Clean sheets

1.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.29 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 41.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.1 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 21.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.1 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
