5 clean sheets in 38 appearances (13% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (15th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 65.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 30.5 overall — below regular-starter level. A a regular starter keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
