Clean sheets

4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume across 2 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 4) 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. 4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 96.7/100).
Ceiling. High potential at just 18 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 33.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 80.6 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 18, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

At 18, Mackley sits on 72.5, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Mackley's projected Rating — 80.6 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.
