Clean sheets

0.89 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 8 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 13) 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.

At 26, Jin-Woo sits on 8.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Jin-Woo's projected Rating — 35.1 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.
