Judged on this season alone, Buess graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 31 of the 31 centre-forwards in the Super League, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 24 appearances (0.39 involvements per 90).
We hold a single season for Buess, 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 11, 31st of 31 of the 31 centre-forwards in the Super League. At 33 Buess is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.
3 goals in 24 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 10.8, Buess carries the 31st-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Super League of 31, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (FC Winterthur finished 12th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.39 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).

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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 33, Buess sits on 2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Buess's projected Rating — 10.8 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.
