We hold a single season for Šulc, 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 80, top 27% of the 15 wingers in the Ligue 1. At 25 Šulc is in his prime years, and a market index of 54 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Šulc missed 6 games through injury (muscle) out of roughly 34 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
