C. Ronan is a 28-year-old defensive midfielder at Colorado Rapids, rated 26.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 514th of 790 in the Major League Soccer. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (38.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.78 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ronan.
Judged on this season alone, Ronan graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 64th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.78 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 9). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 47th of 67 of the 67 defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 28 Ronan is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ronan missed 4 games through injury (abdominal strain, lower-body, hamstring) out of roughly 34 this season. The 24 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 15) 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.
With a Rating of 26.8, Ronan carries the 47th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 67, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Colorado Rapids finished 11th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.78 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~14), then tapers with age. At 28, Ronan sits on 8.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ronan's projected Rating — 26.8 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.
