Clean sheets

2 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 79% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 2 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 45.2 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (2 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 ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 27, Thuler sits on 16.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Thuler's projected Rating — 45.2 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.
