P. Bauer is a 33-year-old central defender at AFC Wimbledon, rated 11.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 465th of 482 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.1% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 4.48 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Bauer.
Judged on this season alone, Bauer graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 74th of 89 of the 89 centre-backs in the League One, on 2 clean sheets and 4.482 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 0 → 11). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 87th of 89 of the 89 centre-backs in the League One. At 33 Bauer is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2021/22 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
4.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (19th of 24) 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.
With a Rating of 11.7, Bauer carries the 87th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 89, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (AFC Wimbledon finished 19th of 24) — 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 (4.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

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 33, Bauer sits on 2.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Bauer's projected Rating — 11.7 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.
