On the season, Lenz graded 8 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 4.393 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 8). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23. At 31 Lenz is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.9 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

4.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 17 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th of 18) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 22.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 22.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.39 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
