Clean sheets

4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 10 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 24) 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.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 32.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 30.2, White carries the 2nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the League Two of 23 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
