Output in context · Kalmar FF finished 13th of 16 · a lower-table side
5.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 16) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 5.22 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 52.2% 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 29.9, Gustafsson carries the 18th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Allsvenskan of 32 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.22 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.
