On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 26th of 52 of the 52 central midfielders in the Super League. At 31 Shihao is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.3 reflects that trajectory.
1.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 16) 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 10 goals and 8 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 18, Shihao carries the 26th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Super League of 52. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× 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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 31, Shihao sits on 2.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Shihao's projected Rating — 18 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.
