Clean sheets

1.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 17 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 37.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.51 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 14.2, Ohizu carries the 28th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Premier Soccer League of 44. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
