Clean sheets

2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (14th of 14) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.17 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Game time. Only 16.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 8.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

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 (~4), then tapers with age. At 33, Mendieta sits on 1.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Mendieta's projected Rating — 8.4 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.
