2 clean sheets in 7 appearances (29% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (21st of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 15.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 37.8 overall — developing / rotation level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
