Clean sheets

1.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 10 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 20) 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 7 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.43 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 100/100).

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 55.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.47 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 64.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
