Output in context · Tokyo Verdy finished 20th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
5.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 2 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (20th 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 6.1% 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 41.9 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.14 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
