Scout report
S. Vines is a 27-year-old central defender at Colorado Rapids, rated 31.4 overall by Field Insider's model. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (42.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.74 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vines.
On the season, Vines graded 9 for current form (age-blind), on 3 clean sheets and 1.744 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 9). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 31. At 27 Vines is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Colorado Rapids finished 11th of 15 · a lower-table side
1.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (11th of 15) 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 0 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 42.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.74 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 31.4 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
