Clean sheets

3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 65.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

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

Outlook

Rated 46.3 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
