Domestic-league season · Oakland Roots.
M. Doner is a 32-year-old central defender at Oakland Roots, rated 13.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 736th of 790 in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (24.6% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Doner.
Judged on this season alone, Doner graded 6 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 129th of 148 of the 148 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer, on 2 clean sheets and 0.95 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Doner, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 14, 135th of 148 of the 148 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 32 Doner is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.8 reflects that trajectory.
0.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 13.7, Doner carries the 135th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Major League Soccer of 148 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~7), then tapers with age. At 32, Doner sits on 2.8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Doner's projected Rating — 13.7 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.
