Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 4 → 8). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 55. At 25 Jacob is in his prime years, and a market index of 70.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Jacob missed 9 games through injury (knee) out of roughly 49 this season. The 5 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2023/24 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
6.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 5 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) 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.
Rated 54.8 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (6.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

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 (~70), then tapers with age. At 25, Jacob sits on 70.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Jacob's projected Rating — 54.8 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.
