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 3 → 5). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 13. At 32 Tarbell is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Tarbell missed 25 games through injury (knee, ruptured cruciate ligament) out of roughly 34 this season. The 4 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Houston Dynamo finished 12th of 15 · a lower-table side
1 clean sheet in 4 appearances (25% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (12th of 15) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 20.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 12.9 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
