We hold a single season for Zhengyu, 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 20, 26th of 54 of the 54 full-backs in the Super League. At 29 Zhengyu is in his prime years, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.
2.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 25 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. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 19.7, Zhengyu carries the 26th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Super League of 54. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.91 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
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 (~6), then tapers with age. At 29, Zhengyu sits on 3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Zhengyu's projected Rating — 19.7 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.
