Output in context · Heracles finished 18th of 18 · a relegation-threatened side
3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 24 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) 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 1 goal and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.3 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
- Defensive volume. 3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 49% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
Rated 54.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
