Scout report

Squad depthFull-back

P. Ng is a 30-year-old full-back at Cardiff, rated 32.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 151st of 213 on scout potential in the League One. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (43.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ng.

Judged on this season alone, Ng graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 19 of the 19 full-backs in the League One, on 0 clean sheets and 3.4 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 34 → 9). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 15th of 19 of the 19 full-backs in the League One. At 30 Ng is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 7.4 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 10 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 43.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 32.3, Ng carries the 15th-highest potential of the full-backs in the League One of 19 — though on just 10 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
