Clean sheets

3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Defensive volume. 3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Outlook

With a Rating of 27.4, Fernandes carries the 11th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League of 22 — though on just 9 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 27, Fernandes sits on 4.9, at or near its peak. The blue line is Fernandes's projected Rating — 27.4 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.
