Clean sheets

1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 39.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.95 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 51.5 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
