Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 2).
On long-term talent our Rating reads 10. At 37 Vaz is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.2 reflects that trajectory.
1.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 6 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 16) 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.
Rated 10 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 37, Vaz sits on 1.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Vaz's projected Rating — 10 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.
