Output in context · St. Louis City finished 5th of 15 · an upper-table side
4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 15) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

- Defensive volume. 4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

With a Rating of 41.8, Polvara carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Major League Soccer (top 16%). Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90).
