Clean sheets

1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 5 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) 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.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 83.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.6 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Rated 34.2 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 28, Nelsson sits on 6.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Nelsson's projected Rating — 34.2 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.
