Clean sheets

2.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 12) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 36.8% 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 20.7, Pinzón carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the USL Championship of 59 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
