Clean sheets

3.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 16 clean sheets across 40 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 83.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Defensive volume. 3.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • 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 12.3 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.5 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
