Clean sheets

3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 4 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (7th of 22) 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.

Strengths

Defensive volume. 3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

Rated 33.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

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 (~14), then tapers with age. At 29, Gimber sits on 7.8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Gimber's projected Rating — 33.3 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.
