Clean sheets

2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 35 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 7 goals and 7 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 78.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.47 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 48.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

Market valueRating

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 (~37), then tapers with age. At 26, Just sits on 18, at or near its peak. The blue line is Just's projected Rating — 48.3 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.
