Output in context · Heart Of Midlothian finished 1st of 12 · a title-challenging side
3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 12) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 37.9, Baningime carries the 10th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premiership of 21. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
