8 clean sheets in 28 appearances (29% of games). Playing behind an upper-table side (4th of 16) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 32.5 overall — below regular-starter level. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
