Clean sheets

3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 66% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 47.4 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
