On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 34 Matsubara is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Mito Hollyhock finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
3 clean sheets in 6 appearances (50% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (14th of 20) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 31.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 11.5 overall — below regular-starter level. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
