Clean sheets

3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) 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 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 72% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 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 42.1 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
