Output in context · Cork City finished 10th of 10 · a relegation-threatened side
5.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 20 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 10) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 5.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 33.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 3.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
