Clean sheets

4.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 100% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Defensive volume. 4.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

Rated 59.5 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
