We hold a single season for Xiao, 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 29, top 15% of the 54 full-backs in the Super League. At 20 Xiao is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 6.9 reflects that trajectory.
3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 11 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 16) 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.
With a Rating of 29, Xiao carries the 8th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super League of 54 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.

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 (~8), then tapers with age. At 20, Xiao sits on 6.9, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Xiao's projected Rating — 29 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.
