Output in context · Heart Of Midlothian finished 1st of 12 · a title-challenging side
3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 12) 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 32.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 47 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
