Clean sheets

3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 16 clean sheets across 37 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 90.7% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 92/100).

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.

Outlook

Rated 46.7 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
