Clean sheets

0.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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 9 goals and 15 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 70.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 1.06 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Creativity. 0.66 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 0.62 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 48.9 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
