Clean sheets

2.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 39 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (18th 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. Going forward he chipped in 6 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 73.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.32 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 33.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.68 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

Market valueRating

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 ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 25, Thomas sits on 6.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Thomas's projected Rating — 33.7 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.
