Clean sheets

3.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 14 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (13th of 15) 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 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.59 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 1.2 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.08 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
