Clean sheets

1.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.24 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

Game time. Only 43.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Defensive numbers. Modest 1.58 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 76.1 overall — elite — among the best in the position. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around age 21 (~45), then tapers with age. At 21, Roca sits on 45.4, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Roca's projected Rating — 76.1 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.
