2 clean sheets in 10 appearances (20% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (18th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Watch points

Game time. Only 19.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 49.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 age 26 (~23), then tapers with age. At 26, Bursik sits on 22.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Bursik's projected Rating — 49.3 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.
