Clean sheets

3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 16 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 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
Defensive volume. 3.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Game time. Only 26.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 47.5 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.91 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.

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~18), then tapers with age. At 27, Þórðarson sits on 18.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Þórðarson's projected Rating — 47.5 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.
