2.66 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 36 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 15) 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 7 goals and 9 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
