Clean sheets

1.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) 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 4 goals and 7 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 71.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.77 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 31.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

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 (~8), then tapers with age. At 30, Zubkov sits on 6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Zubkov's projected Rating — 31.3 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.
