Output in context · Kyoto Sanga finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
0 clean sheets in 2 appearances (0% of games). Keeping that many behind a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 10.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 7.8 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
