Output in context · Sandefjord finished 5th of 16 · an upper-table side
2.76 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 27 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 5 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 72.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.46 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 46.4, Cheng carries the 4th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Eliteserien (top 11%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.76 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.
