On long-term talent our Rating reads 6, 52nd of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the Super League. At 37 Zheng is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.4 reflects that trajectory.
3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 20 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 5.9, Zheng carries the 52nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super League of 54. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.75 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to 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 (~2), then tapers with age. At 37, Zheng sits on 0.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Zheng's projected Rating — 5.9 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.
