Clean sheets

1.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.19 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 28.7% 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 19.2, Andersson carries the 25th-highest potential of the full-backs in the First League of 33. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.32 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
