Clean sheets

2.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 24) 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.

Outlook

Rated 32.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.41 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 27 (~7), then tapers with age. At 27, Gordon sits on 7.3, at or near its peak. The blue line is Gordon's projected Rating — 32.9 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.
