Output in context · Lokomotiv finished 3rd of 16 · an upper-table side
3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 16) 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 3 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 94.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 26.9, Barinov carries the 18th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 27. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
