We hold a single season for Raţă, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 34th of 36 of the 36 defensive midfielders in the Liga I. At 33 Raţă is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.
3.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 12 clean sheets across 35 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (6th of 6) 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 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 12.3, Raţă carries the 34th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga I of 36, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Arges Pitesti finished 6th of 6) — 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 moderate defensive volume (3.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× 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 (~4), then tapers with age. At 33, Raţă sits on 1.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Raţă's projected Rating — 12.3 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.
