Clean sheets

2.35 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 15 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
