Clean sheets

2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 18 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th of 15) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 31.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.3, Wynder carries the 38th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 84, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Los Angeles Galaxy finished 14th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
