Clean sheets

3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (16th of 22) 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 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.37 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Creativity. 0.37 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

Game time. Only 31.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Age curve. At 38, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 8.8 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.36 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 38, Rodríguez sits on 1.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Rodríguez's projected Rating — 8.8 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.
