Output in context · Francs Borains finished 12th of 17 · a lower-table side
4.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (12th of 17) 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
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
- Defensive volume. 4.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 58.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 40.5, Bastian carries the 11th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Challenger Pro League (top 38%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Francs Borains finished 12th of 17) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
