Clean sheets

3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 69.7 overall — a strong, regular top-tier starter. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead. Doing it for a lesser side, he profiles as a value buy for a club higher up the table.
