15 clean sheets in 41 appearances (37% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 24) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Market valueRating

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 (~14), then tapers with age. At 27, Trott sits on 14.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Trott's projected Rating — 43.1 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.
