Output in context · Fukushima United finished 18th of 20 · a relegation-threatened side
1.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20) 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 78.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.94 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 21.9, Uehata carries the 54th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 100, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Fukushima United finished 18th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.94 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
