Output in context · Reading finished 23rd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 3 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (23rd of 24) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 10.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 37.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
