Clean sheets

1.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th 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 3 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.31 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 49.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.45 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook

Rated 64.3 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.45 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
